I try using this

[FONT=Courier New]\<form method="[COLOR=#0000ff] **POST** [/COLOR]" action="[COLOR=#0000ff] **mailer.php** [/COLOR]"\>  
\<input type=“text” name="[COLOR=#0000ff] **name** [/COLOR]" size=“19”\>\<br\>  
\<br\>  
\<input type=“text” name="[COLOR=#0000ff] **email** [/COLOR]" size=“19”\>\<br\>  
\<br\>  
\<textarea rows=“9” name="[COLOR=#0000ff] **message** [/COLOR]" cols=“30”\>\</textarea\>  
\<br\>  
\<br\>  
\<input type=“submit” value=“Submit” name="[COLOR=#0000ff] **submit** [/COLOR]"\>  
\</form\>[/FONT]

[FONT=Courier New]for my contact.htm[/FONT]  
[FONT=Courier New]and[/FONT]

[COLOR=#0000ff]\<?[/COLOR][COLOR=#000050]php[/COLOR] [COLOR=#006610]if[/COLOR]COLOR=#0000ff[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]{[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000050]$to[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#666666]“you@you.com”[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000050]$subject[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#666666]“Form Tutorial”[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000050]$name\_field[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000050]$\_POST[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff][[/COLOR][COLOR=#666666]‘name’[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff]][/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000050]$email\_field[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000050]$\_POST[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff][[/COLOR][COLOR=#666666]‘email’[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff]][/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000050]$message[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000050]$\_POST[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff][[/COLOR][COLOR=#666666]‘message’[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff]][/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000050]$body[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]=[/COLOR] [COLOR=#666666]“From: $name\_field

[FONT=Courier New]It works, now the question is [COLOR=#000050]echo[/COLOR] [COLOR=#666666]“Data has been submitted to $to!”[/COLOR]; \<------ can i change it to my own .html page? or i mean redirect from other pages?[/FONT]

[FONT=Courier New]Thanks![/FONT]
