I searched every thread on these formus but didn’t find any info that I need.

I have a php form and I need to be able after submitting to display success text in the same window is it possible?

```php

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$to = "blah@blah.com";
$subject = "web form";
$name_field = $_POST['name'];
$email_field = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
 
$body = "From: $name_field
 E-Mail: $email_field
 Message:
 $message";
if (!eregi ('^[[:alnum:]][a-z0-9_\.\-]*@[a-z0-9\.\-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['email'])))) 
{
     echo 'error!! try again';
     exit;
}  

$headers = "From: $email";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);   
echo "message sent: $to!";
mail($to, $subject, $body);

} else {

echo "wrong email address, check the email and try again!";

}
?>

```

so for errors and success I’d like to be able to display information in the same page without opening a new window. of ocourse if this can be done
