Hi

I have successfully added kirupa’s php contact form to a site. But now I want to modify it for a order page. As in the link i have given here ( pls have a look at the order page from the link below) I need to send a mail with the name of the product and quantity with the following details like name, email etc…

I am not sure how to add a text area into this PHP script. If anyone has some PHP knowledge in this pls help me. That would be greatly helpful since I am more of a designer.

thx
