I’ve seen them all over, and I searched on google, but again…nothing to help me. I want the thing that gives you the option to enter your email, your name, and the message along with the send mail button and it automatically goes to the email you specify… How? ---

You can use part of the code given from [http://www.mrbobdouglas.com/dev/errorpage\_gen.php](http://www.mrbobdouglas.com/dev/errorpage_gen.php) the Functions Generator. What exactly are you trying to get done here? There are a ton of free send e-mail scripts out their. FormMail is one I think. [http://www.mattsscripts.co.uk/](http://www.mattsscripts.co.uk/) also has one. ---

Why is everything I ask for ALWAYS end up coming back as Flash or PHP. Dangit I only know HTML and don’t want to use Flash. ---

Possibly because you’re in the serverside scripting forums of a primarily flash forum. ---

Well, it’s Server Side and Scripting. Not Flash Actionscript. ---

PHP is a server side scripting language that many of the forum users are familiar. No, php is not the only way, but it will probably be the easiest way… theres a tutorial for it on kirupa and a thread about it by jubba in the best of kirupa forum. I’m leaving it up to you to find it ---

Download FrontPage 2002/XP And use their Form. Edit the properties to send the results to your e-mail. It uses NO PHP, and it works. 🙂 ---

[http://freespace.virgin.net/sizzling.jalfrezi/forms.htm](http://freespace.virgin.net/sizzling.jalfrezi/forms.htm) there is a tutorial about forms with HTML. That will also do it for you. PHP is really a good idea when you want to add more stuff and easily format the text that you want sent. ---
