    Hi,

    Please take a look a this:
    http://ramindusri.cu.cc/harsha/

    This is dummy page for a contest I plan to held.
    You can see there is a simple form under No. 03.
    I managed to make it so when a user fill out those two fields, those info will be saved in a txt file using following guide.
    http://www.hotscripts.com/forums/php/17187-form-text-file.html

    Problem I have is when user click Submit button it takes him to another page.
    I want to show him a message in the same page. Something like "We got your info", "Thanks for participating".
    This message could appear under that Submit button or pop-up or something similar.

    Thanks

    I got it to work with the way I wanted using iframe.

    One more question. Please check the form.
    I want to change the font and color of the msg "Thanks for Participating"

    Now it looks like this:
    print "Thanks for Participating";

    Thanks

    If you have the PHP files then you can change the message from there and apply a SPAN to do the styling.

    If using some plugin then do the settings.

    Hi HRA! I see that you are using WP.

    I invite you to try our Form Builder Plugin, PlanSo Forms: https://wordpress.org/plugins/planso-forms/

    The forms are very easy to build through a drag-and-drop interface and the information entered by your users is sent to you through an auto-responder email. Additionally you can choose between a standard "pop-up" confirming the submission of a form or an individual "thank you page" to which your users are re-directed.

    Feel free to check it out and let me know your point of view.

    Cheers, Pablo
