Hey DP forums, I need some help. Basically, I currently run a website design business, and one of my customers just requested a quote request form on his website. How can I make a form (with name, e-mail, and message area for example), so that all of the info is sent to him when the customer presses submit? I have tried to research on this before, and I found many dead ends, saying that it had to be done in PHP, not in HTML or Javascript. So what should I do? Thanks in advance!
Well there's a few ways to do it. http://www.tutorialguide.net/php_contact_form_tutorial.html Is for php, take a look at that.
yeah. basically, I need to make a form that includes things like, name, e-mail, zip codes(for shipping), and message. Much like the quote request you would see on sites like UPS.
The form itself would have to be made in HTML, and you can use an already existing php form mail script to send the information to a particular email address.
