    I am creating a new website for a client and the hosting company they use does not have any scripting languages available for the users.

    I am trying to create a contact us form for their website.

    Am I able to create a process side of the form on my host( which allows php and such) and just have the Action on the submit side of the my clients site go to my sites process side and send out the mail that way?

    Tell them to get a different host. It's not going to be worth the time to find a work-around, when just about every host on earth supports php, asp, or another.

    Agreed. My suggestion is just a work-around and isn't recommended.

    I went ahead and just coded a PHP process page on my server once i found out that it was possible to gather the data from another server and have it just process on my side.

    Agreed that their host isnt really a host at all.
    Its on of the page builder companies that you really cant do anything with at all.

    Thanks for the help.
