    Looking for a form to place on an HTML page that will accept not only a number of fields (name, email, etc) but a file (MS Word, TXT, or PDF) as well. Contents can either be stored in a SQL database, or emailed to an account. Any help is appreciated.

    The following tutorial should help you to create the HTML form yourself.

    http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp

    The tutorial also includes links to examples of sending form results via email. You can use the input type file to allow users to upload a file.

    Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, the actual making of the form wasn't the problem, took me a few minutes to do. The problem is the submission of data. The MAILTO command used on that link won't incorporate a file, just text, plus I rather not process the email client side.

    there are lot of security flaws in using open source formmail scripts, I can help you setup most secure formmail script that can send form contents and save it to database or as file if needed. Addtionally i can assure, none of mail sending scripts can be exploited to send spams with our proper submission. Just pm me with your exact requirements i shall help have it done with in minimal time.
