I borrowed this code from Phate's website I hope you don't mind if you doi'll just delete it. But How do I make it so I get the email instead of him?
| Code: |
<form method="post">
Your Email: <br><input type="text" name="email" size="20" /><br /> <P>
Subject: <br><input type="text" name="subject" size="20" /><br /> <P>
Message: <br><textarea rows=5 cols=30 name="message"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Contact Me!" /> |

You made me laugh with that. Thanks. 
Have a read of this - obviously you'll have to change a few things, but you get the idea.. I hope. |

Ok I don't have a clue about php where do I edit?
PHP:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$to = "your@email.com";
$subject = "Registration to newsletter";
$message = $_POST['email'];
mail($to, $subject, $message);
echo "You are now registered to the newsletter!";
} else { ?>
<form method="post">
Your e-mail address: <input type="text" name="email" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="send the mail" />
<?php } ?>

Change: your@email.com to your own e-mail
Change:
| Code: |
| <input type="text" name="email" /> |
To:
| Code: |
| <textarea name="email"></textarea> |
And it should work fine. |

or you could use this:
| Code: |
<form action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>" method="post">
Your Email: <input type="text" name="email" size="20" /><br />
Subject: <input type="text" name="subject" size="20" /><br />
Message: <textarea rows=5 cols=30 name="message"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Contact Me!" />
<?
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$email = $_POST['email'];
$to = "your@email.com";
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$message = str_replace(array("\\","Content-Type:","bcc:","cc:","MIME-Version:",
"Content-Transfer-Encoding:","%"),"",$_POST['message']);
mail($to, $subject, $message, "From: $email\n");
echo "Thanks";
}
?>
|
Save that in the same php page or rename the forms action to a page with the php on it. Wallah! |

Ok Razz's one never worked as it gave me loads of text I never wanted and when I used yours I ended up with this. I hate freewebs.
http://www.freewebs.com/corrosiongfx/Request.htm
Is there anyother way I could try it out like a different web host? |

Firstly, when I had a look at your source code, you've forgot the end php tag
| Code: |
<!-- Content --><br><br>
<img src="images/hr_top.gif" width="528" height="58" border="0">
<blockquote><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000000"><strong>
<H3>This form is inoperational!</H3> <Provisional users can't create forms action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>" method="post">
Your Email: <input type="text" name="email" size="20" /><br />
Subject: <input type="text" name="subject" size="20" /><br />
Message: <textarea rows=5 cols=30 name="message"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Contact Me!" />
<?
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$email = $_POST['email'];
$to = "your@email.com";
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$message = str_replace(array("\\","Content-Type:","bcc:","cc:","MIME-Version:",
"Content-Transfer-Encoding:","%"),"",$_POST['message']);
mail($to, $subject, $message, "From: $email\n");
echo "Thanks";
} ?> </strong></font></blockquote>
<br><br><br><br><br><br>
<img src="images/hr_bot.gif" width="528" height="44" border="0">
<!-- Content -->
|
..And you can't run PHP on a html page..rename it to request.php  |

well even if he does rename it ...does freewebs support php hosting.....???
i think this one site provides free php hosting
www.100webspace.com....
if freewebs does then its well and good..but one prob is that you cannot upload more than 50 files unless you are a premium user. |

You can if you put them in different folders. Noticed that when I uploaded a forum on a site ages ago. I've not used Freewebs in a long time though..
EDIT: Just had a look on freewebs and it looks like free accounts don't get to use PHP. Bah!

Unfortunately at this time FreeWebs does not support PHP and you cannot run these scripts from your FreeWebs site. |
