coder2000 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2004 http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/email-systems/email-utilities/ is my formmail script.

rapco 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2004 I was asking the same question a few weeks ago.. i found this solution (althought a do know a feedback services called netgear, at http://www.tripod.lycos.com/):You can have a form that send you the results... but the message has to be sent by the visitor using a mail configured software as eudora or outlook... (this is not a good solution)And, you can do it using cgi... ususally host servers have this services, but if they dont, you can look for a free cgi feedback services... or.you can explore php and MySQL... and CMS's the feedback modules are pretty easy to use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jipman 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2004 Additionally, you could put up some error messages and stuff, but this is all you need, of course you need a server with php support and that allows you to use the mail function. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry I didn't make it more clear. The focus of the page isn't scripts as you can tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I need very much a feed back form on my site! thanks!waiting for reply! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What are you trying to accomplish? If you need specific information you would have to create a user input form. Personally I like to use javascript to accomplish feedback forms as there is only one line of script to deal with in addition to the actual input form. Here is a simple script with a basic form: <FORM ACTION="mailto:yourusername@youresite.com" ENCTYPE="text/plain" onSubmit="return checkForm(this);" method=post> <table border="0" width="500"> <tr> <td>First Name: Last Name:<br> <input type=text size=20 name="FIRST"><input type=text size=20 name="LAST"><br> Address:<br> <input type=text size=45 name="ADDRESS"><br> City:<br> <input type=text size=26 name="CITY"> <br> State: Zip:<br> <input type=text size=2 name="STATE"> <input type=text size=5 name="ZIP"><br> Phone: <input type=text size=26 name="PHONE"><br> Email: <input type=text size=26 name="EMAIL"><br> </td></tr></table><br> <INPUT type=SUBMIT value="Submit "> </FORM> You can add as many fields as you need to to get whatever information you need. If you want to protect the email address from harvest robots, it can be used in conjunction with the email protector script I posted yesturday in the Designing and HTML thread. If you decide to use this script and need some help just ask. pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rapco 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2004 pbolduc, the script you posted sends the mail using a mail configured account (pre-configured on the visitors e-mail), that's why i don't think it's a good method for posting..the php feedbakc is a better option...

IT SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR COLLECTING SECURE INFORMATION such as credit info and the like. While I really like javascript, I am coming to realize the power of php. Before becoming a member here, I never even knew what php was. My goal in posting here is to help others as much as I can with the little I know. I am totally self taught and understand the frustrations of trying to learn. This is the first forum I have ever been associated with. I appreciate you pointing out any aspects of any of my posts that may be accomplished in a better way. That's how we all learn. If you would, please point out more clearly exactly what the risks are in using the script I posted so we all will have a better understanding. I have used the script and it functions well.

rapco 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2004 I actually don't know wich one gives more security.. but i also know.. not averybody uses an e-mail program... most people use webmail... so those visitors won't be able to send the form... with php or cgi that's not a problem... the visiter push "submit" and that's all they got to know... when u design, you have to imagine all your visiotr as newbies, or many people may get confused... (i don't know if that's well written, my native language is spanish)PHP is excelent, i think... So, i would rather send it through php (you know you'll get it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since I've yet to learn php, I'll have to go back to cgi thanks, pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
