submit a form
Hi,
I have a form, but I don't know how to submit it using php. Is there a way to email the form? I tried using mailto:joe@doe.com but it emailed an empty message. Also, would this mailto: work even if the person was using webmail and did not set up an outlook account?
My webhosting has unlimited mysql, so if i need to create that to save the form into there, that would be fine. But I'd prefer to have it emailed to me (or any other way in which i would have easy access to the data). Thanks!
how would i fix the form to email it correctly?
or what php page would i need to create to save the form on mysql?
This is the code for my form:
<form action="mailto:rksprst@gma il.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain" name="form">
<p>
Name of item:
<input name="name" type="text" id="name">
Price: $
<input name="price" type="text" id="price">
</p>
<p>Description of item:
<textarea name="description" cols="70" rows="5" wrap="PHYSICAL" id="textarea"></textarea>
</p>
<p>Upload an image:
<input name="image" type="file" id="image">
</p>
<p>Email address:
<input name="email" type="text" id="email">
WE WILL NOT SEND YOU ANY JUNK EMAIL!</p>
<p>
<input name="private" type="radio" value="private">
Keep my email address private. (BHJK.com will contact you on behalf of buyers)
<input name="public" type="radio" value="public">
I would like post my email address (Buyers will email me directly) </p>
