What exactly do you want to make? A form where you can enter recommendations and you want to know from what person it is?

Lets say, i want to sign up people to sell my product and they got a customer for me how do i know its from him or her?
You can give them a specific link. For example: http://your-site.com/signup.php?ref=User123. At signup.php you just check if $_GET['ref']is set. Then you you can read the user out.
Example:
Example:
<?php
//Your form here
//Your validation here
//if everything is valid:
if(isset($_GET['ref'])){
echo "This user found your site because of the user {$_GET['ref']}";
}
sorry forgot the ?>
<?php
//Your form here
//Your validation here
//if everything is valid:
if(isset($_GET['ref'])){
echo "This user found your site because of the user {$_GET['ref']}";
}
?>

So are you saying , I will give out the webpage address with a user id so it can be user 123 user 124 etc..
Then i make a signup.php file and i can send that signup.php file to my email?
