....... just cant find anyone to supply both with simple explainations to upload to my webpage.......

Been there and done that, many times. Not too long ago spent ages trying to get a simple non-technical explanation on the basic mechanics, and some simple webforms working

Spoke to many experts and actually hired 2 of them to do the jobs, one of them finally got the webforms working but was totally incabable of explaining to me the basic steps involved so I may do it myself next time, though I asked him to explain repeatedly. All he could do was give a geek explanation which was quite confusing.

Have spent a few long yrs trying to get easy plain english step-by-step details, all to no avail. Luckily most of my webforms are now working but after lots of time there are still a few which do not function.

MY situation may have been resolved! One of my mates is going to lend me his microsoft frontpage prog. So my form problem may be sorted!

Lol, I can do a form in two seconds:

Here.

<?php
$youremail="[email protected]";
$file = "filename.php";
if($action=="process"){

mail($youremail,$subject,$message);
echo <<<END
Your message has been sent.
END;

} else {
echo <<<END
<form action="$file?action=process" method="post">
Your Name: <input type="text" name="name">
<br>
Your Email: <input type="text" name="email">
<br>
Your Message:
<br>
<textarea rows="10" cols="30"></textarea>
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send a Message!">
</form>
END;

}
?>

Make sure to edit where it says $file="filename.php"; to the file name you make it on your server, and edit $youremail=... to your email.

Best regards,

The new c-panel with fantastico installed has a form builder which you can install.
It is the free version but will take up to 100 fields.(more than enough)

Very very easy to use.
