Hey everyone. I'm currently making a website for an event and i need a registration page. I can setup the forms no problem but i just need to know how to get all that information sent to my e-mail address so i can record it. I don't really want to use ASP but i will if i have to. Is there a way i can do this with javascript or maybe php. An in depth explanation would be great. Thanks so much.

I forgot to mention that i don't want it done by using the users mail account to send the form.

hi,

the easiest way is to use php, for example:

<?

mail("youremail@host.com, "New User", "New User Registered, ID: $Name Pass: $Pass", "From: New User Form");

?>

make the html form page have a method of POST and action of the name of the mail script page, call your name textbox "Name" and you pass "Pass"

if you need more help email me <croddz182@hotmail.com>

your form's action can be set to mailto:youremailaddress@you.com. this is probably the most simplistic method. note, that you may have difficulty with some users, when they do not have their email setup or are on a public system... etc.

I do this using PHP (i also do no like ASP). If your server supports PHP, I can send out the script.
