basically mate, when someone fills out that form, the information they have entered is sent to code (fm.php). This code will probably check the data for errors etc, and then depending on what they have set the code to do, either write it to a file, email you, or what ever

if you want i can give you a script which will take in a users entered information and output them to a htm file/txt

maybe even email you..

Hi Jamie,Thank you so much!!!
I have some questions for you:

1. How do I know my webserver have PHP enabled? how to set it up?

2. I upload three files you asked then did a quick test, but it always end up with the msg 'Please fill in all fields!', looked at the code, because name,url and email are empty, it that because I don't have PHP enable?
3. Do you have any script can send directly to email without write to a file?

Thanks!
Roger
