I have a form I'm putting together. The processing will be on a PHP script that will take all the field names and print them out on the email it sends to me. No problem there.

I can see plenty of ways to work with files, i.e. read them from disk, manipulate them, save them and serve them but not to do it straight from the database and to the browser. I don't really want to put it on disk as it's all for...

I am a begginer with not too much time on my hand. I do some html pages with Dreamweaver and with some minor Flash actionscript and I have a minor ability (with the help of lots of tutorials) to do some PHP.

My HTML syntax looks something like this: <a href="mailto:xxx@yyy.com?Subject=<? print $subject ?>&Body=<? print urlencode($url) ?>">Send an Email</a> (I've had to URLENCODE the variables first, and it works. If I don't do so, then it doesn't work.) The...
