How to let clients post form data to a page on my website?

Hi,

How can I allow people to fill in a form and have the data be posted to a page on my website and to my email address?

You will need a server side language and a database to accomplish this.

Once a user submits the form the information should be validated and processed then stored in the database and an email can be sent to you as well.

Your website should pull the stored information from the database.

If you have your own webspace php/mysql is likely already installed by default.

If not and you are trying to setup yourself up locally I suggest having a look at XAMPP.

if you want them to fill in a page that must automatically emailed to your address when completed, get a web designer package like Webplus X4
