Thank you for choosing FormToEmail by FormToEmail.com

Step 1:

To put the form on your webpage, copy the code below as it is, and paste it into your webpage:

<form action="FormToEmail.php" method="post">
<table border="0" bgcolor="#ececec" cellspacing="5">
<tr><td><font face="arial" size="2">Name</font></td><td><input type="text" size="30" name="Name"></td></tr>
<tr><td><font face="arial" size="2">Email address</font></td><td><input type="text" size="30" name="Email"></td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top"><font face="arial" size="2">Comments</font></td><td><textarea name="Comments" rows="6" cols="30"></textarea></td></tr>
<tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td><input type="submit" value="Send"><font face="arial" size="1">&nbsp;&nbsp;FormToEmail by <a href="http://FormToEmail.com">FormToEmail.com</a></font></td></tr>
</table>
</form>

Step 2:

Enter the email address below to send the form to:

*/

$my_email = "mysite.com";

/*

Enter the continue link to offer the user after the form is sent.  If you do not change this, your visitor will be given a continue link to your homepage:

If you do change it, remove the "/" symbol below and replace with the name of the page to link to, eg: "mypage.htm" or "http://www.elsewhere.com/page.htm"

*/

$continue = "/";

/*


Step 3:

Save this file (FormToEmail.php) and upload it together with your webpage to your webspace.  IMPORTANT - The file name is case sensitive!  You must save it exactly as it is named above!  Do not put this script in your cgi-bin directory (folder) it may not work from there.

THAT'S IT, FINISHED!

You do not need to make any changes below this line.
