Hi,

 

Thanks for the help, that seems to be working now.

The form is ment to send the email to the email address got from the first text box and the id is needed to be able to make a link to link people back to the site.

However even though it now seems that no errors are coming up it is also not sending the email or saying that it has been sent.

Do you think that I have gone about this all wrong?

Any thoughts are much appriciated.

 

Cheers,

Colin

try this,

i assume that the first form is passing

id via GET
