justsomeguy Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 First you need an actual form element on the page. Other than that, you don't "tell" the form what to do, the form just submits all of the data to your PHP page and then you write PHP code to do whatever you want with the form data, like put it in an email and send it. This is the section on how to process forms in general: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_forms.asp And there's a basic example of using PHP to send an email here: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mail.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
