You can do this. You will need 2 pages. The first page is your form. They fill out the info, and hit submit. The first page will also eventually be responsible for sending the email. The second page will get all of the information, display it, and then create another form. The new form will only contain hidden fields, it won't have anything editable. So the HTML may look something like this:

Your name: John SmithYour age: 40Your job: Assassin<form action="page1.php" method="post"><input type="hidden" name="name" value="John Smith"><input type="hidden" name="age" value="40"><input type="hidden" name="job" value="Assassin"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Email"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Edit Info"></form>

So, the form has all the information they just sent, plus two submit buttons, and will submit back to page 1. Page 1 will check which button they pressed:

$action = $_POST['submit'];if ($action == "Send Email"){  //get everything out of $_POST, and send the email}if ($action == "Edit Info"){  //get everything out of $_POST, and re-display the form with the information filled in}
