how can i make a form mailer script with PHP?
I am very new to php.
the form is:
<form method=GET action="contactform.php">
Your Nameinput type="text" name="name"><br>
Your E-Mailinput type="text" name="email"><br>
Comments/Questions/Suggestions/etc.<br>
<textarea name="questcomment" rows="6" cols="50">
</textarea><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"><p>
and i don't know how to like get this information mailed to my e-mail adress.

First of all, use method=POST instead of GET in your form.

The script would be something like this:

$message = "A message from $name ({$email})\n\n";
$message .= $questcomment;

if(mail("you@yourmail.com","Some subject",$message)) echo("Message succesfuly sent. Thank you.");

ok i made the script what you said and stuff but when i click submit in the form is does this:

The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because the address is incorrect.

Please try the following:

If you typed the page address in the Address bar, check that it is entered correctly.

Open the www.nethorde.com home page and then look for links to the information you want.
Click Search to look for information on the Internet.



HTTP 405 - Resource not allowed
Internet Explorer

I have it linking to the file and it is the right filename and stuff?? do you know what is wrong?

No idea. It´s not a code problem since I tested it here and it works perfectly. Try talking to your host to see if they know the answer.
