Can anyone spare a half hour? pls?

7 replies
:pAnyone who isn't entirely too busy, and who knows how to help me, can you please? I would certainly appreciate it because I've spent way to much time in forums, emails, and phone calls trying to figure this out already - unsuccessfully.

I have a website that I am putting together and currently I am trying to get my 'contact' page set up. This is it: Design Style

The exact page...so as everyone can see, I already have it made how I want it to look so I don't need any other 'scripts' or whatever to make it look any differently...ALL that I need now is to have it where a visitor can put in their information then send it out to my email as is.

I'm not too savvy with code, so if you could PLEASE let me know if you can help me real quick in getting my code set up...I swear I will be your best friend for life (haha), well...I really would appreciate it if nothing else.

I can give you my email, OR...if you have Skype, or Windows Live Messenger my screename is Brekat23, or if you have AIM, my screename is Bresicle. So send me a message, and we can get this done quickly!! Like...bada bing, quickly!! --hopefully.

I want to continue working on finishing my site, and this is holding me up...I really don't want to outsource if I can help it because I really can't invest anything into this if I can figure it out another way first.

I would be most grateful to anyone willing to do this with me really fast, you don't even know (haha). But please let me know if you are interested, I work online most evenings from 3:00pm to 11:00pm eastern standard time so I'm here!! Get in contact!!

Talk with you soon!

Thanks!!!!

    You need a script to process the form. Your host probably has a script already installed, you just need to learn the name and location of it so you can point your form to the script for processing. That is something you'll have to get from your host, as there is no single answer to that question, it depends on the host. Using a script doesn't change the look of the page.

    Another way to process the form is to simply have it emailed to you. Here's the code for that:

    HTML Code:
    <form method="post" action="mailto:you@your_address.com" enctype="text/plain">
    The enctype = "text/plain" part formats the email you get so it doesn't look like a bunch of gibberish characters mixed in with the message.

    The drawbacks to this method is that that email address is on your page for spammer's spiders to grab, and some browsers will pop up an alert to the user that the form is being submitted by email and ask if it's okay. That's not a problem for most people, but some may not like it and cancel out.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
