PHP form submit and send email

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 02.2012

Hi,
I am now designing a form, where an user has to enter some information in the input fields provided.

=> In the second step, I need to provide a view of what he has filled and there should be two buttons “BACK” and “Submit”, where he can verify the details he entered and if he needs any changes, he can click back and edit the details or he can submit if everything is fine.

=> once he submits the form, A mail should be triggered with an PDF attachment to one of the executive mail id, that a customer filled the a form.

I was really confused where to start with and how ??

Please suggest me.

regards,
Trivirkam.

<?php

if (isset($_REQUEST['email']))

//if "email" field is filled up, send email

{

//send email

$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;

$subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ;

$message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;

mail("[email protected]", "$subject",

$message, "From:" . $email);

echo "Thank you for using our mail form";

}

else

//if "email" is not filled out, display the form

{

echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'>

Email: <input name='email' type='text' /><br />

Subject: <input name='subject' type='text' /><br />

Message:<br />

<textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'>

</textarea><br />

<input type='submit' />

</form>";

}

?>

Success!
