26204EMAIL.PHPhttp://scripts.franciscocharrua.com/email.phpThis is an illustration of how to send email through PHP. I did not create a function because I feel mail() is already a wrapper all by itself. I left the first parameter empty because I feel that the "to row" is not any more important than any other row in the header stringPHP > Tips and Tutorials > Form ProcessingOct 15, 2006Francisco Charrua
This is a simple tutorial that explains how to make a form in PHP. Forms can be used in many different ways on your web page. It is almost impossible to find a webpage today that does not utilize some type of form.
One recent evening the Phanatic and a few friends were splitting an extra large pizza and a few six packs of Jolt. The Phanatic was pontificating as usual about good program design and problem generalization. One of the PHP apostles, probably egged on by a Jolt buzz, challenged the Phanatic to "practice what you preach" and design a program that solved a class of problems rather a single task. Another of the assembled brethren suggested the Phanatic use the NuSphere suite he had been extolling recently. The gauntlet was thrown down.
Many sites allow users to upload files through an HTML form. While there are many security issues that should be addressed before allowing file uploads, the actual mechanisms to allow this are fairly easy
In the last article, the Phanatic was leading an expedition into a largely uncharted area. The conceptual project was a generalized form handler. The task's starting point was Matt Wright's famous "formmail" and included adding many more bells and whistles. While putting together the last tome, time and space were closing in on us, and in an effort not to strain the Phanatic's rapidly aging brain, we pulled into shore for a rest. Let's review the project's design goals before setting out to sea again.
