PHP form help

[MagickMoney]

After building a form for my website i relized that when you hit the submit button it was not sending info to my server. after searching for the answer i realized that i did not have the php file and script on the server to use the information the form was sending.

i have searched and searched and for some reason can not find the script to put into the php file server side to make this work.

does anyone have any helpful script knowledge for me.

my submit form ends like this

<form action="appdata/application.php" method="POST">
<input type="submit" name="formSubmit" value="Submit Form">
</form>

i just need the script to put into the application.php file to process the info.


All help welcomed.


Thanks all

You could set up the form so that it mails you instead.

I'm afraid I can't help you with the php. However, someone here must know how to do it.

When the script is written, there has to be knowledge of the fields that make up the form in order to process them. You also need to know what you want to do with the data. For example, does it update a database, sends an email with the information in the form, etc.. I am not even touching the validation of the input and the associated safety measures to harden the form against possible attackers who may use it.

this will process your form, but as already mentioned, there are some other steps required to get a form working:
