PHP Form - Ability to post data to a MySQL database and email Confirmation to registrant
Looking for a way to post data to a database when registrants enter info into the form. Also looking for a way the same form will send two emails, one to myself and one to registrant confirming registration. Have looked around on the web and there is much stuff out on this topic when you look for asp, but not concise stuff for people that want to know how to do it in using PHP.
I use Dreamweaver MX 2004. I'm using the PhAkt extension. Database is MySQL.
I want to be able to pick out a few of the form variables and use them in an email that will be sent to two addresses to confirm registration.
Just a simple email stating (potential variables in ALL CAPS):
--Thank you JOHN SMITH for registering. Your VISA card has been billed, numbers ending in 4444.
I think that you get the idea. It would be great to have this done by one of the DMX Zone authors.

I can do that... well a version of, I nicked it from somewhere but I forget what the site is, nehow, it allows you to take info from form fields (eg name/ options selected) and stick them in a email and send it, and it automatically sends one to you too. I used it for sending automated responses to requests for more information about a product, but I think itd be arite for what youre doing with a lil bit of editing?
Nehow, this site doesnt seem to want to let me copy n paste stuff in for some reason, so drop me a email if ya havent sorted this by now n I'll send ya the code back. Im xXx_Eternity_xXx@hotmail.com
