Lyte · Aug 16, 2005

Howdy!

I hope someone can help me with this one.

I don't know how to write the HTML that will create a little box/square in which people can type their name and email address so they can receive emails.

I need help creating that box/square and some guidence on just how this info would be/should be get captured once they fill in the informtion!

Many thanks in advance!

um okay I am not sure if this is what you mean but I think you want a form.

<form action="page.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><BR>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><BR>
<input type="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

that's the form people fill in. Then you can use it in a php script to store into a mysql database to be used later.

I hope this is what you mean lolz.

Just to add to Red Eyes Arena you can then use a program like phplist.com to do the mailings and signups. You just need to have PHP/MySQL on your web host and you will be good to go.
