I've used AlienForm2 to power several e-mail forms. It's free.

Your web host should provide something. I've never seen one that didn't - well, maybe not never, but not in years.

I'm using the host provided form already but I'm having trouble editing and positioning it the way I want....

How much can you alter those that your host provides?

I would imagine you could alter it as much as you like but I wouldn't add any fields, change any element names or mess with the form tag. Aside from that I wouldn't think it would make a difference.

Just keep a copy of the original in case anything goes awry.

Don't think this works with MAC configurations, but 95% of your users should have no problem.

<form name="email" method="post" action="mailto:your_email_address_here"
onSubmit="return mailMe( this.form )" enctype="text/plain">

your name:<br>
<input type="text" name="SUBMITTED BY" size="30"><br><br>

your email address:<br>
<input type="text" name="EMAIL ADDRESS" size="30"><br><br>

your message:<br>
<textarea NAME="COMMENTS" ROWS="3" COLS="30" wrap="virtual"></textarea><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>

Thanks keyplyr,
I guess I wasn't clear on what info I wanted to collect by email but I need a few more lines of info to collect.....

I'm using GoDaddy as my host but I can't find a cgi form to use....

you could always post the form code and we could see all the fields and post something.

or, if you use php I have a simple email form I use. If you wanted I could send it to you. I have one that is well commented, or you could sticky me the url and I could put it together for you.

Can you tell I'm bored and want to do a little scripting?

As Jatar suggests, it would be helpful if you posted what you need. Lots of ways to do it. You could just add a few more inputs to the form fields that I posted. This is by far the most inefficient way to do this, but likewise the easiest.

Should I post the actual questions or the number of questions needed?

I assume now that you don't even have a form of any kind and that, as well as an email script is what you need. I also have no idea how much html you know, I am assuming not too much in relation to forms.

If you know what types of fields you need and how many would be good.

ie.
text field
radio button
checkbox
text area
etc.

or you could sticky or email me (profile) and I will put a form together for you.

You can use the formmail avaliable at NMS site...Its more secure than matt's Formmail...and he himself says that :

here is the link :

[url=nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/]NMS Formmail[/url]

Cheers
