What do I need to use to create a mechanism that automatically sends a confirmation letter to a client after they press submit on a form? There will be three different kinds of confirmation depending on the agent filling in the request for service.

Is this PHP? Not sure where to start.

Thanks for any help.

Ask your host which scripting language they support. You can do it in just about any of them.

If you are using php for your form processing already you can definitely add the functionality to it.

It would just consist of using if else or switch to decide which type of email to send and then using the mail function just like you would normally use to send an email.

Oh, cool ok...

It'll just take some homework- but I'll get it.

Thanks-
