Im a rookie when it comes to creating web pages, i need to create a page with a registration form that will send me the info by email (like a mailing list) but i also need the name of the sender to be posted on the page immediately after the info has been sent.

i hope ive described this so you can understand.

Hey Chris,

What you want to do is setup a simple php script. One that allows you to send mail and store the users name that was inputed into the txt box that has a defined ID name and call the post script variable on a new page. Go into google and type in e-mail php scripts. Youll be able to find plenty of them. Basically you are going to have the user be sent to the page after they input their values into the text boxes and then have the variable name be called to show them their name on the next page. You can even set a delay time to have them be reverted back to the previous page. But i suggest getting a script from google...as I am not allowed to promote other sites on here. But it would be good for you to mess around with these scripts and youll learn a little too.
