The form is an html for, the formmail.php is uploaded to your ISP server
and only requires the values in the configuration section. Those values
are the email address(es) you want the forms sent to.
I can send you a sample form from my site, or you can go the site and
save the form to your computer and look it over. You must not change the
first part (it is in charge of sending the information) but the input
fields are easily changed or added. The formmail.php script will send
all filled in parts to the email addresses listed in the "recipients"
field in the first part of the field - provided they are also in the
formmail.php script also. http://www.tectite.com also has a sample form
to help you get started.
You can build a form as complex as you like with no php programming,
only html coding is required. Using php on your site would make it much
easier to maintain, and is really simple to learn the basics, which is
all you need.
Good luck with your project.
