Thanks. I'll check with our IT Support if our server has it.

If it has it, does it automatically pick up the php document?

It definatly more complicated than i thought it was going to be
(creating a form!) I think i need to start from scratch as online
generators/free ones have links back to their site, and adds etc -
since its going on a business/company website, it wont look any good.

thanks again.
