View Full Version : Need a contact form
Hello,
I need a contact form on my website, that will send to my email address what the visitor enter in the form fields. The problem is that I can't run any php scripts.. is there a way to use some html form?
:thumbsup:

There are a few websites that let you process your forms on their server - have a gander on Google.

Yeah there is this CGI-based contact form but those are often used as spam-entry, as in they get hacked and used for spam purposals. U can google ofcourse, i think defenitly alot of free html contact forms without the use of php/cgi.
Thank you for your suggestions! I found a site that offers remotely hosted contact forms, www.emailmeform.com . Basically, I paste the html code in my website, and it calls the php script on their server who sends the email.:thumbsup:

Hmm, looks a little suspicious to me. I checked the site and don't see any reference to them not storing the email addresses. Could just be one big email harvester application. I'd check that out futher before committing to it.

I wouldn't trust them for two reasons.
1) from their FAQ:
. Do you store a copy of form submittals in a database?
A. Yes. This is very useful for cases like your are experiencing problems with your normal email account.
and 2) The privacy policy states that it will keep YOUR information secret but doesn't say anything about the users that actually use your email form.
So you can't use php scripts, but can you use something like a perl script (I'm thinking of formmail.pl (http://www.javascript-coder.com/html-form/html-form-email.phtml))
