Have you been learning how to create and design web pages? You can create lists, tables, images and forms and make them look good with CSS. Do you wonder "what can I do with these forms?" Without some server-side program to handle the form processing, you are left with the option of setting the action to "mailto:someaddress@somehost.com" .

This tutorial will show how to create a generic form processor that will use PHP's mail() function to send the data submitted in the form in a more nicely formated manner to an email address you specify. This will help keep your email address away from 'bots' and allow you some limited error checking.
