Hello,
I am new to programming and apologize to those who are way
advanced in this field. I hope to one day to be just the slightest
bit smarter in this every fast paced and advanced world.

The problem seems simple but i feel stupid! I set up a form
in the website yet when form is submitted the email/ or pop email
then extracts info and puts it into code like this....


[recipient=website.com&subject=Contact+Us+Form&redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.website.com%
3E%0D%0A%0D%0A++++++++++++++%3C%2Ffont%3E+%3Cb%3E%3Cfont+size%3D&Name=test&Address
=test&City=t&State=&Zip=&Phone=&Email=&Area+of+Interest=select&Best+time+to+reach=&
Questions%2FComments=&Submit=Submit]

All i want is the info extracted sent in an email. Also so client does not see this
if they have a pop email. I cant seem to figure out what the issue is and tired of
beating my head in for the past two days and three hours...

CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE?

here is the code.....Note-I changed actual website to plain website for conf reasons..

Any help is much appreciated

mailto is only a hyperlink that opens up your default email application.

you probably should look into mail() function in PHP.

You should use PHP mail() function.
