Dreamweaver Creating a Contact Form – Feedback Form - 1 of 2

A contact form is an important part of any website as it provides your visitors the opportunity to contact you with a question, or to even forward feedback.   The form itself gathers the information, be sure to watch the tutorials on how to create a PHP script for a contact page that is required to forward that information to your own personal Email address. Be sure to watch the following tutorials on PHP scripting, this houses your email address and is required for this contact form.

Upon clicking the send button the contact form will then render the PHP Script, it is the PHP Script that has the information on what to do with the information gathered by the contact page.  The PHP Script can also render a page that will notify the sender that their message has indeed been sent and can also let them know their queried will be answered within 24 hours.  The PHP Script will then notify the server on what page to return to, in most cases when a visitor has sent a message they are finished with the contact page so it is a good idea to direct the server to return to the main page of the website.
