Default Web Form Question?

I want to create an email form that allows a user to send an image from their harddrive to an email address. Can this be done in HTML or would I need to use JavaScript instead?

Hi

I've not used this particular version but take a look at:

Jack's Scripts: Formmail.php

It's a variant of the ages old FormMail script, updated for PHP.

Good luck,

Trevor

Neither HTML nor JavaScript can send an email because they're both client-side languages, i.e., they're consumed by the user's browser, the client. Email processing takes place on the server and the server is also where the image will be uploaded, so the server is where the code to handle all of that must reside.

So yeah, you need a script like the one Trevor linked to, or something similar using another server-side language.
