Setting Up FormMail
What is FormMail? Formmail is a free service provided by Adam Internet to customers with a website on our web server. The following PHP script is a generic form to e-mail link, which will take the information in the form and send it to the specified email address. This script has many formatting and operational options, most of which can be specified through the form, meaning you don't need any programming knowledge or multiple scripts for multiple forms. This also makes FormMail the perfect system-wide solution for allowing users form-based user feedback capabilities. How to use it? Once you have created your web form, the following script must be pasted into the HTML coding: <form method="post" action="formmail.php"> Then copy the script below and paste it into a NotePad document and save it as formmail.php and upload this to the server using FTP, along with the rest of your website. You can then customise the script to send the details to your specified email address by changing the address where indicated below. (Click Here to View Script) You may also want to create a 'thank you' or 'confirmation' page that will open to let the user know that the form has been successfully submitted. The name of this file must correspond with the name next to the location as indicated above. Alternatively, you may want the user to return to the index.html page once completing and submitting the form.
Inserting a Counter into your Website
A counter can indicate how many people are visiting your site by calculating the number of 'hits'. The following code must be pasted into the HTML coding of the document where you want the counter to be placed. (Click Here to View Script) You must select and insert a 'counter name'. This must be specific to your domain name. To activate the counter you must email hostmaster@adam.com.au with the "countername". Please Note: If you have a shared domain with adam (or a personal web space) and your web address is something like www.adam.com.au/mypage then your counter name would be mypage and you do not need to contact the office as it will be activated straight away. If you would like to get a more detailed report on your site statistics please call our office and ask about a 24 hour access, online site statistic report.
