DynaForm provides a way to easily and quickly create HTML email forms without any required coding aside from a bit of HTML.

In fact, one "dynaform.php" file can handle ALL of your email forms without any kind of configuration - it automatically adapts to handle any form inputs you want to include. If you are ready to begin, please review the installation

Installation instructions outlined below.
readme file and detailed example are included in the package's zip file

1. Simply upload "dynaform.php" to your account

2. Now, you must build your HTML email form. We have provided one for you named "example.html".

This can be ANY HTML file with a form, but there are a few requirements.

a). The form "action" must be set to the relative or exact URL of "dynaform.php".

For example, if both "yourform.html" and "dynaform.php" are in the same folder:

<form action='dynaform.php' method='POST'>

b). In the email form, there are three hidden variables that MUST exist between the <form></form> tags.

<input type='hidden' name='rec_mailto' value='you@yoursite.com'>
<input type='hidden' name='rec_subject' value='New DynaForm Email'>
<input type='hidden' name='rec_thanks' value='thanks.html'>

"rec_mailto" tells DynaForm who to email the results of the form to."rec_subject" tells DynaForm what the email subject should be.

"rec_thanks" tells DynaForm the URL to the page to send the user after they have submitted their form.

All three of these hidden fields are REQUIRED. If you have forgotten one, DynaForm will give you a missing field error.


c). Enter any other fields you like. As long as they are given a "name" parameter, they will be included in the email. For example:

<input type='text' name='Name'>
<input type='text' name='Email'>
<textarea name='Comments'></textarea>


d). Create as many forms as you wish! Each one may have different fields as long as your three required fields mentioned in section B are present.

NOTE: It may be helpful to view "example.html" in the package's zip file. This is an example form that we have made to give you an idea of how your form might look.

Advanced Configuration (optional):

1. If you wish to hide the three required variables from your form HTML, please open "dynaform.php" with a plain text editor such as Notepad and refer to the area labeled "OVERRIDE REQUIRED VARIABLES?".

2. If you wish to ban certain IP addresses from usign your DynaForm, please open "dynaform.php" with a plain text editor such as Notepad and refer to the area labeled "BAN IP ADDRESSES".

3. If you are getting the error "Invalid Domain" and both your HTML form and "dynaform.php" are on the same domain name, please open "dynaform.php" with a plain text editor such as Notepad and refer to the area labeled "ACTIVATE DOMAIN SECURITY?".

4. If you would like DynaForm to automatically respond to every form submission, please open "dynaform.php" with a plain text editor such as Notepad and refer to the area labeled "ACTIVATE AUTO-RESPONSE?"
