Send form to email in url

[phillipmcgough@charter.net]

I need to know how I can have a form sent to an email that is in a URL.

For example:
If I have a site with a form that has
First Name:
Last Name:
Email:
Phone:

in it, and a person goes to www.test.com/?email@emailaddress.com (or
something like that)then I need the form results to go to that email
address in the URL.

If a different person has a person go to the same URL but uses a
different email address, then the results of the form need to go to
that email address.

I also want it to send it without opening up a seperate email program
(outlook, etc.)

Hope this make sense.

Thanks!

<?php
mail($_REQUEST['email'], 'my subject', 'the message');
?>

Make sure you have strict length controls on the fields that get
included in the email message, and run strip_tags() on them, or else you
will find your form being abused for spam on quite short order.
