How To Store The Text Typed In A Form? - sort of newsletter subsciption form

gotcha41
i would like to add a form on my site, that let's you fill in your e-mail address in order to subscribe to a newsletter. Actually, i just need to see their addresses somewhere (in a textfile, database, forward to my e-mailaddress,..). How can this be done? I mean, which script do i have to use?

There is a database available.
Php is enabled.
I have no acces to cgi-bin, if that's needed.


I hope someone can help me with this.

The alternative would be that there is a link on my site so that they can mail it to me, but prefer a script smile.gif Any ideas? thanks in advance! cool.gif

Maybe the Coppermine Photo Gallery scripts are useful? The site is based on Coppermine's Photo Gallery system.

Try this:

FORM
CODE

<form name="newsletter" method="post" action="newsletter.php">
 <p>
   <input type="text" name="nl_email">
</p>
 <p>
   <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</p>
</form>


TABLE in sql
CODE

ID: int autoincrasing index
NL_EMAIL: string


newsletter.php file

CODE

<?php
if ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['nl_email']))
{
 $nl_email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['nl_email'];
 $dbh=mysql_connect (HOST, USER, PASSWORD) or die ('DB is OFF');
 mysql_select_db (TABLE NAME);
 $query = "INSERT INTO TABLE NAME (`NL_EMAIL`) VALUES ('".$nl_email."')";
 $result = mysql_query($query);
 print "Your email is add. Nice day";
}
else
{
 print "Don't see email adress.";
}
?>


Dont forget to change HOST, USER, PASSWORD, TABLE NAME to right values.

With this you get a list of emails putting by users on in form, if you need a script for sending this news letter just ask :]

ok, thanks a lot, this is what i was looking for, but one question:

can you be more specific on what to do with the database? (in phpmyadmin) i'm not that familiar with mysql. But i do can run a query on my database.

can you give me something like:
CODE
CREATE TABLE cpg_online (
 user_id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
 user_ip tinytext NOT NULL,
 last_action datetime default NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY  (user_id,user_ip(15))
) TYPE=MyISAM;


thanks a lot cool.gif

sql

CODE

SQL-query:
CREATE TABLE `nl_table` (
`ID` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`NL_EMAIL` TEXT NOT NULL ,
INDEX ( `ID` )
);


php
CODE

$sql = 'CREATE TABLE `nl_table` ('
       . ' `ID` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, '
       . ' `NL_EMAIL` TEXT NOT NULL,'
       . ' INDEX (`ID`)'
       . ' )';


But first you need create database in CPANEL, next create user to this database add to this user full acces, then you can create tables in this new database.

MySQL Database button in CPANEL.
