Well this shouldnt be any problem. I suspect you dont know how to set up the email routine since your asking. All you need to do is insert a sendmail script together with the update of the mySQL database. You could use PHPs internal functions for this, but Ill recommend you using PHPmailer which is heavily documentet with tons of examples on how to use. The PHPmailer is located at sourceforge and you should find it right away. It has to be the most elegant way I know of sending emails from PHP scripts. And as a bonus, the PHPmailer is under active development so you will most likely never run into problems using it, :) -- Kim Steinhaug --------------------------------------------------------------- There are 10 types of people when it comes to binary numbers: those who understand them, and those who don't. --------------------------------------------------------------- "Redhat" <redhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:1069767834.2095.11.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > I have created a simple form that dumps input information into a mysql > database.
