Hey!

well, im very new to PHP and i know really nothing about it. I've recently started up my own website using html and now i've come to a point where im stuck! so far im not planning on remaking my site with PHP, instead i'd like to create a fill in form.

I'm almost done with one whole part of my website (my site is divided into three parts) but im having problems with my fill in form.

So i typed out the whole form (Tinka's Trinkets - (www.leopoldine.com/TinkasTinkets)), but then one of my teachers at school told me i needed to use PHP in order for it to work. BUT my teacher doesnt have enough time to help me, and im a total newbie at PHP and i don't get it. I've tried many different PHP forms (the ones that are pre-made) that you have to edit but none of them have worked...

can someone please give me an overview about how PHP works and what it is (in terms of email fill in forms)? so far the only thing i know is that there's alot to put in the code that doesnt necessarily come out when you "view source".

[i would like this form (that is to be filled in by any random person) to be sent to my email so that i know what orders people have placed]

please help me!
