Any HTML help needed!!!

[lethologica]

My mums trying to make a webpage based form for work which will be used to order clothes for an event.

The form exists and works (fairly) well, sending whatever the user enters into the form to a specified email address.

However it doesn't include the senders email address which can make tracking down and contacting the 'customers' rather difficult.

Anyone know the html coding for including the senders email in the contents of the email as the "from address" does not come up with it!?

just put in a fild where the sender must insert his/her address and put a reminder to say that failer to complete this feild could make the order nun envoid i mean u 8ur mum9 can't be expected to do all the hassle

What you're suggesting is a security risk. If a computer could get your email address automatically and send it to whoever, maybe it could do the same with your credit card details? As Thunderchild said, you need to ask the user to volunteer the information.

I didn't view it as a security risk as it is perfectly normal for a web form to be filled in and upon the user clicking submit, the data is entered into the default email program and sent from there.

When sending an email, your email address is normally attached anyway, but for some reason won't show on this occassion..
