How to make a template of a ‘Request Form’

Hello Deshawn,

To be able to create the request form template, you will need to have basic knowledge in programming using HTML and PHP. I will share with you a little something on how you can go about creating the request form using PHP and HTML.

You will need to create two files, one an html file called contact_form.html and another a PHP file called contact.php. The request file is processed using the second file that is the PHP format.

For the html file, you can try out the code below using an application like Dreamweaver or any other html editor:

<form action="contact.php" method="post">

        Your name

    <input type="text" name="cf_name">

        Your e-mail

    <input type="text" name="cf_email">

        Message

    <textarea name="cf_message">

        <input type="submit" value="Send">

        <input type="reset" value="Clear">

</form>

The two important attributes that should be contained in the<form> tag are the:

action=”contact.php”– which specifies where the data is to be send,

and the

method=”post”– which specifies how the data is to be send from the form to the specified file.
