Need help with php script - mailing list

[RacerTim]

I am working on a project for my schools Students Against Drunk Driving chapter and need to have a way to gather names and email addresses on the webpage and have them saved into a database. I would also like them to be directed to a page that has a ticket with their name on it for them to print out.

I have made many pages in the past, I even run a forum on one of my sites. I have basic knowledge and am familiar with php (using pre made stuff, not actually writing it) and databases (SQL), however I've attempted to download some scripts and cannot get them to work. None of them have had very good instructions so I think i am forgetting something with all of these scripts. I have found a couple scripts on hotscripts and several just searching around on google. If someone can help with something very simple, that would be great! And know that its helping a good cause!!!

I would advise that you use one of the scripts that you download on Hotscripts. Post back here with any errors and we should be able to help.

For mailing lists, my favorite is still Dada Mail, aka Mojo mail. It is a CGI script but is more feature rich than any other that I have seen. Basically you edit one file, set the proper permissions on directories and files and it is good to go.
