Ok let me try to explain what im trying to do. I want a person to go to a page, type in their name. When they do that it matches their name with their name thats already in a verification table in the database and then it goes to the next page. On the next page it says: Is this name correct? and says their name. When they click yes I want to insert a record to a different table in the database and send an email to them.

I can get the inserting record to work and I've tried different mail extensions but I cant get them to work right.

Anyone have any ideas as to how to approach this?

If none of the extensions help with what you wish to achieve, then like the rest of us you will have to resort to hand-coding.

Explore the PHP Manual carefully, and study up on the PHP mail() function.
