Oh, you are asking about a single check box. Like, a check box asking, "Do you want us to send you junkmail?" <form action="script.php" method="post"> <input type="checkbox" name="Junk" value="yes" />Junkmail? <input type="submit" /> </form> if ($Junk == "yes") { mail("you@spam4you.net","the junk you requested"); # :) } Enjoy, --Dan -- PHP scripts that make your job easier http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/ SQL Solution | Layout Solution | Form Solution T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y 4015 7 Ave, Brooklyn NY 11232 v: 718-854-0335 f: 718-854-0409
