I am looking to make a form that basically sends a conformation email with a persons selected options back to them. For example if the site was designed for buying marbles. The user could choose form yellow, red, blue, green and orange marbles. Say the user picks yellow, red, and blue. Then the user gets an email saying "Thanks for purchasing..." Here is your confirmation: yellow marbles red marbles blue marbles

So basically that is what I am trying to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Look into using PHP's mail function.

  • According to the top answer [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5335273/how-to-send-an-email-using-php), the mail function will not work on your local server. To get it to work locally, you need to [set up an SMTP server](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4652566/php-mail-setup-in-xampp). – Isak Jan 22 '15 at 14:52
