So to access the data from the form you have, you would use:

$_POST['emailTo']
$_POST['name']
$_POST['address']
$_POST['city']
$_POST['state']
$_POST['age']
$_POST['comment']

So here is an example of how you could use these references to construct and email:

<?php

if ($_POST['emailSubmit']){
     $body = "The following information was just submitted by a user: \n\n Full Name: " . $_POST['name'] . "\n Address: " . $_POST['address'] . "\n City: " . $_POST['city'] . "\n State: " . $_POST['state'] . "\n Age: " . $_POST['age'] . "\n Comment: " . $_POST['comment'];
     mail($_POST['emailTo'], "Replace this with what you want the subject to be", $body);
}

?>

Then just replace the part about the subject with what you want the subject of your email to be and you should be set.

Would this go in the body of my page? like any specific order? can i test my sserver if i run php? which im sure i do but id like to just check. youve saved my day and your helping me learn thanks ;0) i greatly appreciate it
