At most every website needs a web form somewhere on its pages. It can be a contact form on the contact page, ( by the way it is always a good idea to use a contact form instead of an email address as this will decrease SPAM by stopping spam bots from harvesting your email address ) or a simple feedback form, an order form, survey.

Usually it is easy to create the html form using Dreamwaver or a similar web design software, but making it work requires a little knowledge of php or some other server side scripting language, necessary to process the submission of the form and do something with the submitted data.

One easy way to create web forms is to use one of the online services that specialize in offering web and HTML forms.

For example, Email Me form is a free web service you can use to create web forms within minutes without knowing html or php. An easy to use online wizard will let you create the form in a stepped approach, and at the end you will get a simple HTML source code that you need to copy and paste to your website and the web form will be there and working in no time, sending you an email each time the form is submitted.

The advantages of using an online web form creating service is that they usually offer many features that would be otherwise difficult to implement, such as Captcha images ( to stop spam bots from automatically submitting the form with junk data ), statistics, and many other.

An other way is either to hire a php programmer or to learn yourself a bit of php and get your form working yourself. Basically, each input element in the form has it's own name, and by using php you can get the content of the fields of the HTML form when submitted, validate it and then send them in an email using the php maill() function.
