Hey people,

I'm looking for some help on a php order form. I made a order form to put on my website, which people can use to order some things. But, before the order is sent to me, I need people to click a link in their e-mail which confirms their order. If anyone can help me on my way then please do so, I really need this. Thanks in advance.

Well, what you could do is have it so when they finalize their order, have it generate a random 10 digit number, have it store in a mysql database, then in the email, include the 10 digit number and a link to confirm their order, and on that page have 2 form fields, one for their email address, and the other for the 10 digit number. I'm sure you know how to do this as it is very simple, but if you do not I can help you with it. have fun.

Thanks for your reply, I think I'll try to figure something out based on your ideas. I'll post again here when I did =]

Another thing you could do is have them fill out their quesiton or the form, and insert their question into the database. Then when they click this link in the email it takes them to the page that gets the question id and sends the question of that ID.

Hope this helps,
