frontend form posting to database then table contents being posted via email

Hi,

I want to create a front-end form for users to be able to post from the front-end a form that gets put in the database and then every 24 hours this data from the database is posted to an email address.

If anyone has any ideas on where to start please let me know.

Thanks,

Sarah

The first part is easy enough; there’s plenty of discussions in the forums about inserting data from a form using an eForm event function.

The second part will require a cron job. That will depend on whether or not your hosting allows them. Some hosting control panels have a cron "wizard" allowing you to specify a script to run and at what intervals.

For the first part look at eForm2db, might help

thanks for all your help

i’m having a bit of trouble with the snippet suggested but i’ve posted to the forum about it. might see if i can find some other ways to do it if this doesn’t work out.

thanks!
