[thelist] php add email to a mysql db

this is what I had originally thought, I must be missing something.  The rest of
the code checks a couple of form fields and then emails the results to both the
site admin and the form filler.  I did have a problem with a conflict there but
that is sorted now as it was a mail problem.

In this situation you could add the email to the database using another caller
of some kind, like
a pop-up window.

<form name="myForm" onsubmit="if(documnet.myForm.addToEmailList.checked)
window.open('addToEmailList.php?email='+document.myform.email.value">

I don't understand how adding the code to insert the email into database on the
next page in the
order will screw up the order code...you are simply adding an extra query to the
rest of the php
script.

Anyway, hth.
