[Javascript] Sending of Javascript via email

Thu Jan 23 04:21:37 CST 2003

Help...
I have a form in which Ive used the Javascript Date() function to display a numbering system on that forms page, seen here -> http://www.topweb.co.uk/help/form4.htm in the format (date/month/hour/minute/second) 23 01 10 20 18. but then I want to send the above values along with the other entered form fields when submit is pressed. but I can't seem to transfer the values of 'formNumber'. I thought maybe I could use a hidden field, but unsure how to.
Below is the php script (important bits only)
Please explain in laymans terms... I'm a newbie...
Regards Jim
***PHP Script***form4mail.php3***
<html>
<head>
<title>form4mail</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
 $formcontent = "";
 $formcontent .= "Form Number: $formNumber\n"; //Should take 
 value of formNumber variable
 $toaddress = "jamesjackson73 at aol.com";
 $subjectline = "Form completed by *sender* ";
 $headers = "From: *senderemail*\n";
 mail( $toaddress, $subjectline, $formcontent, $headers);

 echo "
 <b>Thank you, The following email has been sent to 
 $toaddress:</b>
 <pre>$formcontent</pre>
 "; // end echo statement
?> // end php
</body>
