I'm new in the PHP world and therefore run into a problem with validation of
forms. I need to validate a form for e-mail and some other stuff, before it
being sent to a mail address.
The validation need to be shown I the form, written with a red font. A
little like this:
E-mail: <red>information is missing or incorrect</red>
[ box ]
At the moment to form and the validation are in different pages looking like
this (if somebody would write it into one page, please do so):
-----
Form page (subscribe.html):
<html>
<head>
<title>Subscribe</title>
<link href="../css/style.css" rel="styleSheet" type="text/css">

<script>
function loadframe(FileName)
{
parent.menu.location.replace(FileName);
}
function loadtopframe()
{
parent.topframe.location.replace('topnavi.html');
}
</script>

I hope somebody out there have some time to help me, the code is for a
school assignment.
As I said I don't have much routine in PHP, so if you have the time I would
prefer a complete code, but anything would be of help
Best regards
JB
