    Does anyone know how to make a "tell a friend form" for a website?

    Some form fields would be Sender's & Receiver's names, Receiver's email address, and a custom message. This needs to be done in JS, not PHP.

    Also if there are some remotely hosted ones that use PHP that you are familiar with that's cool too. It's just that my client's hosting package doesn't have PHP support, and they want a "tell a friend" script - so I assume it would have to be in JS unless it's remotely hosted, right?

    PHP hosts don't cost much more. . .I'd really recommend they get it. 'Twill make life much easier to use stuff like WP, sNews, etc. etc.

    As that goes, the one DENiAL posted does work (I used it before I had PHP hosting :P)

    Am the only one that thinks Sam is making this more complicated than it should be?

    Sam, you clearly have PHP hosting yourself, as your running WordPress. So, why don't you host one for the client yourself? That way the client will come back to you if they need any changes. It will help to build up a secure relationship with your client and make him/her feel like you will do your best for anything that they request and the overall level of service that the client receives should increase.

    I see. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. So I should just host the PHP script on my own server, and link to it from my client's website then?

    No, use it as a backend from your client's website. Have the html code for the form on the client website, and have the action pointing to your website, then have the php script header() redirect back to the client website.
