I am not sure what you mean. If you want the user to be able to type the email subject, as in a normal email, create a field in your form, named "subject". Then, change the php script to be:

<?PHP
$mailto = "exampleemail@example.com";
$email = $_POST['email'];
if ($email == "") {
$email = $mailto;
}
$mailsubj = $_POST['subject'];
$mailhead = "From: $email\n";
reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if ($key!="submit")
{
$mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
}
}
mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);
?>

hi

the form i designed is so that our teams can post their results on the club website and instead of the e-mail subject being the same every time i would like to have it so the subject is the fiel 'your team'.

i have changed the line of code to $mailsubj = $_POST['yourteam'];

thank-you muchly
