Hi

I would like to make a form that i could put on the internal intranet, which would allow users to send feedback or changes to.

I was wondering if it would be possible to put it on the intranet and then have it emailed to a specific email address, without the sender having an email account. (like an email webform)

I am using the following script for the form, but need the send part of it.

I don't really understand your question.
There is nothing special about using an intranet-- it is just a small version of the internet.

You need a server that will run the php script and, yes, of course you can send emails.

Are you trying to find out how to determine who a user is, then send the email to them?

Without user accounts, the only information you have from the user is their IP address (even on a local network).

If that IP address never changes, you could manually setup a list/array/database of employee IP address to employee email address, then just email based on that. However, this may be difficult, especially if different users share computers, etc. I think this is a bad idea also, because it may confuse everyone. At least you should say "sending to account connected to this computer: [email]"


Because it is on an intranet, you MIGHT be able to do something more complex. If you have some sort of network setup where users login (through the operating system) and this is available on the server, then if you can find a way to make php communicate with the server's user data, you can connect it this way. But there is no way to do this in PHP by default.
