PHP Form job: $40 Paypal upon completion

PROGRAMMER FOUND! MUGS THANKS SO MUCH....HE'S DOING IT FOR FREE. BLESS YOUR HEART MAN!!!


After the success of my Logo Contest, I've decided to further employ ATOT's expertise.

Please review my Website for detailed background information.


THE INFO
I need to create a form that will capture certain information about a registration, send that information to two emails, and forward the individual to a PayPal payment page. (Buy It Now button form code included below.) I would also require that you can guide me through the website integration and testing. The form should go on this page.


THE DETAILS
I need to collect the following informartion:

1. {Required, Text Field} Name
2. {Required, Select: Female, Male} Gender
3. {Required, Text Field} Billing Address (To cross-reference your payment.)
4. {Required, Text Field] Phone number
5. {Required, Select: Yes, No} Are you on a team? (Yes/No)
6. {Required if 5=Yes, Text Field} Team Name
7. {Not Required, Text Field} Team Captain
8. {Required, Text Field} Your E-mail address
9. {Not Required, Text Box} Questions/Comments

I would like copies of the form to be sent to (1) dodgeballmiami_register@gordiflan.com, (2) the registrant, and (3) a database.

The "submit" button should do two things:
(1) Send the completed form to the above three locations.
(2) Redirect the registrant to a PayPal Buy It Now. (I have the account already setup for the button.)

PayPal Buy It Now Button Code:
These forums won't let me enter the code here, I will email it to whoever needs it.

Server PHP Version 4.4.1

I do not require any encryption at this time.


THE LOOT
$40 PayPal upon comletion of a working version of the form emailed to My Email AND guide me through the integration.

Contact me through PM if you can help, and I'll edit this post when I've selected a programmer so that nobody wastes their time.

Happy Coding! Thanks again! 😀

I might give this a go when I get home.

You might want to mention what kind of database you're using, and other related info (PHP version, if you want any for of encryption, etc)

PHP version 4.4.1. OP edited to reflect this info. Thanks!

I don't think I'll need encryption. I'm new to this, so can you offer reasons as to why I would need it? The payment is being done through PayPal servers, which are encrypted. I don't see any reason why to encrypt someone's name and address, unless it's easy to integrate and doesn't prevent any functionality.

Easy project, but why should anyone write a single line of code with no guarantee of making a dime?

Well, it's no different from any other contest. You enter it with the hopes of winning. Nothing guarantees that you will be #1.

I'll make certain to update the OP so nobody wastes their time writing code after someone has already completed the task.

Yes, but this is a contest of speed. Anyone but the first person to submit is wasting their time. In a logo contest, anyone can win if they have the best logo.

Anyway, it's an easy project and I'm sure someone will bite, but I'm not going to bother with no guarantee. 🙂

It's not a freaking contest, it's a job. Is that the way you think business works, a McDonalds brings in 10 kids and the first one to get the bathroom clean gets paid while everyone else just gets sent home with a pat on the head? All you're doing it guaranteeing yourself a workforce of the most desperate coders on earth while assuring that they're simultaneously stupid enough to do it in the first place.
 
I'm going to have to agree with the others that it's a simple job not a contest. Any decent coder should be able to complete it easily, it's not like there are different ways of doing it so the best man wins.

Hey man, no need to get your boobies in a twist. If you don't like the terms, then don't bother. Pretty simple.

Yep, it's a job (a simple one at that), not a contest. Why not just ask if someone wants to do it to contact you through PM, then take it from there?
 
You should probably just pick someone to do it because I'd be pissed if I spent a few hours doing this and you picked someone else...
 
How many hrs would it take for a proficient PHP programmer? 2hrs? 1hr?

I've never looked at the API to interface with paypal, but if it's easy i'd say about 1-1.5 hours.
 
I'd write this up for you in no time...

But, my time is worth a lot more than $40.00 just for you to tell me that someone else already submitted it...

Doing a project like this, you are going to get very fast written code that has the chance of flaws just because someone wanted the $40.00 you are offering.

Good luck!
 
Not difficult, probably take an hour or so including creating the DB structure. Is this MySQL? Do you already have it installed/have a structure, or do you need that set up as well. It's really only a few lines of code heh, if you plan on doing more with your web site you might just google PHP MySQL code there are enough examples that should get you started.

/edit for example, I taught myself how to do something similar to this about 2 months ago, it was just a simple web form that would allow an authorized individual (htaccess) to add ip's to my iptables ftp table that would let them access my ftp which is ip restricted (at the firewall) It took me probably 4-6 hours from the time I came up with the idea until I implemented a solution. Pretty much all of the information that you need is available for free on the net 😀
