Need a form script

Does anyone know of a script out there that will allow for:

1 I have a web form that I want our company users to fill out.
2 When the user submits the form they are sent a confirmation email
3 but...the twist is I want it to be an email that they have to reply to or click a confirm link before the form data is actually sent.

I have a script that is suppose to do that...but I have run into several errors and the script writer will not respond to any emails.

If you do not know of any...could anyone take a look at this script?

Thanks,
Chris

there is no way to make the form submission dependent on an email reply. what you can do however, is store the form data in a temp database (be it an actual database, or a plain text file) and not add it to your final database until they respond (preferably in going to a specific URL).

That is what I want to do. The script I was trying to get to work...created a text file for each submission. When the sender clicks a confirmation link in an email message it sends the saved text message to the designated user.

Do you know of a script that does that...I don't know enough about php to correct the problem that the error message refers to.

I get a couple of messages about "Notice: Use of undefined constant"
and one message about a "Notice: Undefined variable"...it gives me line numbers to look at...I just can't figure it out.
