Huge PHP email form needed

I need to create a form nearly identical to this [link removed], but more secure and with PHP. I’m using an online contact form generator, but it’s very basic (and doesn’t include dropbox boxes). I’ve been working very slowly, using the basic fields available and adding more manually within Dreamweaver MX. I lack PHP knowledge, so I’m copying and pasting, making sure the fields I add match up everywhere across the files.

If you can help me out, I’d really appreciate it! This might be a driving factor to get me to learn some HTML, CSS, and PHP.

Update: Thanks to Eric for basically doing the chore for me. You rock, man!

Remote image hosting not working

O.F. Jay’s having problems with .htaccess. Can anyone help him out? I don’t know jack about that stuff. :(

Default font sets

Speaking of being nice to web developers, I came across these two pages:

They show how the fonts look, so you don’t have to try and find them yourself. Alternatively, you can type their name into Identifont to display them. It’s probably in your best interest to choose fonts that are on at least both of these pages when modifying your website, so all your visitors can view your website just like you intended.

Be nice to your web developers

If you’re not running a website yourself, and you have someone else on staff doing it, please proofread a thousand times before you send them some text you want published on a new page. Sure, it’ll take a few more days to get it out there. But, do you really want to send your web developer twenty emails asking to change a little here, a little there? (more…)
