Contact forms and "tell others" forms

[dominicanpapi82]

1. Is it possible to make an automated "tell your friends about our site" form? I know some of the big sites have them, but I want to know, is it possible for little old low-budget me?

2. Is it possible to create a contact form without the info having to go through some intermediate site?

1. I would have thought a normal contact form could be set to do it - with the input being set up to change the mailing address.

2. Yes - but to be reasonably proof against spambots, you need to go server side on your own site. If your host supports php, I'd recommend something like the thesitewizard's free form (http://www.thesitewizard.com/wizards/feedbackform.shtml).
