if you open this Joomla website you can easy understand what I have to do: http://lnx.erusma.org
As you can see at the bottom of the page there is a Custome HTML Joomla module named Get in touch
This custom HTML module contains this simple HTML code that show an e-mail form:
<form> <input id="name" title="name" type="text" placeholder="Your name" size="23" style="width:94%" /> <input id="email" title="email" type="text" placeholder="Your email" size="23" style="width:94%" /> <br /> <input id="subject" title="subject" type="text" placeholder="Subject" size="51" style="width:94%" /><br /> <textarea id="message" cols="33" style="width:94%" placeholder="Message"></textarea> <a style="display:inline-block;background:#fff;border: 1px solid #E7E7E7;border-bottom: 2px solid #93B62A;padding:8px 12px;" href="#" style="float: left;">Submit</a></form>I have inserted this HTML code by the JCE Joomla Text Editor.
Now I want to do the following thing: I have to attach to this form a php script that sends an email to a certain address (sending the name of the sender, the e-mail of the senter, the subject o the message and the text of the message)
Can I put this executable PHP script into the JCE Joomla Text Editor? It seems to me that have some problem to do it but I don’t know if am I missing something.
Tnx

You can use an module to do your job and not a html form via JCE Joomla Text Editor.
But if you want keep like that then you must replce <form> with below code
<form action='index.php?option=com_GetInTouch' method="get">and after that you must develop your own custom joomla component named GetInTouch .
