I'm sorry but I'm totally new on Web Development, I'd like to make a registration form for everyone that downloads a file I have on a Website. The ideal thing would be to send a confirmation email where the link to file is attatched.
So basically when a person wants to download a file I want him to supply me with his email and name and to make sure the email is valid I want to email him the link to the file.
What tools do I need? Can I use MySQL? What else do I need. I don't want a detailed explanation but some links and some general information would be highly appreciated!
