Default ASP or PHP FormMail Script

I currently have some ASP on my contact us page that displays a thank
you message on the same page as the contact us form when it has been
successfuly sent.
However, the contents of the form were being sent to a free service,
which has now added advertisments, so I am now going to use a FormMail
script.
I do know how to install & setUp a PHP script, but changing my contact
us page from .asp to .php would stop the ASP script from working.
Basically, would it be easier to get a PHP script to display the thank
you message, in which case, could someone please tell me of one, or
would it be easier to get an ASP formMail script, in which case could
someone please tell my of one.
Thanks very much, in advance,
Joe

You didn't explain why you want to switch from asp to php since what you
want to do can be done easily in asp.

You can get free asp scripts from aspin.com. hotscripts.com.

I just switched over to Jacks formmail.php and use the following directive to
display the thank you message:

<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://www.yourname.com/thanks.htm">


The php (free) is available at dtheatre.com scripts
