Simple Form With mailto Function

Hi All
I have a simple form that should enable visitors to my website to send me
feedback. I would also like to have visitors redirected to certain pages of
my site depending on the success of the following - I am using something
like:
if (email_valid($from_email))
{
mail($to_my_email, $subject, $message);
// need soemthing to redirect to home page
}
else{
echo "email address invalid";
//how to redirect back to the form ??
}
Is it also possible to enable users to attach a file and include it in their
e-mail?
Any help greatly appreciated,
George

It is usual for the user to want to know the mail was sent, so
automatically forwarding them back to index.php might not be the best
course of action, the header function will forward people to another
page if you wish (see option 1)

if(isset($_POST["submit")) {
#If the form is submitted, process it:
if(valid($from_email))
{
#Option 1: Automatically send them elsewhere:
header("Location: http://www.somewhere.com");

#Option 2: Tell them it was successful, let them click
#to go to next page (and/or use a javascript timer to # forward
them on):
include 'woohoo_email_sent.php';
}
else {
#Form failed input:
include 'error_email.php';
# (error_email will automatically show the form and fill
# it with the results it recieved from $_POST/$_GET so
# the user doesn't need to enter everything again
}
}
else {
#Show the original form, for inital input
include 'form_email.php';
}

Hope that helps,
