提交后，php表单不会发送或转到标题位置

I have a simple php form for contact purposes. However, it won't send the email or go to the correct page after submit. It redirects to the mail.php instead.

My contact form named contact.php is as follows:

 <form id="contact-form" action="mail.php" method="POST">
    <fieldset>

        <label><span class="text-form">Your Name:</span> <input type="text" name="name"></label>
        <label><span class="text-form">Your Email:</span><input type="text" name="email"></label>
        <label><span class="text-form">Your Contact No:</span><input type="text" name="contact"></label>
        <div class="wrapper">
            <div class="text-form">Your Message:</div>
            <textarea name="message" rows="6" cols="25"></textarea><br />
            <div class="clear">
        </div>
        <div class="buttons">
        <a class="button" href="#"><input class="button" type="submit" value="Send"></a>
        <a class="button" href="#"><input class="button" type="reset" value="Clear"></a>
        </div>

    </fieldset>
</form>

And the php code named mail.php is as follows:

    <?php
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $message = $_POST['message'];
    &contact = $_POST['contact'];
    $formcontent="From: $name 
 Message: $message";
    $recipient = "info@whatever.co.za";
    $subject = "Contact form message";
    $mailheader = "From: $email 
";
    mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!");
    header("Location:contact.php");
    ?>

What am i doing wrong. It just wont send the message to email or redirect to the correct page??

Your syntax is ever so slightly wrong. &contact on line 5 should be $contact. I assume you're on a production server, so error reporting would be disabled and you wouldn't get any warnings.

Please check the contact.php file whether some redirection is happening from contact.php to mail.php

I think there may be an issue sending mail from your server. The mail.php file is probably tripping up on the mail function and not doing the redirect.

Create a new file with just the php mail function in there (with your email address and a test message) and browse it from your web browser, does it send?

Try using @ before mail function

<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$contact = $_POST['contact'];
$formcontent="From: $name 
 Message: $message";
$recipient = "info@whatever.co.za";
$subject = "Contact form message";
$mailheader = "From: $email 
";
@mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!");
header("location: contact.php");
?>

this will let you pass even if mail function produce any issue. Also please check if there are any other header are not sent using http://php.net/manual/en/function.headers-sent.php function.

I would strongly suggest to use PHPMailer or some other class to send any kind of email.

Try to use ob_start() at the start of script, and exit(); after header("Location: contact.php");

smth like this ...

<?php
    ob_start();
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $message = $_POST['message'];
    &contact = $_POST['contact'];
    $formcontent="From: $name 
 Message: $message";
    $recipient = "info@whatever.co.za";
    $subject = "Contact form message";
    $mailheader = "From: $email 
";
    mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!");
    header("Location: contact.php");
    exit();
?>

Change the mail.php to the following:

<?php
mail("info@whatever.co.za", "Contact form message", $_POST['message'], "From: ".$_POST['name']." <".$_POST['email'].">");
header("Location: contact.php");
?>
