This question already has an answer here:
HTML:
<form action="php/send-contact.php" class="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6 cols">
<input type="text" name="name" required="required" placeholder="Name*">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6 cols">
<input type="email" name="email" required="required" placeholder="Email*">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6 cols">
<input type="text" name="subject" required="required" placeholder="Subject*">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-12 cols">
<textarea name="message" required="required" cols="30" rows="5" placeholder="Message*"></textarea>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-12 cols">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Message" class="btn btn-send">
</div>
</div>
</form>
php/send-contact.php:
<?php
$name = @trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
$email = @trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
$subject = @trim(stripslashes($_POST['subject']));
$message = @trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));
$email_from = $email;
$email_to = 'hello@domain.co.uk';//replace with your email
$body = 'Name: ' . $name . "
" . 'Email: ' . $email . "
" . 'Subject: ' . $subject . "
" . 'Message: ' . $message;
$success = @mail($email_to, $body, 'Name: ' . $name . "
" . 'Email: ' . $email . "
" . 'Subject: ' . $subject . "
" . 'Message: ' . $message);
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<script>
alert("Thank you for getting in touch. We will contact you as soon as possible.");
</script>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=../index.html">
</head>
The HTML alert activates and refreshes as it should, but it doesnt send any email...
I have tried numerous email address recipients.
Also, are there any special measures I should take into account (regarding the PHP elements) when adding Google ReCaptcha to this form?
</div>
So I have tested this, and I think it is doing what you want.
$name = htmlentities($_POST['name']);
$email_from = htmlentities($_POST['email']);
$subject = htmlentities($_POST['subject']);
$message = htmlentities($_POST['message']);
$email_to = 'Admin@Domain.com';//replace with your email
$headers = "From: webmaster@example.com" . "
" . "CC: ". $email_from; //This adds a from field, as well as CC's the person submitting the request.
//Build the body of the eamil
$body = 'Name: ' . $name . "
" . 'Email: ' . $email_from . "
" . 'Subject: ' . $subject . "
" . 'message: ' . $message;
$success = mail($email_to, "Contact from site X, regarding: ".$subject, $body,$headers);
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<?php if($success){ //If the email was sent correctly?>
<script>
alert("Thank you for getting in touch. We will contact you as soon as possible.");
</script>
<?php header('Location: ../index.html'); }else{?>
<script>
alert("There was an error when sending the email, please try again later.");
</script>
<?php header('Location: ../index.html'); } //If the email falied?>
</head>
The other file (the html) remains the same. Simply replace your code in php/send-contact.php with this.
