forms.js.txtform.txtMailHandler.php.txt
I am a photographer with a strong design and coding background trying to make myself a new website.I'm trying to tweak a template to suit my needs, and I am having considerable trouble with the Contact Form page. I am very familiar with html and css, but js is not my strong suit and I have never worked with php before. If anyone could help me by letting me know where/what I need to edit for the submit button to make the form information go to my email I would greatly appreciate it. I have tried editing what I thought was right, and it still doesn't work. I have given up on my edited files and reverted back to the original template files because I'm sure the files I have been editing are beyond repair at this point. I really need to get this site up and running ASAP, but I am at my wits end with this form. Everything else on the form seems to work fine. These are my thoughts:
[*] [*]The action element of the form tag is set to "#". That's not right, but I'm not sure what to put there. And there is no method element.[*] [*]The owner-email on the .js page is also set to #, so I'm sure I need to put in the email address there. I'm just not sure about the syntax.[*] [*]There is also a spot in the .php file that I feel needs to have my email address also, but again, I'm unsure of the syntax. [*] [*]Also the a tag href element on the submit button is also set to "#" and I'm not sure where to point it, because it appears that the form should give the user a .js message confirming that the form has been sent...[*]
This is the form code in the html file:
<h2>Contact form</h2><form action="#" id="ContactForm"><div class="success"> Contact form submitted!<br><strong>We will be in touch soon.</strong> </div><fieldset><div class="wrapper"><span class="col1">Name:</span><label class="name"> <span class="bg"><input type="text" class="input"></span><span class="error">*This is not a valid name.</span> <span class="empty">*This field is required.</span> </label></div><div class="wrapper"><span class="col1">Email:</span><label class="email"><span class="bg"><input type="text" class="input"></span><span class="error">*This is not a valid email address.</span> <span class="empty">*This field is required.</span> </label></div><div class="wrapper"><span class="col1">Message:</span><label class="message"><span class="bg"><textarea rows="1" cols="1"></textarea></span><span class="error">*The message is too short.</span> <span class="empty">*This field is required.</span> </label> </div><div class="btns"><a href="#" class="button1" data-type="submit">Send</a><a href="#" class="button1" data-type="reset">Clear</a></div></fieldset></form>
This is the forms.js file:
//forms;(function($){$.fn.forms=function(o){return this.each(function(){var th=$(this),_=th.data('forms')||{errorCl:'error',emptyCl:'empty',invalidCl:'invalid',notRequiredCl:'notRequired',successCl:'success',successShow:'4000',mailHandlerURL:'bin/MailHandler.php',ownerEmail:'support@guardlex.com',stripHTML:true,smtpMailServer:'localhost',targets:'input,textarea',controls:'a[data-type=reset],a[data-type=submit]',validate:true,rx:{".name":{rx:/^[a-zA-Z'][a-zA-Z-' ]+[a-zA-Z']?$/,target:'input'},".state":{rx:/^[a-zA-Z'][a-zA-Z-' ]+[a-zA-Z']?$/,target:'input'},".email":{rx:/^(("[w-s]+")|([w-]+(?:.[w-]+)*)|("[w-s]+")([w-]+(?:.[w-]+)*))(@((?:[w-]+.)*w[w-]{0,66}).([a-z]{2,6}(?:.[a-z]{2})?)$)|(@[?((25[0-5].|2[0-4][0-9].|1[0-9]{2}.|[0-9]{1,2}.))((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|[0-9]{1,2}).){2}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|[0-9]{1,2})]?$)/i,target:'input'},".phone":{rx:/^+?(d[d-+() ]{5,}d$)/,target:'input'},".fax":{rx:/^+?(d[d-+() ]{5,}d$)/,target:'input'},".message":{rx:/.{20}/,target:'textarea'}},preFu:function(){_.labels.each(function(){var label=$(this),inp=$(_.targets,this),defVal=inp.val(),trueVal=(function(){var tmp=inp.is('input')?(tmp=label.html().match(/value=['"](.+?)['"].+/),!!tmp&&!!tmp[1]&&tmp[1]):inp.html()return defVal==''?defVal:tmp})()trueVal!=defVal&&inp.val(defVal=trueVal||defVal)label.data({defVal:defVal}) inp.bind('focus',function(){inp.val()==defVal&&(inp.val(''),_.hideEmptyFu(label),label.removeClass(_.invalidCl))}).bind('blur',function(){_.validateFu(label)if(_.isEmpty(label))inp.val(defVal),_.hideErrorFu(label.removeClass(_.invalidCl)) }).bind('keyup',function(){label.hasClass(_.invalidCl)&&_.validateFu(label)})label.find('.'+_.errorCl+',.'+_.emptyCl).css({display:'block'}).hide()})_.success=$('.'+_.successCl,_.form).hide()},isRequired:function(el){ return !el.hasClass(_.notRequiredCl)},isValid:function(el){ var ret=true$.each(_.rx,function(k,d){if(el.is(k))ret=d.rx.test(el.find(d.target).val()) })return ret },isEmpty:function(el){var tmpreturn (tmp=el.find(_.targets).val())==''||tmp==el.data('defVal')},validateFu:function(el){ el.each(function(){var th=$(this),req=_.isRequired(th),empty=_.isEmpty(th),valid=_.isValid(th) if(empty&&req)_.showEmptyFu(th.addClass(_.invalidCl))else_.hideEmptyFu(th.removeClass(_.invalidCl)) if(!empty)if(valid)_.hideErrorFu(th.removeClass(_.invalidCl))else_.showErrorFu(th.addClass(_.invalidCl)) })},getValFromLabel:function(label){var val=$('input,textarea',label).val(),defVal=label.data('defVal') return label.length?val==defVal?'nope':val:'nope'},submitFu:function(){_.validateFu(_.labels) if(!_.form.has('.'+_.invalidCl).length)$.ajax({type: "POST",url:_.mailHandlerURL,data:{name:_.getValFromLabel($('.name',_.form)),email:_.getValFromLabel($('.email',_.form)),phone:_.getValFromLabel($('.phone',_.form)),fax:_.getValFromLabel($('.fax',_.form)),state:_.getValFromLabel($('.state',_.form)),message:_.getValFromLabel($('.message',_.form)),owner_email:_.ownerEmail,stripHTML:_.stripHTML},success: function(){_.showFu()}}) },showFu:function(){_.success.slideDown(function(){setTimeout(function(){_.success.slideUp()_.form.trigger('reset')},_.successShow)})},controlsFu:function(){$(_.controls,_.form).each(function(){var th=$(this)th.bind('click',function(){_.form.trigger(th.data('type'))return false})})},showErrorFu:function(label){label.find('.'+_.errorCl).slideDown()},hideErrorFu:function(label){label.find('.'+_.errorCl).slideUp()},showEmptyFu:function(label){label.find('.'+_.emptyCl).slideDown()_.hideErrorFu(label)},hideEmptyFu:function(label){label.find('.'+_.emptyCl).slideUp()},init:function(){_.form=_.me _.labels=$('label',_.form) _.preFu() _.controlsFu() _.form.bind('submit',function(){if(_.validate)_.submitFu()else_.form[0].submit()return false}).bind('reset',function(){_.labels.removeClass(_.invalidCl) _.labels.each(function(){var th=$(this)_.hideErrorFu(th)_.hideEmptyFu(th)})})_.form.trigger('reset')}}_.me||_.init(_.me=th.data({forms:_}))typeof o=='object'&&$.extend(_,o)})}})(jQuery)$(window).load(function() { $('#ContactForm').forms({ownerEmail:'#'})})
And this is the mailhandler.php file:
<?php$owner_email = $_POST["owner_email"];$headers = 'From:' . $_POST["email"];$subject = 'A message from your site visitor ' . $_POST["name"];$messageBody = ""; if($_POST['name']!='nope'){$messageBody .= '<p>Visitor: ' . $_POST["name"] .

"n";}else{$headers = '';}if($_POST['state']!='nope'){ $messageBody .= '<p>State: ' . $_POST['state'] . '</p>' . "n";$messageBody .= '<br>' . "n";}if($_POST['phone']!='nope'){ $messageBody .= '<p>Phone Number: ' . $_POST['phone'] . '</p>' . "n";$messageBody .= '<br>' . "n";} if($_POST['fax']!='nope'){ $messageBody .= '<p>Fax Number: ' . $_POST['fax'] . '</p>' . "n";$messageBody .= '<br>' . "n";}if($_POST['message']!='nope'){$messageBody .= '<p>Message: ' . $_POST['message'] . '</p>' . "n";} if($_POST["stripHTML"] == 'true'){$messageBody = strip_tags($messageBody);} try{if(!mail($owner_email, $subject, $messageBody, $headers)){throw new Exception('mail failed');}else{echo 'mail sent';}}catch(Exception $e){echo $e->getMessage() ."n";}?>
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
