    Trouble with e-mail form

    in PHP

    Posted

    Thank you for the info on the drop down. I just want this form to e-mail me (which for some reason it isn't doing) Once I get that part working, I can customize it the way I want.

    Trouble with e-mail form

    in PHP

    Posted

    If possible, I would like to add a drop down menu as to the nature of the e-mail. Example is Business, rental, entertainment, ect. Not necessary, but nice. Below is the basic code I copied from this site and "modified" to add a couple extra fields to suit our needs.
    <html>
    <body>
    <?php
    function spamcheck($field) {
    // Sanitize e-mail address
    $field=filter_var($field, FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
    // Validate e-mail address
    if(filter_var($field, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
    return TRUE;
    } else {
    return FALSE;
    }
    }
    ?>
    <h2>T.E.V. Edelweiss Feedback Form</h2>
    <?php
    // display form if user has not clicked submit
    if (!isset($_POST["submit"])) {
    ?>
    <form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];?>
    Your E-mail: <input type="text" name="Your E-Mauk"><br>
    Your Name <input type="text" name="Your Name"><br>
    Your Phone Number: <input type="text" name="Your Phone Number"><br>
    Best way to reach you: <input type="text" name="Best way to reach you:"><br>
    Subject: <input type="text" name="subject"><br>
    Message: <textarea rows="10" cols="40" name="message"></textarea><br>
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Feedback">
    </form>
    <?php
    } else { // the user has submitted the form
    // Check if the "from" input field is filled out
    if (isset($_POST["from"])) {
    // Check if "from" email address is valid
    $mailcheck = spamcheck($_POST["from"]);
    if ($mailcheck==FALSE) {
    echo "Invalid input";
    } else {
    $from = $_POST["from"]; // sender
    $subject = $_POST["subject"];
    $message = $_POST["message"];
    // message lines should not exceed 70 characters (PHP rule), so wrap it
    $message = wordwrap($message, 70);
    // send mail
    mail("use_contact_form@tevedelweiss.org",$subject,$message,"From: $fromn");
    echo "Thank you for sending us feedback";
    }
    }
    }
    ?>
    </body>
    </html>

    Trouble with e-mail form

    in PHP

    Posted

    I am extremely new to programming. I got thrown into the position of running our club's web page (long story) I managed to recreate a web page that is a lot more user friendly than the old site thanks to the help from this site. However, there is one thing I can't get right. That is the form page.

     

    Our host is "hostgator.com" and they have a short bit of code on their page I tried to use, but was unsuccessful. I kept receiving an error saying "e-mail address cannot contain (,)<> ect. I have checked and double checked the code and e-mail, but I can't seems o make anything work.

     

    When I use the code provided in the "PHP Secure E-mail" section on this site, I can click submit, but get a 404 error. I don't seem to be able to find a way to redirect the e-mail back to the main site so I do not receive this error. I am creating the form in text, and uploading it to a test folder on the site so I can see how it works over the net.

     

    Is there someone here who may be able to help me get a form up and running?

     

    Thanks

    I am very new to PHP and have been thrown into a very uncomfortable position with a non profit organization I work with. They are in need of a web site upgrade in a very bad way. I have managed to create most of the site with help from your pages. However, I am having issues with an e-mail page. Most of our requests come in via e-mail so it's important to get it right.

     

    The bias form on your site is a little too basic for our needs, besides, when I added my own address to the code, I was unable to make it work. Can someone offer a little advice on how I can get this e-mail page up and running quickly?

     

    I also need a little advice on editing the back form that is an example. Adding my address did not work, and I would like to have the person get a "thank you for submitting" page after they fill out the form.

     

    Thanks
