Create PHP Email Contact Form
To send an email with PHP and the simplest way to do this is to send a text email when a visitor to your website fills out a form.
Create a file name contactform.php
Copy and Paste this in contactform php file
[code]<?php
if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$human = intval($_POST['human']);
$from = $email;
// WARNING: Be sure to change this. This is the address that the email will be sent to
$to = 'YOUR_SPECIFIED_EMAIL_ADDRESS';
$subject = "Message from ".$name." ";
$body = "From: $name\n E-Mail: $email\n Message:\n $message";
// Check if name has been entered
if (!$_POST['name']) {
$errName = 'Please enter your name';
}
// Check if email has been entered and is valid
if (!$_POST['email'] || !filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
$errEmail = 'Please enter a valid email address';
}
//Check if message has been entered
if (!$_POST['message']) {
$errMessage = 'Please enter your message';
}
//Check if simple anti-bot test is correct
if ($human !== 5) {
$errHuman = 'Your anti-spam is incorrect';
}
// If there are no errors, send the email
if (!$errName && !$errEmail && !$errMessage && !$errHuman) {
if (mail ($to, $subject, $body, $from)) {
$result='<div class="alert alert-success">Thank You! I will be in touch</div>';
} else {
$result='<div class="alert alert-danger">Sorry there was an error sending your message. Please try again later</div>';
}
}
}
?>[/code]
