On your post.php you will need to use the mail function.

I’ve used this snippet on a number of sites, seems to work ok.

Place this code inside post.php or on the same page above the first <html> tag and post the form to itself.
You might need to make a few tweaks to match your inputs, should give you a good start.

session_start();

$name = '';
$email = '';
$tel = '';
$comment = '';
$s_error_message = '';

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { //check for name of your submit button
  if (isset($_POST['name'])) {
    $name = trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
  }
  if (isset($_POST['email'])) {
    $email = trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
  }
  if (isset($_POST['tel'])) {
    $tel = trim(stripslashes($_POST['tel']));
  }
  if (isset($_POST['comment'])) {
    $comment = trim(stripslashes($_POST['comment']));
  }
  if (strlen($name) == 0) {
    $s_error_message .= "&raquo; Enter your name<br>";
  }
  if (strlen($email) == 0) {
    $s_error_message .= "&raquo; Enter your email<br>";
  } elseif (!eregi("^[[:alnum:]][a-z0-9_.-]*@[a-z0-9.-]+\\.[a-z]{2,4}$", $email)) {
    $s_error_message .= "&raquo; Not a valid email<br>";
  }

  if (strlen($s_error_message) == 0) {
    $to = "email@someaddress.com";
    $message = "Name: " . $name . "\
\
" . $comment . "\
\
Tel: " . $tel . "\
Email: " . $email;
    $subject = "Website Query";

    if (mail($to, $subject, $message, 'From: ' . $email)) {
      header('Location: http://www.yoursitename.com/thank-you.html');
    } else {
      print('There was a problem sending the mail. Please check that you filled in the form correctly.');
    }
  }
}

This will show any errors to the user, place in a div above the form.

<strong><?php if (strlen($s_error_message) > 0) {print($s_error_message);} ?></strong>

<form name="contact" method="post" action="post.php">
		<fieldset>
			<ol>  
				<li>  
					<label for="name">Name: <strong>required</strong></label>  
					<input id="name" name="name" class="text required" type="text" value="<?php print htmlspecialchars($name); ?>">  
				</li>  
				<li>  
					<label for="email">Email address: <strong>required</strong></label>  
					<input id="email" name="email" class="email required" type="text" value="<?php print htmlspecialchars($email); ?>">  
				</li>  
				<li>  
					<label for="tel">Telephone:</label>  
					<input id="tel" name="tel" class="text" type="text" value="<?php print htmlspecialchars($tel); ?>">
				</li>
				<li>  
					<label for="comment">Message:</label>  
					<textarea id="comment" name="comment" class="text"><?php print htmlspecialchars($comment); ?></textarea>
				</li>  
			</ol>  
		</fieldset>
		<fieldset class="submit">  
			<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit Message" class="submit">
		</fieldset>
		</form>

i tried this code but it doesn’t work because in php haven’t any function to send to my e-mail. :smiley:

5

This line sends the email:


 if (mail($to, $subject, $message, 'From: ' . $email)) {

Did you customise the code to your email and website details?

6

yes i customised for me but didn’t work.
And i use XAMPP.

If you are using XAMPP on a localhost you will need to set it up to send emails. I can not remember how at the moment.
