获得一个PHP联系表格

Question

I'm fairly new to PHP, and trying to get a contact form to work on my website has proven a little difficult. I've put a contact form onto my site; Everything functions properly other then sending the mail. It's connected to my server on Godaddy, so not sure why it doesn't work. Here is my code(changed a few of the names to remain anonymous.)

HTML:

<form id="contact.php" action="mywebsite" method="post">
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="c_name" value="Name" onfocus="if(this.value=='Name')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Name';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="c_email" value="E-mail" onfocus="if(this.value=='E-mail')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='E-mail';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="c_tel" value="Telephone" onfocus="if(this.value=='Telephone')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Telephone';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_textarea"><textarea name="c_text" rows="1" cols="1" onfocus="if(this.value=='Text')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Text';">Text</textarea></div>
                            <div class="div_btn"><input id="form_send" type="submit" name="c_send" value="" /></div>
                            <div class="div_warnings"></div>
                            <div class="loading"><img src="" alt="Loading" /></div>
                            <div class="clear"></div>
                        </form>
                    </div>

PHP:

<?php
$field_name = $_POST['c_name'];
$field_email = $_POST['c_email'];
$field_message = $_POST['c_message'];

$mail_to = 'myemail';
$subject = 'Message from a site visitor '.$field_name;

$body_message = 'From: '.$field_name."\n";
$body_message .= 'E-mail: '.$field_email."\n";
$body_message .= 'Message: '.$field_message;

$headers = 'From: '.$field_email."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$field_email."\r\n";

$mail_status = mail($mail_to, $subject, $body_message, $headers);

if ($mail_status) { ?>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
        alert('Thank you for the message. We will contact you shortly.');
        window.location = 'mywebsiteurl';
    </script>
<?php
}
else { ?>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
        alert('Message failed. Please, send an email to myemail');
        window.location = 'mywebsiteurl';
    </script>
<?php
}
?>

I appreciate any help,

thank you.

Answer 1

First thing, i didnt look further because it will throw undefined variable notices here and therefore your form wont work:

<input type="text" name="c_name" value="Name" ...

$field_name = $_POST['cf_name'];

Look at the names. Use error reporting for detecting such mistakes.

Answer 2

<form action="contact.php" id="mywebsite" method="post">
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="cf_name" value="Name" onfocus="if(this.value=='Name')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Name';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="cf_email" value="E-mail" onfocus="if(this.value=='E-mail')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='E-mail';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_input"><input type="text" name="cf_tel" value="Telephone" onfocus="if(this.value=='Telephone')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Telephone';" /></div>
                            <div class="div_textarea"><textarea name="cf_text" rows="1" cols="1" onfocus="if(this.value=='Text')this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Text';">Text</textarea></div>
                            <div class="div_btn"><input id="form_send" type="submit" name="cf_send" value="" /></div>
                            <div class="div_warnings"></div>
                            <div class="loading"><img src="" alt="Loading" /></div>
                            <div class="clear"></div>
                        </form>
                    </div>

Your name of the input fields are should be same when you access the data of your destination file. form action is used to get your form data and process.so you should given your destination file name there!

sorry for my English!

i hope this help you!

Perhaps this will help? (add after existing $headers lines)

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding:base64 \r\n";
$new_message_body= $base64contents = rtrim(chunk_split(base64_encode($body_message)));
mail($to, $subject, $new_message_body, $headers);

Answer 4

Found the problem. In my html, I should have pointed action="" to my php page rather then my website. Thanks for the help.
