如何使此CSS联系表单与javascript一起使用？

Question

I want to insert this simple HTML/CSS contact form on my blog (blogger), the design is complete but since for this form to work (action='POST'), I do not know where to upload the php file. I tried uploading the php code on my google drive, and also on dropbox, but how to make my form access that php file? Every time I clicked on the submit button, blogger would give me an error msg.

Can I make this form work (ie the messages to be sent to my email id) by javascript/jquery or some other method?

<div>
<form action="http://bandeutkalajanani.in/mailc.php" id="contact" method="post" name="contact">
<h1>You want to tell me something? Please go ahead. I would love to hear from you. </h1>
<input name="name" placeholder="Type in your name, please (e.g. - Amit Pattnaik)" required="" />
<input name="email" placeholder="Type in your email, please (e.g. - amit@email.com)" required="" type="email" />
<input name="website" placeholder="Type in your Website/Blog, if any (e.g. - http://www.amitpattnaik.com) (Optional though)" type="url" />
<textarea name="message" placeholder="Now tell me what's on your mind?" required=""></textarea>
<label>*What is 6+3 (in words)? (Anti-spam)</label>
<input name="human" placeholder="Type your answer in words" />
<button type="submit">Press to send me the message.</button> 
</form>
<h1><?php include "http://bandeutkalajanani.in/mailc.php"?></h1>
</div>

mail.php

<?php
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $url = $_POST['website'];
    $message = $_POST['message'];
    $from = 'From: GoodDayEveryDay'; 
    $to = 'amitg@gmail.com'; 
    $subject = 'Message from a Blog visitor';
    $human = $_POST['human'];

    $body = "From: $name\n E-Mail: $email\n Website: $url\n Message:\n 

$message";


if ($_POST['submit']) {
    if ($name != '' && $email != '') {
        if ($human == 'nine') {              
            if (mail ($to, $subject, $body, $from)) { 
            echo '<p>Your message has been sent!</p>';
        } else { 
            echo '<p>Something went wrong, go back and try again!

</p>'; 
        } 
    } else if ($_POST['submit'] && $human != 'nine') {
        echo '<p>You answered the anti-spam question incorrectly!

</p>';
    }
    } else {
        echo '<p>You need to fill in all required fields!!</p>';
    }
}

Answer 1

I do not know where to upload the php file.

You need to upload it to web hosting that supports PHP and to which the URL specified in the action attribute of the form resolves.

I tried uploading the php code on my google drive, and also on dropbox, but how to make my form access that php file?

Neither Google Drive not Dropbox provide web hosting which supports any kind of server side programming. You need to get a proper web host instead of using a cloud storage service that happens to allow public sharing of (static) files.

Can I make this form work (ie the messages to be sent to my email id) by javascript

Not in any practical way.

In theory you could construct a mailto: URI and use JS to send the browser to it. Depending on how the browser is configured, this might simply fail or it might open a pre-filled-in email in the user's email client which they could click send on. This is an unreliable and user-unfriendly approach that you shouldn't go anywhere near.

/jquery

jQuery is a JS library. You can't do anything with it that you can't do with JS already.

or some other method?

You need a server side solution. Some companies will supply dedicated form to email gateways (ie a prewritten server side solution), but they tend to be inflexible.

Answer 2

You'll need some sort of server set up to handly the post request, it wouldnt matter if you do a standard http post from a form or use javascript/jquery ajax.

If you cant use your own server try a email service or a iframed form service such as wooforms
