1. Let's write the index.php / Here we use HTML
| <html> <head> <title>Contact</title> </head> <body> <body background="bg.gif"> <form action="send.php" method="post"> <pre> <center> <br> <br> <input type="text" name="email" value=""><br> Name <input type="text" name="name" value=""><br> Surname <input type="text" name="surname" value=""><br> Subject <input type="text" name="subject" value=""><br> Message<br> <textarea name="message" cols="60" rows="6"></textarea><br><br> <input type="submit" name="Send" value="Send"><input type="reset" name="Clear" value="Clear"> </form> </body> </html> |
Save this like index.php
2. Here we write the send.php page
| <?php if(($_POST['email'] == ") || ($_POST['name'] == ") || (is_numeric($_POST['name'])) || ($_POST['surname'] == ") || (is_numeric($_POST['surname'])) || ($_POST['subject'] == ") || ($_POST['message'] == ")) { echo 'Complete the forms correctly <br> Click <a href="index.php" mce_href="index.php">here</a> to return on main page.'; } else { $to = 'piticstyle@yahoo.com'; // change e-mail adress $send_date = date('d-m-Y H:i:s'); $subject = $_POST['subject']; $message = ' <html> <head> <title>Contact</title> </head> <body> <p><tt>Send Date: '.$send_date.' </tt></p> <table> <tr> <td><tt> Name: '.$_POST['name'].' </tt></td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt> Surname: '.$_POST['surname'].' </tt></td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt> E-Mail: <a href="mailto:'.$_POST['email'].'" mce_href="mailto:'.$_POST['email'].'">'.$_POST['email'].'</a> </tt></td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt> Message: <br><br> '.$_POST['message'].' </tt></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>'; $headere = "MIME-Version: 1.0rn"; $headere .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1rn"; $headere .= "From: ".$_POST['name']." ".$_POST['surname']."<".$_POST['email'].">rn"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headere); echo 'The message was send'; } ?> |
Save this like send.php
