Here is a simple script to make a contact form with PHP.
First off you make a simple contact form, insert the following into any page: CODE <form method="post" action="form.php"> Name:<input name="name" type="text" id="name"><br> Email:<input name="email" type="text" id="email"><br> Subject:<input name="subject" type="text" id="subject"><br> Message:<textarea name="comments" id="textarea"></textarea><br> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="SUBMIT"> </form> Now make a page called 'form.php' and inser the following only! No html tags! CODE <?php //Declare the variables $recipient = "YOUR@EMAIL.HERE"; $message = "name: $name email: $email subject: $subject message: $comments"; //Contents of form $name=$_POST['name']; $email=$_POST['email']; $subject=$_POST['subject']; $comments=$_POST['comments']; //mail() function sends the mail mail($recipient,$subject,$message); //This line sends to thankyou page when finished header("Location: thankyou.php"); ?> To finnish you just need to make a page called 'thankyou.php' to thank the person for contacting you. I hope this will help someone out there! |

Whatever it is, it's not as good as what you put down, simple, and small-sized.

Whats not simple about his coding? it looks very simple to me and doesnt use anything advanced... I dont think you will find anything easier unless you just download a contact script and use that instead of simply coding it yourself  , besides PHP is fun stuff**Edit, im sorry, its 3am here right now and i have been misreadin stuff alot in the past 2 hours, i thought u were complaing about his code  , ne ways sorry about that.Off to bed for me, ZZzzzzzZZzzz

That's perfect for what i want to do! Where does the mail function come from though, is it OS specific? Anyone know? Wondering about how to set that up?

function sendmail($from,$subject,$body) { $to="youremail@youremail.com"; $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0 \r \n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 \r \n"; $headers .= "To: $to \r \n"; $headers .= "From: $sender \r \n"; $send=mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers); if(isset($send)){ return 1; } else { return 0;} } //Contents of form $email=$_POST['email']; $subject=$_POST['subject']; $comments=$_POST['comments']; //mail() function sends the mail if(sendmail($email,$subject,$comments)==1){header("Location: thankyou.php");} else{echo "Sorry! we got a problem with sending email, please try again later";} This is what i have done.
