However, what my problem is, is when I click on the send/submit button nothing happens.
Please help.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Try taking your form validation script out and see what happens.

Nothing happens or it does send you to /contact.php? when you hit the button, check the address bar and see where is it now, if you are still in index.php, there should be a problem with your javascript, else the problem should be in that php, in which I'll have to take a closer look... But try these things first....

A silly question, but you've checked to make sure that php scripts work fine on your server, correct? If so, then what do you mean "nothing happens?" As in it goes to the contact.php page and says the message wasn't sent; or when you click the button it doesn't even change to the contact.php page. If you problem is the latter then it's almost assuredly the javascript code that is bugging out. So remove the form validation code and then try to see if it works. If so we can help you troubleshoot the validation code...or you could simply rewrite it in php which might be easier, and would work with all browsers (even if someone has an anchient computer).

If you want to just use/modify another script lemme know and i'll be happy to post the one I wrote (which i know for a fact is in working condition).

Alright, here you go (this is a parred down version...without all my site specific crap). If you want help modifying this script to add extra functions just lemme know what you want, and i'll try and help you add it.

Like the origonal script that you posted this uses two pages, one with the origonal form, and one with the action. It is entirely possible to write the entire thing in one page instead...but this is just the way that I did it.

The first page is named 'contact.php'. It merely gathers the information to send to the second page. It is importaint that this be a php script if you want it to log the person's IP adderess, Refering page, and browser type.


Contact.php:
CODE
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html><head><title>Feedback php script</title>
</head><body>

<form method="post" action="sendmail.php">

<!-- DO NOT change ANY of the php sections -->
<?php
/* This section gathers the user's IP adderess, refering page, and browser name */
$ipi = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$httprefi = getenv ("HTTP_REFERER");
$httpagenti = getenv ("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
?>

<input type="hidden" name="ip" value="<?php echo $ipi ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="httpref" value="<?php echo $httprefi ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="httpagent" value="<?php echo $httpagenti ?>" />

Write any message you care to include here<br /><center>

<table border=0><tbody><tr><td>
<font color="red">*</font>Name: </td>
<td><input type="text" name="visitor" size="51" /></td></tr>
<tr><td><font color="red">*</font>Email: </td>
<td><input type="text" name="visitormail" size="51" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>&nbsp;Subject: </td>
<td><input type="text" name="subject" size="51" /></td></tr>
<tr><td><font color="red">*</font>Message: &nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
<td><textarea name="notes" rows="7" cols="50"></textarea></td>
<tr><td></td><td align="center"><input type="submit" value="Send Mail" /></td></tr></tbody></table></center>
</form>
<p>&nbsp; </p>
</body></html>


The second page is named 'sendmail.php'. It is responcible for all the error checking (if a problem is found it lists the problem, and gives the user the form to resubmit), as well as the actual sending of the email, and writting a confirmation message.

sendmail.php:
CODE
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html><head><title>Feedback php script</title>
</head><body>
<?php
$passedTests = "yes";

if(!$visitormail == "" && (!strstr($visitormail,"@") || !strstr($visitormail,".")))
{
echo "<h2>The following error(s) encountered:</h2>";
echo "<font color='red'>*Invalid email address. <br /></font>";
$passedTests = "no";
}
if(empty($visitor) || empty($visitormail) || empty($notes )) {
    if($passedTests == "yes"){
    echo "<h2>The following error(s) encountered:</h2>";
    }
echo "<font color='red'>*Please fill in ALL of the required fields. <br /></font>";
$passedTests = "no";
}

/*Prepare to send the email.  Formatting etc */
$todayis = date("l, F j, Y, g:i a");

$subject = $subject;

$subject2 = "****Subject of email you want to appear****";

$notes = stripcslashes($notes);

$message = " $todayis \n
From: $visitor ($visitormail)\n
Subject: $subject \n
Message: $notes \n
Additional Info : IP = $ip \n
Browser Info: $httpagent \n
";

$from = "From: $visitormail\r\n";

/*If all checks are passed, then send the email and display a thankyou message*/
if($passedTests == "yes"){
mail("****Your Email Adderess Here******", $subject2, $message, $from);
?>
<p align="center">
<h2>Thankyou for your feedback!</h2>
<center>

<br /><table border=0><tbody><tr><td>
Date: </td>
<td><?php echo $todayis ?></td></tr>
<tr><td>Name: </td>
<td><?php echo $visitor ?> ( <?php echo $visitormail ?> )</td></tr>

<tr><td></td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td>Message: &nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
<td><?php $notesout = str_replace("\r", "<br/>", $notes);
echo $notesout; ?></td></tr></tbody></table></center>

</p>
<?php
}
else{
/*Otherwise, display the orgional form again to allow the user to correct their input*/
?>

<br /><form method="post" action="sendmail.php">

<?php
