  1.  

    Just a thought, have you added 

    session_start();

    at the beginning of your email.php?

     

    You'll also want to keep the user on that page for a few seconds before redirecting to index.html as you'll want them to see the notice you've written, so add header

    header ("refresh: 5; url=index.html");

     instead of 

    header("Location: index.html");

    Thanks for the response changed the code to this;

    <html>
    <body>
    <?php session_start();?>
    Thankyou <?php echo $_POST["name"]. ","; ?> <br>
    <?php echo $_POST["email"]; ?> Will be contacted soon.
    <?php
    $to = "example@example.com";
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    $email =$_POST["email"];
    $message = $_POST["message"];
    $subject="Web Design";
    $headers = 'From:'. $email . "\r\n" .
        'Reply-To:'. $name . "\r\n" .
        'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)
    
    
    ( "refresh:5;url=index.html" );?>
    
    
    </body>
    </html>

    and the exact same thing has happened- a static white page is displayed. 

  2. I have the following html code for a form;

    <form action="email.php" method ="POST" >
          <label>Name</label><br>
          <input type="text" value="" class="form" name ="name"><br>
          
          <label>Email</label><br>
          <input type="text" value="" class="form" name ="email"><br>
          
          <label>Message</label><br>
            <textarea rows ="3" class ="form" name ="message"></textarea>
            
            <label></label><br>
            <input type="submit" value="submit">
            </form>

    the form has the action of a file called email.php-this file is meant to send the users details to an email address using the mail function. It contains the following;

    <html>
    <body>
    Thankyou <?php echo $_POST["name"]. ","; ?> <br>
    <?php echo $_POST["email"]; ?> Will be contacted soon.
    <?php
    $to = "example@example.com";
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    $email =$_POST["email"];
    $message = $_POST["message"];
    $subject="Web Design";
    $headers = 'From:'. $email . "\r\n" .
        'Reply-To:'. $name . "\r\n" .
        'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)
    
    header("Location: index.html")?>
    
    </body>
    </html>

    I have tried the code with a working email address however none of it seems to work- what happens is when the submit button is clicked the user is redirected a plain white page ("/email.php"). Looking for help urgently.  shocked.gif cry.gif
