Help with 'Contact form'

[k_ind]

Hi All,

 

I am trying to create a contact form. The problem i am facing is with the 'submit' button. I want that when the submit button is pressed then the info of the form should go to my email. Can anyone tell the code for that?

 

Thanks!

Check out the mail() function on php.com.

Hi K_ind, The approach I would use is below. There are plenty of ways you could expand it but its the basic outline. It shows a form where you can enter your name and it will email the specified email address with the name you entered in the form.

 

<?php
if ($_POST["Submit"]=="Submit") {

// Get form variables
$name=$_POST["frm_name"];

//  mail
mail("email@address.com", "Email Subject", "The name entered in the form was $name", $headers)) {


}
?>
<form action="scriptname.php">
<input type="text" name="frm_name">
<input tye="Submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>
