php contact form

[j05hr]

I downloaded a simple contact form to put on my site..I'm more of a designer then coder so don't really know php.

 

It's just a simple name email address and message for now but when you go to enter an email address it says email address not valid, so how would i go about making it allow normal email addresses as i can't see where it goes.

 

<table width="760" border="0" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="0" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td align="center">

<?php 
if (isset($_POST["op"]) && ($_POST["op"]=="send")) {

  $sendto  = "";
  $subject = "Website Contact Enquiry";
// Select if you want to check form for standard spam text
  $SpamCheck = "Y"; // Y or N
  $SpamReplaceText = "*content removed*";
// Error message prited if spam form attack found
$SpamErrorMessage = "<p align=\"center\"><font color=\"red\">Malicious code content detected.
</font><br><b>Your IP Number of <b>".getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")."</b> has been logged.</b></p>";

replace this:

if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,6}$", $email)) {

 

with this:

if (!eregi("^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$", $email)){

Change all of "$HTTP_POST_VARS" to "$_POST"

 

$HTTP_POST_VARS is depreciated.
