Web Developer Newbie needs help :(

Hey,

 

I'm a web designer that recently decided to go freelance, but I have little understanding of PHP and require help with some PHP code I use for my comment forms.

 

I have two forms on one of my pages and require them to go to different e-mail addresses.

 

Here is the PHP code before my DOCTYPE and HTML:

 

<?php
//If the form is submitted
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

//Check to make sure that the name field is not empty
if(trim($_POST['contactname']) == '') {
	$hasError = true;
} else {
	$name = trim($_POST['contactname']);
}


//Check to make sure sure that a valid email address is submitted
if(trim($_POST['email']) == '')  {
	$hasError = true;
} else if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {
	$hasError = true;
} else {
	$email = trim($_POST['email']);
}

//Check to make sure comments were entered
if(trim($_POST['message']) == '') {
	$hasError = true;
} else {
	if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
		$comments = stripslashes(trim($_POST['message']));
	} else {
		$comments = trim($_POST['message']);
	}
}

//If there is no error, send the email
if(!isset($hasError)) {
	$emailTo = 'info@mydomain.com'; 
	$body = "Name: $name \n\nEmail: $email \n\nSubject: $subject \n\nComments:\n $comments";
	$headers = 'From: Contact Form <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email;

	mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers);
	$emailSent = true;
}
}
?>

 

This is the first form, I want this to go to info@mydomain.com (Domain hasn't been set up yet but it works with another e-mail address)

 

<?php if(isset($hasError)) { //If errors are found ?>
	<p class="error">Please check if you've filled all the fields with valid information. Thank you.</p>
<?php } ?>

<?php if(isset($emailSent) && $emailSent == true) { //If email is sent ?>
	<p><strong>Comment Successfully Sent!</strong></p>
	<p>Thank you <strong><?php echo $name;?></strong> your comment has been placed in que for admin review and will be posted shortly.</p>
<?php } ?>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" id="contactform">
	<div>
	    <label for="name"><strong>*Name:</strong></label>
		<input type="text" size="30" name="contactname" id="contactname" value="" class="required" />
	</div>

	<div>
		<label for="email"><strong>*Email:</strong></label>
		<input type="text" size="30" name="email" id="email" value="" class="required email" />
            <p>This field is kept private and will not be shown publicly.</p>
	</div>

	<div>
		<label for="message"><strong>*Comment:</strong></label>
		<textarea rows="5" cols="50" name="message" id="message" class="required"></textarea>
	</div>
    <p><input type="submit" value="Post" name="submit" /></p>
</form>

 

Then the second form I want to go to brad@mydomain.com, I used the exact same code as the first form, and was hoping there was a possibility to have them send to different emails without having to link to an external PHP file.

 

thanks,

Brad
