       <?php
// ----------------------------------------- 
//  The Web Help .com
// ----------------------------------------- 
// remember to replace you@email.com with your own email address lower in this code.

// load the variables form address bar
$subject = $_POST["subject"];
$message = $_POST["message"];
$name = $_POST["name"];
$from = $_POST["from"];
$verif_box = $_POST["verif_box"];

// remove the backslashes that normally appears when entering " or '
$message = stripslashes($message); 
$subject = stripslashes($subject); 
$name = stripslashes($name); 
$from = stripslashes($from); 

// check to see if verificaton code was correct
if(md5($verif_box).'a4xn' == $_COOKIE['tntcon']){
// if verification code was correct send the message and show this page
mail("xxxxx@hotmail.co.uk", 'Name: '.$name, 'Telephone: '.$subject, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\n\n".$message,  "From: $from");
// delete the cookie so it cannot sent again by refreshing this page
setcookie('tntcon','');
} else if(isset($message) and $message!=""){
// if verification code was incorrect then return to contact page and show error
header("Location: contact.php?subject=$subject&name=$name&from=$from&message=$message&wrong_code=true");
exit;
} else {
echo "no variables received, this page cannot be accessed directly";
exit;
}
?>
