asdgq9 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Hi, I want to post a simple comments box at the bottom of one of my web pages that will send the data from 3 different inputs, named "name," "costumer_mail," and "detail," to my email, but I am new to php. Can someone look at my php code and see what is wrong? I'm having trouble trying to find a spot to put the input "name" in the php. PHP: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" /> <title>Send Data Form</title> </head> <body> <?php // Contact subject $subject='Comment Posted From Website'; // Details $message=$_POST['detail']; // Mail of sender // From $headers=$_POST['customer_mail']; // Enter your email address $to ='******my e-mail address*****'; { mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); } // Check, if message sent to your email // display message "Thank you for your submission" if($send_contact){ echo "Thank you for your submission"; } else { echo "ERROR, your comment was not sent"; } HTML form: <form method="post" action="send_contact.php" name="comment_form"> <table cellspacing="0" style="width: 153%" class="style6"> <tr> <td style="width: 286px; height: 29px;">Name:</td> <td style="height: 29px"> <input name="name" type="text" style="width: 250px; height: 22px"/> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="width: 286px">E-mail Address/Phone Number:</td> <td> <input name="customer_mail" type="text" class="style4"style="width: 250px; height: 22px" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="style5"> <textarea name="detail" style="width: 582px; height: 157px"></textarea> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="style7" valign="top"> <input type="submit" name="Submit" style="width: 87px" value="submit" /> </td> </tr> </table> </form> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/230298-please-help-new-to-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambbarees Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 You can just concat the name to your "$message" by having $message="Comment from ".$_POST['name'].": ".$_POST['detail']; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/230298-please-help-new-to-php/#findComment-1186015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
