If that is where your form and processing code is located yes.

 

 

this is contact.php

 

 

<table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1">

<tr>

<td><strong>Contact Form </strong></td>

</tr>

</table>

<table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1">

<tr>

<td><form name="form1" method="post" action="send_contact.php">

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">

<tr>

<td width="16%">Subject</td>

<td width="2%">:</td>

<td width="82%"><input name="subject" type="text" id="subject" size="50"></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Detail</td>

<td>:</td>

<td><textarea name="detail" cols="50" rows="4" id="detail"></textarea></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Name</td>

<td>:</td>

<td><input name="name" type="text" id="name" size="50"></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Email</td>

<td>:</td>

<td><input name="customer_mail" type="text" id="customer_mail" size="50"></td>

</tr>

Yes, you are looking for $_POST['subject'] not $subject. Change all those ($subject, $detail, $customer_mail).

 

 

modified.. i see error Notice: Undefined index: mail_from in C:\wampp\www\itvideohelps\send_contact.php on line 15

We've recived your contact information

 

 

<?php

 

// Contact subject

$subject =$_POST['subject'] ;

 

// Details

$message=$_POST['detail'];

 

 

// Mail of sender

$mail_from=$_POST['customer_mail'];

 

// From

$header=$_POST['mail_from']; THIS LINE 15

 

 

// Enter your email address

$to ='octa@localhost';

 

$send_contact=mail($to,$subject,$message,$header);

 

 

// Check, if message sent to your email

// display message "We've recived your information"

if($send_contact){

echo "We've recived your contact information";

}

else {

echo "ERROR";

}

?>

It's telling you exactly what is wrong. In the $_POST array, there is NO index called 'mail_from'. 

 

This is your code:

$mail_from=$_POST['customer_mail'];
$header=$_POST['mail_from'];	 

 

Do you understand how variables work? What an array is? How forms work? 

The problem you have right now is basic logic. Would you expect this to work?

$foo = 'bar';
echo $myArr['foo'];

Cause that's what you're doing.

Only part of line 15 should have been changed.

 

The code you found/learned... is over 10years out of date, it also isn't validating anything so I hope you are not going to put this on a live web server where spammers can find it and send their email through your mail server.

yes , written this

$mail_from=$_POST['customer_mail'];

$header=$_POST['mail_from'];

and continue this error Notice: Undefined index: mail_from in C:\wampp\www\itvideohelps\send_contact.php on line 15

Read it and rephrase it in English. What do those two lines say?

Look at my example:

$foo = 'bar';

echo $myArr['foo'];

 

In english this says.

Assign the string 'bar' to a variable $foo.

Echo the value of the array $myArr at the key of string 'foo'. 

 

Will that do anything useful?

OMG then use your own language. ::)

 

Also, it's not just Americans who speak English. The UK, Canada, Australia and NZ, the nordic countries speak it well, South Africa, etc.

 

Romania no speak englishh

Then find a Romanian forum. 

 

Don't come to a forum where you can't communicate and ask us to write code for you. That is rude. The rules of this forum is we help you debug and fix your code. Not write it for you. If you need very detailed explanations and can't speak English, maybe don't go to a forum that is primarily English.

Here you go:

$mail_from=$_POST['customer_mail'];
//$header=$_POST['mail_from']; //no good 'mail_from' doesn't exist in the $_POST array, but it does exist as a variable.
$header = $mail_from; //good.
