ginerjm Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Do you get the thank you for feedback message? Turn on php error checking - might have an error. What is the anchor tag with the onclick event supposed to do for you that a simple submit button doesn't do?

Frank_b Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Do you use a php editor ? You should see at once that you miss a php close tag. or is it because bad copy and paste work to this board? start all over like this: <?php $firstname = ''; $error = NULL; if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; //validation if(strlen($firstname) < 2) $error = 'Please fill in your firstname!'; if(!$error) { // do some actions like sending an email // redirect header('Location thankyou.html'); } } ?> <!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>My first Form</title> </head> <body> <p><?php echo $error; ?></p> <form action="" method="post"> <input type="text" name="firstname" value="<?php echo $firstname; ?>" /> <button type="submit">Send</button> </form> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/291534-contact-php-file-for-web/#findComment-1493157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
