Contact Us PHP page

[eleven0]

This is just a simple mail form that i found.

 

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>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> <input type="reset" name="Submit2" value="Reset"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

 

 

<?php
// Contact subject
$subject ="$subject";
// Details
$message="$detail";

// Mail of sender
$mail_from="$customer_mail";
// From
$header="from: $name <$mail_from>";

// Enter your email address
$to ='[email protected]';

$send_contact=mail($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";
}
?>

 

Nothing shows up in the mail. It shows "Unknown sender" and "nosubject" in mail. What is wrong?

You need to retrieve the variables from the POST array. For example:

 

$subject = $_POST['subject'];

we need to see the code for your send_contact.php page, if that is all it is above then you need to be looking at how to get information from $_POST values first of all.
