Simple Contact form

[lanawylma]

Hi All,

I downloaded Chris’s simple contact form, and, since I know pretty much nothing about PHP, I was hoping to get some help..

Below is my markup:

Name












Email














Phone


















Comments







Send

And this is the PHP that I modified (I was hoping that’s what I had to do) to match my markup:

$EmailFrom = "[email protected]";

$EmailTo = "[email protected]";

$Subject = "Nice & Simple Contact Form by CSS-Tricks";

$Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST));

$Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST));

$Phone = Trim(stripslashes($_POST));

$Comments = Trim(stripslashes($_POST));



// validation

$validationOK=true;

if (!$validationOK) {

print "";

exit;

}



// prepare email body text

$Body = "";

$Body .= "name: ";

$Body .= $name;

$Body .= "n";

$Body .= "email: ";

$Body .= $email;

$Body .= "n";

$Body .= "phone: ";

$Body .= $phone;

$Body .= "n";

$Body .= "comments: ";

$Body .= $comments;

$Body .= "n";



// send email

$success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>");



// redirect to success page

if ($success){

print "";

}

else{

print "";

}

?>

My issues are:

1. I receive the email, but the content is empty
2. How do I modify the From field so that it would show actual email it came from instead of static email I set..
3. I would like to get rid of the re-direct page as I’m using this form on the footer of a website..

Thanks a bunch in advance and sorry for very basic question!

I’m having the same issue with an empty email.. I get the template printed, but the user input is not printed in the email.

Hi, I’m having the same problem with an empty email. I removed ‘print’ which just made the whole thing hang.

Any advice to get this working?

This is a really good contact form if you don’t know what you’re doing.
