Soi tried creating a php form and it seems not to be working, it is not sending and no action is occuring. the code below is that if the HTML
<form id="form" class="vbottom-desktop grid default-form no-spacing lined-form mb-xl" action="php\mail.php" method="post">
<div class="col-2">
<input required type="text" placeholder="Name" name="name" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<input required type="email" placeholder="Email address" name="email" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<textarea required placeholder="Message" name="message" class="small form-control"></textarea>
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<input id="send" type="submit" value="Send" class="btn btn-primary">
</div>
</form>
and below this is that of the php
<?php
$subject = 'You have received this businessmail from';
$to = 'okonodestine99#gmail.com';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n" .
'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$message = '';
if (!empty($_POST["name"])) {
$message .= 'Name: ' . $_POST['name'] . ' <br/>';
}
if (!empty($_POST["email"])) {
$message .= 'Email: ' . $_POST['email'] . ' <br/>';
}
if (!empty($_POST["phone"])) {
$message .= 'Phone: ' . $_POST['phone'] . ' <br/>';
}
if (!empty($_POST["website"])) {
$message .= 'Website: ' . $_POST['website'] . ' <br/>';
}
if (!empty($_POST["message"])) {
$message .= 'Message: ' . $_POST['message'] . ' <br/>';
}
if (#mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
{
echo 'sent';
}
else
{
echo 'failed';
}
?>
any possible solution to this would be highly appreciated

Answer 1

you should use slash not backslash in url!
try this:
<form id="form" class="vbottom-desktop grid default-form no-spacing lined-form mb-xl" action="php/mail.php" method="post">
<div class="col-2">
<input required type="text" placeholder="Name" name="name" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<input required type="email" placeholder="Email address" name="email" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<textarea required placeholder="Message" name="message" class="small form-control"></textarea>
</div>
<div class="col-2">
<input id="send" type="submit" value="Send" class="btn btn-primary">
</div>
</form>
and make sure you put files like this:
root
|-- yourform.html(or .php whatever is that you're using)
|-- php
|-- mail.php
