I've been trying to send mail through the contact form on my website. I've used the POST method and that has seemed to work for another one of my projects, but now I'm puzzled as to what the problem is within the code. I've literally copy-pasted the code and still seem to come across the error. Also is there a way in which the name of the sender is displayed rather than the gibberish that actually ends up showing?
//PHP CODE
<?php
function has_header_injection($str){
return preg_match("/[\r\n]", $str);
}
if(isset ($_POST['submit'])){
$fname = $_POST['fname'];
$lname = $_POST['lname'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$msg = $_POST['msg'];
if(has_header_injection($name) || has_header_injection($email)){
die();
}
if(!$fname || !$lname || !$email || $msg){
echo '<h4> All fields required!</h4>';
exit;
}
$to = 'mymail8#gmail.com'; //FOR ELUCIDATION
$subject = $fname . $lname ."sent you via your contact form";
$message = "Name: ". $fname . $lname;
$message .= "Email: $email\r\n";
$message .= "Message:\r\n$msg";
$message = wordwrap($message, 100);
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $lname <$email>\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 1\r\n";
$headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\r\n\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
else{
echo "failed to send mail!";
}
?>

I know this question has been asked before, I have researched but can't seem to get to the route of the problem. I'm hoping someone can help. Ok so form seems to be working in as much as the form has to be completed before it allows to be sent, the form sends and an email arrives. Unfortunately the email fields are blank.
So here's the php:
<?php
$Body = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$Body .= 'Content-type: text/html; ch***t=utf-8' . "\r\n";
$Body .= 'From: '. $EmailFrom . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$EmailFrom = "info#mywebsite.com";
$EmailTo = "info#mywebsite.com";
$Subject = "Contact Form";
$Name = trim(stripslashes($_POST['Name']));
$Email = trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email']));
$Message = trim(stripslashes($_POST['Message']));
// validation
$validationOK=true;
if (!$validationOK) {
echo "please check your details";
header("Location: http://mywebsite.com/formredirect.html");
exit;
}
// prepare email body text
$Body = "";
$Body .= "Name: ";
$Body .= $Name;
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= "Email: ";
$Body .= $Email;
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= "Message: ";
$Body .= $Message;
$Body .= "\n";
// send email
$success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, "From: $EmailFrom" . "\r\n");
// redirect to success page
if ($success){
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"1;URL=formredirect.htm\">";
}
else{
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"1;URL=error.html\">";
}
?>
My HTML:
<form method="post" action="contact.php" name="contact" id="contact">
<div class="row 50%">
<div class="6u 12u(mobile)">
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="Name" required />
</div>
<div class="6u 12u(mobile)">
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" placeholder="Email" required />
</div>
</div>
<div class="row 50%">
<div class="12u">
<textarea name="message" id="message" placeholder="Message" required></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row 50%">
<div class="12u">
<input type="submit" class="button" id="submit" value="submit"></a>
</div>
</div>
</form>
I appreciate it's probably me being really dense. I'm new to this so am fumbling my way around. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!
The $_POST keys are CaSe SenSitIve
$_POST['Name'] is different from $_POST['name']
Either change the form name attribute or the POST keys so they match, i.e.:
FORM
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="Name" required />
...
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" placeholder="Email" required />
...
<textarea name="message" id="message" placeholder="Message" required></textarea>
...
PHP
...
$Name = trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
$Email = trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
$Message = trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));

I have a problem with receiving mail. I have tried different mail providers (microsoft, yahoo, gmail) and still not receiving mail. I am working on web site for my friend and I bought a bootstrap template with php contact.
I am using xampp and I have tried sending the mail that way and I have upload it on some other friends web site in sub folder and still not receiving it.
Here is the code:
HTML index.php
<form class="js-contact-form" role="form" action="mail/contact.php" method="post" data-parsley-validate>
<div id="msgInfo"></div>
<input type="text" class="form-control wow fadeInLeft name" data-wow-delay="0.2s" placeholder="Name" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter name">
<input type="email" class="form-control wow fadeInLeft email" data-wow-delay="0.4s" placeholder="Email" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter email">
<textarea class="form-control wow fadeInLeft message" data-wow-delay="0.6s" rows="6" placeholder="Message" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter message"></textarea>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-lg wow fadeInUp" data-wow-delay="1s">Send message</button>
</form>
Here is the contact.php code:
<?php
// PHP script for sending email
//
// Configuration
//
$toEmail = ""; // replace with your email where you would like to send email
$subject = 'Contact form from my website'; // replace with subject you want to receive
$body = 'You have received email from website:'; // replace with text that you want to receive in email
$from = ''; // replace with email that will look like sender
//
// ----- do not edit after this line if you don't understand what you are doing -----
//
if (empty($_POST['name']) || empty($_POST['email']) || empty($_POST['message']) ||
!filter_var($_POST['email'],FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL))
{
echo "Invalid input";
return false;
}
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$body .= "\n";
$body .= "Name: $name\n";
$body .= "Email: $email\n";
$body .= "Message: $message\n";
$headers = "From: $email\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $toEmail";
$res = mail($toEmail, $subject, $body, $headers);
echo "OK";
return true;
?>
This isn't my first time that I am working with php, in the past I had a working php(2-3 years ago) and I have tested that also but it doesn't work -.-
Can someone help me please.
You have to add name attribute for all input/textarea tags in your form so you can find them in your $_POST array
<form class="js-contact-form" role="form" action="mail/contact.php" method="post" data-parsley-validate>
<div id="msgInfo"></div>
<input type="text" class="form-control wow fadeInLeft name" data-wow-delay="0.2s" placeholder="Name" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter name" name="name">
<input type="email" class="form-control wow fadeInLeft email" data-wow-delay="0.4s" placeholder="Email" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter email" name="email">
<textarea class="form-control wow fadeInLeft message" data-wow-delay="0.6s" rows="6" placeholder="Message" required data-parsley-error-message="Enter message" name="message"></textarea>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-lg wow fadeInUp" data-wow-delay="1s">Send message</button>
</form>
and change this line in your php code ($ToEmail variable is always empty)
$res = mail($toEmail, $subject, $body, $headers);
with this
$res = mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);
Try to replace with this
$body .= "\n";
$body .= "Name: ".$name."\n";
$body .= "Email: ".$email."\n";
$body .= "Messagee: ".$message."\n";
and change the headers:
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers.= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers = 'From: '.$name."\r\n".'Reply-To: '.$email."\r\n".'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
Update
if($res){
echo "OK";
}
else{
echo "failed."
}
By this you can know whether your mail function in working or not.
Enable errors in php if not enabled using:
ini_set('display_errors',1);
I have a contact form in my website and it doesn't work properly. I get the email but the email it's empty, I don't get the information from the form.
the part of the html in my index.html
<form role="form" form name="contactform" method="post" action="send_form_email.php">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Nombre</label> <input type="text" name="nombre" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tu nombre" >
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Apellidos</label> <input type="text" name="apellidos" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tus apellidos" >
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email</label> <input type="emal" name="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tu email" >
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Telefono</label> <input type="text" name="telefono" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tu telefono" >
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Mensaje</label> <textarea name="mensaje" class="form-control" rows="7"></textarea>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default" value="Submit"> Enviar
</form>
</div>
the part of the php file called "send_form_email.php"
<?php
$nombre = $_POST['nombre'];
$apellidos = $_POST['apellidos'];
$telefono = $_POST['telefono'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$mensaje = $_POST['mensaje'];
$formcontent=" $nombre $apellidos $email $telefono $mensaje";
$recipient = "deniz946#gmail.com";
$subject = "Subject from $nombre";
$mailheader = "From: $email \r\n";
mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!");
echo "Thank You! We will get back to you as soon as possible!" . " -" . "<a href='./index.php'> Back to site</a>";
?>
<input type="emal" name="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tu email" > change to
<input type="email" name="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Introduce tu email" >
you have typo in type attribute.
Try this
<?php
$nombre = $_POST['nombre'];
$apellidos = $_POST['apellidos'];
$telefono = $_POST['telefono'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$mensaje = $_POST['mensaje'];
$formcontent = "{$nombre} {$apellidos} {$email} {$telefono} {$mensaje}";
$recipient = "deniz946#gmail.com";
$subject = "Subject from $nombre";
if(PHP_OS == "Linux" || PHP_OS == "Darwin") $new_line = "\n"; /* if Linux or Mac */
elseif(PHP_OS == "WINNT") $new_line = "\r\n"; /* if Windows */
$mailheader = "MIME-Version: 1.1" . $new_line;
$mailheader .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8" . $new_line;
$mailheader .= "From: ".$recipient.$new_line;
$mailheader .= "Return-Path: " . $recipient . $new_line;
$mailheader .= "Reply-To: " . $recipient . $new_line;
mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader, "-r" . $recipient) or die("Error!");
echo "Thank You! We will get back to you as soon as possible!" . " -" . "<a href='./index.php'> Back to site</a>";
?>
Perhaps I can help you with an example I used myself:
The HTML contact Form:
<div class="row">
<!-- Content -->
<div id="content" class="8u skel-cell-mainContent">
<section class="12u">
<header>
<h2>Contact</h2>
</header>
<form method="post" action="mail.php">
<div class="row half">
<div class="6u">
<input name="subject" placeholder="Name" type="text" class="text" />
</div>
<div class="6u">
<input name='email' placeholder="Email" type="text" class="text" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="row half">
<div class="12u">
<textarea name="message" placeholder="Message"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row half">
<div class="12u">
<!--a href="mail.php" class="button">Submit</a-->
<input type="submit" class="button" value="Submit">
</div>
</div>
</form>
</section>
</div>
The PHP processing of the form:
<?php
//mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters)
// Check if the "from" input field is filled out
//if (isset($_POST['from']))
//{}
$to = 'mail#xxxxxx.com'; // my email address
$subject = $_POST['subject']; //name client
$feedback = 'thank you, we will reply soon.';
$header = $_POST['email']; //Email client
$message = $_POST['message'];
$message = wordwrap($message, 70);
$message = <<<EMAIL
Dear (YOUR WEBSITE NAME HERE),
My name is: $subject
$message
Email Client: $header
EMAIL;
// send mail
if($_POST){
mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);
echo $feedback;
}
?>
Remember very carefully, the part from Dear... to EMAIL has to be against the left side of the screen, without any tabs or spaces. Else it won't work!
Hopefully you can use this to your success :)
I keep getting an error as follows when i submit my form. I'm not sure what it is. I'm running the site on WAMP (windows) and im writing it in dreamweaver CS6. Please note I'm fairly new to PHP. Thanks!

Your name attribute is msg your calling it message in PHP.
<label for="msg">Your Message</label>
<textarea id="msg" name="msg" spellcheck="true" ></textarea>
$msg = $_POST['message']; // no need to trim message
Also here...
$message .= "Name: $name\r\n";
$message .= "Email: $email\r\n\r\n";
$message .= "Message:\r\n$msg";
The first occurrence should be $message = because there is nothing to concatenate when it hasn't been initialized.
You are using
<textarea id="msg" name="msg" spellcheck="true" ></textarea>
Rather use
<textarea id="msg" name="message" spellcheck="true" ></textarea>
I have a simple contact form that is failing to send, I'm new to PHP so it's most likely I have forgotten something or the code is wrong. I understand that there are many questions on here around the same subject but I'm unsure about my code.
