Phone: $phone
Comments: $comments";
$headers = "From: $email \r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>
The problem is when the recaptcha is verified on the form, it displays the checkmark, user can click submit, but I get a blank screen and email doesn't send. Any help is Greatly appreciated, have been working on this for about 3 weeks.

Answer 1

your currently redirecting before actually sending the email. here is your code restructured. also fixed the recaptcha response processing
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
$email = $_POST['email'];
$comment = $_POST['comment'];
$captcha = $_POST['g-recaptcha-response'];
if (! $captcha){
echo 'Please check the the captcha form.';
exit();
}else{
$response = file_get_contents("https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret=" . $secretkey . "&response=" . $captcha . "&remoteip=" . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
$responseKeys = json_decode($response,true);
if (intval($responseKeys["success"]) !== 1){
header('Location:http://mywebsite.com/.errordocs/404.html');
exit();
}else{
if (isset($_POST['Side_Form'])){//not sure what this is, hopefully you do :-)
$name = $_POST['name'];
$last = $_POST['last'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$comments = $_POST['comments'];
// Build the email (replace the address in the $to section with Enjoy's contact e-mail)
$to = 'somebody#somewhere.com';
$subject = "Main Contact Form";
$message = "Name: $name
Email: $email
Phone: $phone
Comments: $comments";
$headers = "From: $email \r\n";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
header('Location:http://mywebsite.com/thankyou.php');
exit();
}
}
}
}
?>
