PHP Contact form empty body (bootstrap) - php

Question

I am having trouble with my contact form (from bootstrap). the php code as well as the html code are as seen below. Whenever I try the contact form, the body will be empty. Am I missing anything?
This is the html code:
<form id="main-contact-form" class="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="sendemail.php">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span5">
<label>First Name</label>
<input type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your First Name">
<label>Last Name</label>
<input type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your Last Name">
<label>Email Address</label>
<input type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your email address">
</div>
<div class="span7">
<label>Message</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" required="required" class="input-block-level" rows="8"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-large pull-right">Send Message</button>
<p> </p>
</form>
This is the PHP code:
<?php
header('Content-type: application/json');
$status = array(
'type'=>'success',
'message'=>'Email sent!'
);
$name = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
$email = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
$subject = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['subject']));
$message = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));
$email_from = $email;
$email_to = 'mail#luckystarmaids.com';
$body = 'Name: ' . $name . "\n\n" . 'Email: ' . $email . "\n\n" . 'Subject: ' . $subject . "\n\n" . 'Message: ' . $message;
$success = #mail($email_to, $subject, $body, 'From: <'.$email_from.'>');
echo json_encode($status);
die;

Answer 1

Your name and email form elements don't have name attributes. Without them, they won't be posted to the form's action1, 2.
Add names to your inputs:
<input type="text" name="first_name" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your Last Name">
Also you will need to handle first and last name in your PHP code, at the moment you're only looking for name.

Answer 2

<form id="main-contact-form" class="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span5">
<label>First Name</label>
<input name=firstname type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your First Name">
<label>Last Name</label>
<input name=lastname type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your Last Name">
<label>Email Address</label>
<input name=email type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Your email address">
<label>Subject</label>
<input name=subject type="text" class="input-block-level" required="required" placeholder="Subject">
</div>
<div class="span7">
<label>Message</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" required="required" class="input-block-level" rows="8"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-large pull-right">Send Message</button>
<p> </p>
</form>
Try also to handle the data on the server. Check at least if the values are send:
<?php
if ( isset( $_POST['firstname'] )
&& isset( $_POST['email'] )
&& isset( $_POST['subject'] )
&& isset( $_POST['message'] ) )
{
$name = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
$email = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
$subject = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['subject']));
$message = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));
$email_from = $email;
$email_to = 'mail#luckystarmaids.com';
$body = 'Name: ' . $name . "\n\n" . 'Email: ' . $email . "\n\n" . 'Subject: ' . $s
ubject . "\n\n" . 'Message: ' . $message;
$success = #mail($email_to, $subject, $body, 'From: <'.$email_from.'>');
if ($success)
{
echo json_encode(array(
'success'=> true,
'message'=>'Email sent, you recieve an email at ' . $email
));
}
}
else
{
echo json_encode(array(
'success' => false,
'message' => 'An error has occured, please try again.'
));
}
?>
