Below I have my html and php coding. I've racked my brain trying several different options, but what I am really looking for is something simple and secure that either reloads to my original page showing sent message. As of right now I get this error message when submitting my form. Someone please point me in the right direction, any feedback is appreciated.

I am writing a contact form script from scratch The code is working correctly, but I am unable to prevent resubmissions if they user refreshed the page or press the submit buton more then once.
Also is it a bad practice to use self submitting contact forms?
I am a complete novice with PHP, I just want a simple email contact form that will display an error if a required field isn't entered, and will give a thank you message if the email is sent.
When I click my submit button the email does get sent but the website redirects straight to the /send-email.php page, which is blank and useless. The required form fields also don't seem to do anything in the way of preventing an email from being sent if the forms aren't filled.
HTML form code:
<form class="contact-form" action="php/send-email.php" method="post" novalidate>
<div class="row">
<div class="column width-6 pad-1 contact-column">
<h5>Your Name*</h5>
<input type="text" name="name" class="form-box" tabindex="1" required>
</div>
<div class="column width-6 pad-1 contact-column">
<h5>Email*</h5>
<input type="text" name="email" class="form-box" tabindex="2" required>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mt-2">
<div class="column width-6 pad-1 contact-column">
<h5>Your Website</h5>
<input type="text" name="website" class="form-box" tabindex="3">
</div>
<div class="column width-6 pad-1 contact-column">
<h5>Company</h5>
<input type="text" name="company" class="form-box" tabindex="4">
</div>
</div>
<div class="column width-12">
<input type="text" name="honeypot" class="form-honeypot">
</div>
<div class="row mt-2">
<div class="column width-12 pad-1">
<h5>Your Message*</h5>
<textarea name="message" class="form-text" tabindex="5" required></textarea>
</div>

</form>
Php file
<?php
$recipient = "contact#mysite.com";
$name = filter_var($_POST["name"], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
$email = filter_var($_POST["email"], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
$website = filter_var($_POST["website"], FILTER_SANITIZE_URL);
$company = filter_var($_POST["company"], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
$message = filter_var($_POST["message"], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
$headers = 'From: '.$name.' <'.$email.'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$email.'' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$subject = "New email from contact form";
$email_content = "Name: $name\n";
$email_content .= "Email: $email\n";
$email_content .= "Website: $website\n";
$email_content .= "Company: $company\n\n";
$email_content .= "Message:\n$message\n\n\n";
if(mail($recipient, $subject, $email_content, $headers)){
echo "Thanks for the email, we'll get back to as soon as possible!";
}
?>
Any help in the right direction is appreciated!
Check for empty input. Try using if else statement. eg.
if($name == '')
{
echo "Please fill in name";
}
else if($var == '')
{
//error message
}
or you can try
if($name == '' || $email == '' || $var == '')
{
echo "Please fill in all the blank";
}
I'm quite new too to PHP, so this is just a simple checking. Hope it'll helps!
I'm using this tutorial to create a contact form for my site and it doesn't seem to be working. After I fill in my form and press submit, nothing happens. I would like to know whats wrong with it and how I can fix it.
This is my code:
HTML:
<form action="mail/contact.php" method="post">
<div class="row control-group">
<div class="form-group col-xs-12 floating-label-form-group controls">
<label>Name:</label><br />
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" class="form-control" placeholder="Name"/>
</div></div>
<br />
<div class="row control-group">
<div class="form-group col-xs-12 floating-label-form-group controls">
<label>Email:</label><br />
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Email"/>
</div></div>
<br />
<div class="row control-group">
<div class="form-group col-xs-12 floating-label-form-group controls">
<label>Message:</label>
<textarea name="message" rows="5" id="message" class="form-control" placeholder="Message"></textarea>
</div></div>
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" class="btn btn-success btn-lg"/>
</form>
PHP:
<?php
// from the form
$name = trim(strip_tags($_POST['name']));
$email = trim(strip_tags($_POST['email']));
$message = htmlentities($_POST['message']);
// set here
$subject = "Contact form submitted!";
$to = 'name#mail.com';
$body = <<<HTML
$message
HTML;
$headers = "From: $email\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
// send the email
mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers);
// popup success
echo '<script language="javascript">';
echo 'alert("Your message has been sent!")';
echo '</script>';
?>
It's not a problem actually, you hace to change $to to $email in the email() method because the variable that has the email you want to send to is $email.
Your contact.php code will be:
<?php
// from the form
$name = trim(strip_tags($_POST['name']));
$email = trim(strip_tags($_POST['email']));
$message = htmlentities($_POST['message']);
// set here
$subject = "Contact form submitted!";
$body = <<<HTML
$message
HTML;
$headers = "From: $email\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
// send the email
mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);
// popup success
echo '<script language="javascript">';
echo 'alert("Your message has been sent!")';
echo '</script>';
?>
Another recommendation is to check this tutorial for a secure contact form.
Also you should check out this two php frameworks:
Symfony 2 Mail
Zend 2 Mail
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 am using below simple code to send mail using php. when i echo the line $headers = "From: . $email\r\n"; //echo $headers; exit; which results like From: . test#email.com.
I found dot is printing before mail address , so mail is coming but not properly.If i remove dot , mail is not even coming.Whats wrong with this code ?
<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['user_email']))
//if "email" is filled out, send email
{
//send email
$email = $_REQUEST['user_email'];
$user_name = $_REQUEST['user_name'];
$user_message = $_REQUEST['user_message'];
include 'contact_mail_form.php';
$to = "testtest#gmail.com";
$message = $contactText;
$subject = "Test Mail";
$headers = "From: . $email\r\n"; //echo $headers; exit;
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Thank you for using our mail form";
}
else
//if "email" is not filled out, display the form
{

</form>
<?php } ?>
Try it like this your dot is acting as string not as concatenation
$headers = "From:" . $email."\r\n";
Maybe because \r\n should be surrounded with " not '
And Also
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html'. "\r\n";
