PHP Mail how to show success box on page - php

Question

I am new to PHP, and I made this PHP Mail, for a regular contact form... When the form is completed, the page is redirected and displays "The message was sent succesfully". The problem is, i don't want the page to redirect.. I want to show a feedback on the index, something like a success modal box or a simple text underneath the form "your message was sent"...
Any ideas on how to do this?
<?php
$nome = $_POST['nome'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$emaildestino = 'contato#zerodesign.com.br';
$email_from='contato#zerodesign.com.br';
$mensagem = $_POST['mensagem'];
$assunto = $_POST['assunto'];
$telefone = $_POST['telefone'];
$titulo = 'Mensagem - TESTE';
<?php
$nome = $_POST['nome'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$emaildestino = 'contato#zerodesign.com.br';
$email_from='contato#zerodesign.com.br';
$mensagem = $_POST['mensagem'];
$assunto = $_POST['assunto'];
$telefone = $_POST['telefone'];
$titulo = 'Mensagem - TESTE';
$juntando = '<p>Esta mensagem foi enviada pelo site</p><br/>
<p><b>Nome:</b> '.$nome.'</b></p><br>
<p><b>Email:</b> '.$email.' </b></p><br>
<p><b>Telefone:</b> '.$telefone.'</p> </br>
<p><b>Mensagem:</b></p>
<p><i>'.$mensagem.'</i></p>
<hr>';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\n";
$headers .= "From: $email_from " . "\n";
$envio = mail($emaildestino, $titulo, $juntando, $headers, "-r".$email_from);
if($envio)
echo "Mensagem enviada com sucesso";
else
echo "A mensagem nãpode ser enviada";
?>
Here is my form:
<form method="POST" name="contactform" action="envia.php">
<p><input id="inputt" type="text" name="nome" placeholder="Nome" id="nome" ></p>
<p><input id="inputt" type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email" id="email"></p>
<p><input class="inputt" type="text" name="telefone" placeholder="Telefone" id="telefone"> </p>
<p><textarea id="mensagem" name="mensagem" rows="5" cols="40" placeholder="Mensagem" id="mensagem"></textarea></p>
<input id="button" type="submit" value="Enviar"><br>
</form>

Answer 1

If i understand correctly, what you want to do is not visit the envia.php page, you'll need to send an AJAX call there instead. When the ajax call finishes, you can use javascript to update your index page with the success message.

I believe you are looking for something like:
PHP script added to the top of the form page redirecting to the same page
if(isset($_POST['nome'], $_POST['email'], $_POST['mensagem'], $_POST['assunto'], $_POST['telefone']){
...
$envio = mail($emaildestino, $titulo, $juntando, $headers, "-r".$email_from);
if($envio){
$msg = "Mensagem enviada com sucesso";
}else{
$msg = "A mensagem nãpode ser enviada";
}
}
HTML:
<form method="POST" name="contactform" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'];?>">
<p><input id="inputt" type="text" name="nome" placeholder="Nome" id="nome" ></p>
<p><input id="inputt" type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email" id="email"></p>
<p><input class="inputt" type="text" name="telefone" placeholder="Telefone" id="telefone"> </p>
<p><textarea id="mensagem" name="mensagem" rows="5" cols="40" placeholder="Mensagem" id="mensagem"></textarea></p>
<input id="button" type="submit" value="Enviar"><br>
<span id="msg"><?php if(isset($msg)){echo $msg;}?></span>
</form>
looking at your site you might want to add the <?php if(isset($msg)){echo $msg;}?> to the top of the page or add a js script that scrolls to the bottom of the page

Just make the action attribute empty like...
<form method="POST" name="contactform" action="">
So, the page will submit to itself.
