Free PHP Contact Form

In my quest to create a php contact form, I have run into many problems. With that in mind I am posting below the HTML and the PHP needed for a simple php contact form. This form has the added benefit of working on Apache being hosted with Godaddy, the worst hosting service ever, but the cheapest.

Good Luck!

Contact us using this form:
* Name:
* Email:
Phone:
Message:
A * indicates a field is required

HTML:

PHP: (be sure to save this page as contact.php in the same folder as the html page above)

$to = "insert the email addess you want the form to be submitted to here";

$from = $_REQUEST['Email'] ;

$name = $_REQUEST['Name'] ;

$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/plain;'."\r\n";

$headers .= 'From: Sales-Mailer <insert the email addess you want the form to be submitted to here>'."\r\n";

$subject = "Web Contact Data";

$fields = array();

$fields{"Name"} = "Name";

$fields{"Email"} = "Email";

$fields{"Phone"} = "Phone";

$fields{"Message"} = "Message";

$body = "We have received the following information:\n\n";

foreach($fields as $a => $b){ $body .= sprintf("%20s: %s\n",$b,$_REQUEST[$a]); }

$headers2 = $headers; // you don't really need to set all the data again for a second var, since it's the same values

$subject2 = "Thank you for contacting us";

$autoreply = "Thank you for contacting us. Somebody will get back to you as soon as possible, usualy within 1 hour. If you have any more questions, please consult our website at www.yoursitename.com";

if($from == '') { print "You have not entered an email, please go back and try again"; }

elseif($name == '') { print "You have not entered a name, please go back and try again"; }

else {

$send = mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers, "-f insert the email addess you want the form to be submitted to here");

$send2 = mail($from, $subject2, $autoreply, $headers2);

if($send)

{

header("Location: http://www.yoursite.com/thankyou.html" );

exit; //whenever you do a re-direct, use exit, or else it will keep trying to process your code many times

}

else

{

print "We encountered an error sending your mail, please notify youremailaddress.com";

}

}
