problem getting my contact form working

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Yeah I know this is a pretty basic problem, but it's been a while since I've worked with PHP and I'm having a real problem getting it functioning properly. My real issue is the user inputed information is not getting sent with the email. I haven't added all the fields to the email yet as I'm trying to get it right first then populating all of the fields. Anyway my code is below:

hairinfo.html
Code: <form name="hairinfo" method="POST" action="hair/EmailToForm.php">
<table border="0" align="center" background="images/blackopaque.png" class="contact">
<tr>
<td width="100">Name</td>
<td><input name="name" type="text" id="name" class="contactBox" size="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td width="100">Service</td>
<td class="contactBox">
<input type="radio" name="hairservice" value="Cut" id="hairservice"> Cut

<input type="radio" name="hairservice" value="Colour" id="hairservice"> Colour

<input type="radio" name="hairservice" value="Hair Up" id="hairservice"> Hair Up

<input type="radio" name="hairservice" value="Set" id="hairservice"> Set

<input type="radio" name="hairservice" value="Style" id="hairservice"> Style
</td>
</tr>
<td width="100">Address</td>
<td><input name="address" type="text" class="contactBox" id="address" size="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">City</td>

<td><input name="city" type="text" class="contactBox" size="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">Date</td>
<td><input name="date" type="text" class="contactBox160" id="date"/>
<script language="JavaScript">
new tcal ({
// form name
'formname': 'testinput',
// input name
'controlname': 'testinput'
});</script>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td width="100">E-Mail</td>
<td><input name="email" type="text" id="emailaddress" class="contactBox" size="30" ></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">Phone Number</td>
<td><input name="phone" type="text" class="contactBox" size="30" id="phone"></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td width="100">&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100" valign="top">Brief</td>
<td><textarea name="message" cols="23" rows="9" class="contactBox" id="message"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td width="100"></td>
<td><input name="send" type="submit" class="inputField" value="Send" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><em>For a faster reply, text your booking information to: 021 0259 6543</em></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
hair/EmailToForm.php
Code: <?php
// Contact subject
$subject ='Hair Booking';
// Details
$message="$message";

// Mail of sender
$mail_from="$emailaddress";
// From
$header="from: $name <$mail_from>";

// Enter your email address
$to ='kerry@manukadesign.co.nz';

$send_contact=mail($to,$subject,$message,$header);

// Check, if message sent to your email
// display message "We've recived your information"
if($send_contact){
echo "Thanks, we've recived your contact information<br />
and we will be in touch as soon as possible about your request";
}
else {
echo "ERROR";
}
?>
I would really appreciate any help offered.
Thanks
