Create an email form

I am somewhat proficient in coding and what I don't know that I try to learn on bulletin boards.  I am trying to create a very simple e-mail to a Web site form.  I have seen many codes online, but they are so complicated... I want simple.  After a lot of trial and error and days of research on discussion forums, I came with the codes below.  It seemed to work, I conducted tests, they went through every time.  Then they stopped (GoDaddy has messed around with MX records by the way).  GoDaddy told me that my code was wrong when I asked tech support.  I told them as funny because he had worked.  I have tweaked all differently, that I could imagine, some test emails have crossed, but whenever they would never happen again... even if I do not change the code a bit.  I called GoDaddy and explained this to them and they ran some tests and told me my code is fine, it's just 'expectation'... that's why I don't get emails from test immediately.  I told them it's very funny because if I send a test of hotmail e-mail, I'll receive it instantly.  I'm trying so know if my code is causing the problem or is it something else?  And, if my code is very good, why it doesn't send to the e-mail address or get 'file', yet, hotmail or yahoo mail can get there immediately?  Without further ADO, here's...  The form is in an html file, he heads to a php file, which then sends it to the e-mail address of the company (we use "[email protected]" as an example here).

HTML form:

< are method = "post" action = "" / submitted.php ">"

< p >

< label > your e-mail address: < / label >

< br / >

< input type = "text" name = "email" size = "40" style = "border- color: #000;" border-style: groove "/ >"

< /p >

< p >

< label > Question/comment: < / label >

< br / >

< name textarea = "query" cols = "50" rows = "10" style = "border-color: #000;" border-style: groove "> < / textarea >"

< /p >

< p >

< input type = "submit" name = "submit" value = "Submit" >

< /p >

< / make >

File 'Submitted.php '.


<? PHP

$name = $_POST ['email'];

$request = $_POST ["ask"];

$to = " [email protected] "; "

$subject = "E-mail client";

$message = '$name $request \n\n ";

mail ($à, $subject, $message);

? >

There it is.  Can anyone tell me if these codes are correct, or if there is nothing wrong or that I have excluded, that must be included (keep the simplest possible)?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Blake

I would not use your script. Even if it sends a message,

  • It's not: validation of form fields - even minimum.
  • It leaves your form open to exploitation and repetitive submissions from spam bots.
  • It is not disinfect form data.

You don't like it but security is essential.

  • Creating an email form multiple group subscriptions

    I am trying to create a landing page that will allow users to subscribe to several e-mail groups (such as the page list of subscriptions, but with a field to enter a new email address and language on subscription rather than unsubscribe), using check boxes to select the groups to which they want to subscribe to.

    I created a form with the fields, choice and e-mail list, but I don't see how to subscribe to a particular group e-mail based on the value of the list of choices, as the only way to make a conditional update of list of choice is to set the value to 'exactly' or 'not exactly' value.

    Basically, I did a work around, creating a form with an e-mail address field and a custom field check box for each newsletter.

    Then, I created a processing step to subscribe the user to each group of newsletter. For each of these steps, I put the condition that the corresponding field of the checkbox "match exactly" on.

    "" For example, newsletter Previews that we have, I created a custom checkbox field called "Previews" and implement processing step to add the user to the Subscriber group Previews when the field Previews "corresponds exactly to" on.

  • Create an email sign up form that appears in a list of search engine &gt; &gt;

    How would we go about creating a registration form email that appears in the list of links generated by a search engine after a search (as shown in the image below)? Has this been done before? I really like the lists that appear after the page of search results that allow the user to navigate through the different parts of a site from the search is there a way to implement a form that appears in one of these lists of registration E-mail?

    Picture 1.png

    I'd like to see a blank text box somewhere to the right of the list of page that says "insert email here" with a sign to alert button to the right... for those who search my site can sing for email alerts quickly and easily from the results page search engine. I would like to sign up for updates by email from the list. just like they can navigate my page by clicking on login / account summary / contact us excrement, it may be easier to click on the register button, I have their information, their finished, everybody happy.

    However you don't need a dedicated server. Shared is fine. Google is only reading the links in the code.

    John,

    Can you give me an example of a site on the hosting that displays in columns under the www.domainName.comsite links?

    Getting back to the original question of Scotty, Google will not collect and process electronic registrations for you.  It is not their business.  Then no.  You cannot add a form input field Google or any other SERPs.  At best, they can put a link to the page on YOUR SITE that contains the electronic registration form.

  • Creating an anonymous form in Adobe Muse

    When hosting with Adobe Business Catalyst, why you cannot create an anonymous form and send the participant to a success page after hitting the button submit without requiring an email address or a name? Is this a problem of Muse or Adobe Catalyst?

    the default email will be used as your Adobe account... If this email is American (hotmail), then that is their requirement that is to say, nothing to do with the Muse or Adobe, but you can still work around this problem by using a skilled hacker ($) and some e-mail-fo so mostly depends on what you want to use the e-mail form for?

  • I created a PDF form, sent to one person to fill in, but he was white * when they returned it. Why?    * a little

    On a trial, but you want to buy and literally my first experience as an Acrobat on a MacBook Air was this:

    I created a word doc form

    Transformed into a PDF file (via the print function)

    Open in Acrobat to create a fillable form

    Fact. Easy

    Yet, when I sent to someone and asked them to fill, he returned blank...

    ... except when I clicked on each field text magically appeared, before disappearing again.

    It is in the preview, so I opened in Acrobat and everything was good, and I could print it. Yet he recorded still virgin.

    Is this weird? Or I do something wrong?

    I use InDesign to create from producing an interactive PDF then it complete in Acrobat Pro. I don't know if the information below works with a product PDF fromMSWord.

    You need to drive turn on your form.

    How do depends on which version of Acrobat Pro you have. In Acrobat Pro ms, for example, after you have finalized your form you must:

    File > save as other > Reader Extended PDF. This version will now allow users to use their Acrobat Reader to fill out your form and save the data.

    (Also you can add print, clear form, buttons for forms of email to your form.)

    Make a copy of your form before you drive to allow him because once this has been done, it is not editable.

    I suggest that you have a practice with a simple test form before you continue with your.

  • Help creating an order form

    Hi, I need help creating an order form. I am creating a website for a company to "sandwich" where customers can place an order by selecting different buttons. Is it possible to create a page with buttons, which once pressed stores a value that is sent to an e-mail address after pressing a submit button.

    Here is an example:

    First page: two buttons - food | drink - select the food

    Second page: two buttons - roll | value of wand wand - select wand - saved

    Third page: several buttons - each a filling BLT - select BLT - various "sandwich" added at the end of 'wand' value

    Suite page: button to click on 'order' - email send to the address containing "BLT baguette.

    Is it possible to create with the Muse?

    If not, would it be possible to create the contact form with radio buttons, but replace the buttons with images or graphic text (so they look like button)? All this would be on a single page.

    Thank you

    Hi Josh,.

    There is no output from the solution of the box for this kind of form implemented in Muse. You can add checkbox fields to the form, however.

    Kind regards

    Hi people,
    I have created email forms web, standard "contact me" type ones ( http://www.allgoonerdup.com/ContactUs/Contact.php) as well as some more in depth more ( http://www.vipink.co.uk/LimoService/VIPLimoBooking.php) against the coding is the same for input text boxes.

    Looks like you need to add values for the "select" menu options. So, more like:

    The label is just in the interest of the browser (in general), and the value is what is presented to the script. From there on, the treatment would be the same in PHP (unless it's a multiple selection menu, you must manage the tabular value)

    Absolutely perfect! Thank you very much! It's another area, I can check now! Love your work!

    Hello

    Outlook Express is running XP.

    You would have helped us if you had given us your OS, while we knew as the default e-mail program...

    Vista's Windows Mail.

    Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider) Telstra? They provide your broadband / dial connection.

    Ask them to:

    1. your username with them

    2. your password with them.

    3 incoming mail POP3 server.

    4. the outgoing mail SMTP server

    All the settings that you need to come from them, not Microsoft; and they are usually happy to help you set up your e-mail program.

    You can use this guide to set up Windows Mail, too:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-mail-setting-up-an-account-from-start-to-finish

    In Windows 7, you can use Windows Live Mail.

    The Setup is similar to Windows Mail.

    See you soon.
