This is a very simple php form mailer that you can use to gather feedback from visitors to your site. It checks that the user has entered text into the name and email fields, but it does not check for a valid email address, or require that the user leave a comment (see below to change that option).

To use the form, simply "select all" in the box below, and cut and paste the code into a text editor. Insert your information into the $sendto="", $emailsubject="" and $thankyou="" values in the top three lines of the code, save the file as form.php (or any filename.php that you choose) and upload it to your site.

To require that the comment field be completed, replace this line:

Code :
// hide source code
// hide line numbers



1  $comments="The visitor did not comment."

with this line:

Code :
// hide source code
// hide line numbers



1  $message="Please leave a comment."

Code :
// hide source code
// hide line numbers



 1  <?
 2  $sendto="you@yourdomain.com";
 3  $emailsubject="Response from the feedback form.";
 4  $thankyou="Your message been sent, thank you!";
 5  
 6  if ($submit) {
 7  
 8     if ($visitorName <= "")
 9         $message="Please enter your name.";
10     else if ($visitorEmail <= "")
11         $message="Please enter your email address.";
12     else if ($comments <= "")
13        $comments="The visitor did not comment.";
14     if ($message)
15        echo ($message);
16     else {
17        mail("$sendto",
18        "$emailsubject",
19        "rnName: $visitorNamernEmail: $visitorEmailrnComments:rn$comments",
20        "From: $visitorName <$visitorEmail>");
21        echo ("<br /><br />     $thankyou");
22        die();
23     }
24  }
25  ?>
26  
27  <form method="post">
28  <p>
29  <font face="Verdana,sans serif" size="2">
30  Your Name:
31  </font>
32  <br />
33  <input type="text" size="40" name="visitorName">
34  <br />
35  <font face="Verdana,sans serif" size="2">
36  Your email address:
37  </font>
38  <br />
39  <input type="text" size="40" name="visitorEmail">
40  <br />
41  <font face="Verdana,sans serif" size="2">
42  Comments:
43  </font>
44  <br />
45  <textarea name="comments" cols=30 rows=10></textarea>
46  <p>
47  <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit form">
48  </form>

You can change the appearance somewhat by making changes to the html portion of the file.
