doing some quick web dev work for a local body modification parlour just in

  • 0

doing some quick web dev work for a local body modification parlour just in my spare time; I’m trying to setup a Contact Us form, except when I hit submit, it just returns the die(); method. I’m not too sure what I’m doing wrong, because i’m used to programming Java, and I’d just get the error method for that. Haha. My code is as below if anyone is able to help me, the problem area is within the “contact” case.

<html>
<head>
<title>Darklite Tattoo & Piercing</title>
<link href="src/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" /></link>
</head>
<body bgcolor="000048" />
<?php include("src/config.php"); ?>
  <div align="center" /><img src="src/img/darklite_banner.jpg" /><br />
    <div id="main" />
        <?php echo("<a href=\"index.php\" />Home</a> &middot; <a href=\"index.php?x=profiles\" />Profiles</a> &middot; <a href=\"index.php?x=services\" />Services</a> &middot; <a href=\"index.php?x=contact\" />Contact Us</a>"); ?>
            <hr>
            <?php
                $x = $_GET['x'];
                switch($x) {
                    case "profiles":
                        echo("Le profiles.");
                    break; case "services":
                        echo("Body piercings and tattoo's.");
                    break; case "contact":
                        if ($_POST["email"]<>'') { 
                            $ToEmail = 'ihatejava@hotmail.com'; 
                            $EmailSubject = 'Site contact form '; 
                            $mailheader = "From: ".$_POST["email"]."\r\n"; 
                            $mailheader .= "Reply-To: ".$_POST["email"]."\r\n"; 
                            $mailheader .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";

                            $MESSAGE_BODY .= "Comment: ".nl2br($_POST["comment"])."<br>"; 
                            mail($ToEmail, $EmailSubject, $MESSAGE_BODY, $mailheader) or die ("Failure"); 
                        ?>

    To send a mail via php you need an smtp server. You can set it in your php_ini config file or by invoking ini_set beofre using mail function:

    ini_set('sendmail_from', '$from');
ini_set('SMTP', '$smtp_server_address');
ini_set('smtp_port', $smtp_port);
mail(...);
