Question

I only need a very basic/simple form to send the email but it doesn’t seem to work and I’m not sure why? I know the code isn’t very advanced and probably looking ‘ugly’ but it will do for what I ‘need’ it for

if (isset($_POST['email']))
{

    $full_name = $_POST['fullName'];
    $phone = $_POST['phoneNumber'];
    $adMessage = $_POST['emailMessage'];

    //send email
    $to = "[e-mail]";
    $from = $_POST['emailAddress'];
    $subject = $_POST['emailSubject'];

    $message = "Full name: " . $full_name . "\n";
    $message .= "Phone number: " . $phone . "\n";
    $message .= "Email Address: " . $from . "\n";
    $message .= "Additional Message: " . $adMessage;


    $headers = "From:" . $full_name;
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}

HTML

<form action='' method='post'>

    <fieldset><label id="fullName">Full Name</label>
    <input type="text" name="fullName" value="Please Enter Your Full Name" onclick="this.value=''"  /></fieldset>

    <fieldset><label id="emailAddress">Email Address</label>
    <input type="text" name="emailAddress" value="Please Enter Your Email Address" onclick="this.value=''"  /></fieldset>

    <fieldset><label id="phoneNumber">Phone Number</label>
    <input type="text" name="phoneNumber" value="Please Enter Your Phone Number" onclick="this.value=''"  /></fieldset>

    <fieldset><label id="emailSubject">Email Subject</label>
    <input type="text" name="emailSubject" value="Please Enter Email Subject" onclick="this.value=''"  /></fieldset>

    <fieldset><label id="emailMessage">Your Message</label>
    <textarea cols="10" rows="20" name="emailMessage" onclick="this.value=''" >Please Enter Your Message</textarea></fieldset>

    <fieldset><input type="image" src="images/submit.png" id="submit" onclick="show_alert();" /></fieldset>
</form>

Thank you 🙂

You haven’t set any input named email. Your first conditional won’t be evaluated to true, so you skip everything that follows.
