I found this code for making a php email form for a web site. It works
fine on my ISP, but not on my friends...could it be that my ISP uses
php5, I know that hers does not, so I assume it's php4. Is there anyway
to tell? Here's the code. It sends me email fine, but when it's on her
ISP, it says it sent the mail, but nothing goes through.
<?php
if (isset($submit)) {
switch ($recipient) {
case "whole-family":
$recipient_email = "gregf@kcls.org";
$subject = "Gregs test php mail";
break;
case "Brian":
$recipient_email = "brian@meyer-family.com";
$subject = "Message to Brian";
break;
case "Jessica":
$recipient_email = "jessica@meyer-family.com";
$subject = "Message to Jessica";
break;
case "Eric":
$recipient_email = "eric@meyer-family.com";
$subject = "Message to Eric";
break;
case "Paul":
$recipient_email = "paul@meyer-family.com";
$subject = "Message to Paul";
break;
case "Dudley":
$recipient_email = "dudley@meyer-family.com";
$subject = "Message to Dudley";
break;
}
if (!empty($name) and !empty($email) and !empty($message)) {
if (mail ($recipient_email, $subject, $message, "From: $name
<$email>"))
$status = "<p>Thanks for your message, $name, it has been
successfully
sent!</p>";
else
$status = '<p>Your message couldnt be sent! Please try again or
send
us a conventional e-mail to
<a href="mailto:gregf@kcls.org">gregf@kcls.org</a>.
Thank you!</p>';
}
else
$status = "Please fill the highlighted fields!";
}
?>
