I'm searching in JavaScript ,but not found any matter,
I'don't Know PHP.I'm having lot of pressure of higer officials.Please
help me on this.
Higher officials seldom care about 'details' like learning a new language
from scratch. Why should they? They don't have to implement it themselfs..
;-)
Please give the Details of the PHP to send form data to given mail id
Name,email,phoneNo, Commnets...........thease are the fileds and by
click send it would be come to given to address mail id,
and how to run the php code, Please send the PHPCODE and Procee,I will
put it on the server
Nobody can send you complete code. Too many unknown variables.
But a good place to start:
www.php.net then type mail into the searchbox.
Also look at the mailfunction itself:
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php
Browse around a little and try to implement some code yourself on your
server.
The usercontributed notes contain a lot of usefull information.
Basicly what you do is this (But PLEASE don't do it like this because all
kind of ugly hackers will use your site to send spam. This is called
header-injection. You don't want that.):
1) Receive the forminformation
2) assemble the email (body, subject, to who? etc)
3) send the email
Suppose your html page has a form with the following elements:
- email
- name
- phonenr
- comments
And when the user clicks submit, you want that those 4 elements are send to
'm************@mindwave.com'
<?php
// receive the posted formelements, I made up the names myself.
$email = $_POST["email"];
$name = $_POST["name"];
$phonenr = $_POST["phonenr"];
$comments = $_POST["comment"];
// Please note that this input MUST be sanitised before using
// but for the sake of a simple example I don't.
$subject = "Somebody filled in a form";
$sendto = 'm************@mindwave.com';
$body = "Hi Malli,\nSomebody filled in a form.\n\n";
$body .= "Passed info:\n";
$body .= "email: $email\n";
$body .= "name: $name\n";
$body .= "phonenr: $phonenr\n";
$body .= "comments: $comments\n";
// Wordwrap the body to max 70 characters a line:
$body = wordwrap($body, 70);
mail($sendto, $subject, $body);
// done
?>
That is basically all.
But be warned, even veteran PHP programmers make mistakes with emailing,
simply because a lot can go wrong.
Like the abovementioned header-injection.
Or wrong headers set according to spamfilters, so your email never arives.
(try sending to hotmail.com if you need a headache)
You might want to use a lib/class to send email.
I use HTMLMimeMail a lot, for sending emails that have both text and HTML
content and/or attachments. (google for it if you want it)
PHP also have the PEAR packages that contain a good mail class.
Very good chances they are allready installed on your system.
Honest warning:
This might be over your head if you don't even know PHP. :-/
If you are on a tight deadline, you might consider hiring a PHP programmer
who did this before to help you out. Setting up a basic emailprogram
shouldn't take more than a day.
Good luck.
