Hi Ajaxrand,
Thanks for suggesting.I code for contact form like this:
for 1st form :

<table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<td><strong>Contact Form </strong></td>
</tr>
</table>
 
<table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<td><form name="form1" method="post" action="mailform.php">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="16%">Subject</td>
<td width="2%">:</td>
<td width="82%"><input name="subject" type="text" id="subject" size="50"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Detail</td>
<td>:</td>
<td><textarea name="detail" cols="50" rows="4" id="detail"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>:</td>
<td><input name="name" type="text" id="name" size="50"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email</td>
<td>:</td>
<td><input name="customer_mail" type="text" id="customer_mail" size="50"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> <input type="reset" name="Submit2" value="Reset"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
 

And for 2nd form i code like this :

<?php
// Contact subject
$subject ="$subject"; 
// Details
$message="$detail"; 
 
// Mail of sender
$mail_from="$customer_mail"; 
// From 
$header="from: $name <$mail_from>"; 
 
// Enter your email address
$to ='[e-mail]'; 
 
$send_contact=mail($to,$subject,$message,$header);
 
// Check, if message sent to your email 
// display message "We've recived your information"
if($send_contact){
echo "We've recived your contact information";
}
else {
echo "ERROR";
}
?>
 

But its shows error As it disply :-
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [e-mail] in C:\Uniform3_1_1s\www\abc\mailform.php on line 23

Nice work ! There is No problem with your html form. But there are few issues with php script.

Didn't you try to get the POSTed values to Variables

$your_variable_name = $_POST['html_form_element'];

I didn't see them on the script.

Then The Error says something Like this, Your SMTP server doesn't allow you to send the mails.

If you are trying this on a Local server Set up your SMTP server to send mails.
