This will be ideal for you, I found it on the Internet some time ago now and I'v been using it ever since (I don't remember who's it is or where I got it from) It is a PHP script, so make sure you have PHP installed and set up correctly! Hope this helps you! Enjoy.....!
| Code: |
<?php
/* Hi pschuch here is the feedback form you asked for! Just edit it and save it as filename.php....easy! */
/* Edit this section */
$to = "user@domain.com"; // E-mail address the feedback is to be sent to
$subject = "Domain.ext Feedback"; // Subject of the e-mail that the feedback will be in
$afterpg = "page.htm"; // Page to be linked to after feedback is submitted (e.g. index.htm)
/* DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE (Unless you know what you are doing) */
error_reporting(1);
# Compliance check
if($to == "user@domain.com") {
print "Please ensure that you have editted this file, as it told you to!";
exit;
}
# Mail the result
if(isset($submit) && ($email) && ($message)) {
if (eregi("^([_a-z0-9-]+)(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@([a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,4})$", $email)) {
print "<br><center><font face='Tahoma' size='3'><b>Success! Your feedback was sent successfully - Thank-you.</b><br>Click <a href='".$afterpg."'>here</a> to continue...</font><br><br></center>";
mail($to, $subject, "$message
IP: $REMOTE_ADDR", "From: $email") or print "ERROR: Mail was not sent";
}
}
?>
<p align="center"><font size="4" face="Tahoma"><strong>Feedback</strong></font></p>
<form method="post" action="<?=$PHP_SELF;?>">
<font face="Tahoma" size="1">Your e-mail address:</font><br>
<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="72" name="email" value="<?=$email;?>"><?if(isset($submit) && (!$email)) {echo " <font face='Tahoma' size='1' color='#FF0000'><b>Enter your e-mail address</b></font>";} elseif (isset($submit) && !eregi("^([_a-z0-9-]+)(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@([a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,4})$", $email)) {echo " <font face='Tahoma' size='1' color='#FF0000'><b>Enter a valid e-mail address</b></font>";}?><br><br>
<font face="Tahoma" size="1">Your message:</font><br>
<textarea name="message" rows="6" cols="40"><?=$message;?></textarea><?if(isset($submit) && (!$message)) {echo " <font face='Tahoma' size='1' color='#FF0000'><b>Enter your message</b></font>";}?><br>
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send"></p>
</form>

Hello richardyork
Thank you for your posting- this is what I am looking for.
I have tried to make the script run- but nothing happens.
What I have done:
- I have installed PHP as descriped under: http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/php.html
- I have installed the php-5.0.4- installer from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
- I have edited your code provided with my email details and saved as feedback.php
- I can see the form in the browser, add information and press "Send"
->
- The page stays as is (gets blank again)
- I get the following log entry in the web server log:
127.0.0.1 - - [31/May/2005:17:31:45 +0200] "GET /feedback.php HTTP/1.1" 200 625 "" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
127.0.0.1 - - [31/May/2005:17:31:58 +0200] "POST /feedback.php HTTP/1.1" 200 625 "http://www.mydomain.com/feedback.php" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
I would be glad if you could give me some ideas or tests to debug the setup. Maybe you see any error in the described process I have done.
Many thanks !!!!!
