PHP-based Form Mail (Feedback) Script

Using a PHP script, you may accept feedback from your website visitors and get the results emailed to you. You can use the sample script provided by Hostgator China and tweak it a bit to suit your requirements.

You would need to change the email address in the field $from to any email address on the domain name on which you are incorporating this script.

Example:

If your domain name is yourdomain.com, then you would define the From email address as some-name@yourdomain.com.

This email address need not be existing on the mail server of yourdomain.com; however, the domain name in the $from field has to be yours.

You may use an email address such as Do_Not_reply@yourdomain.com.

The value in the $mailto field needs to be changed to the email address, where the email containing the data submitted through the form needs to be delivered.

Once the visitor provides feedback, you can display a message to the visitor thanking them for their feedback.

Sample Script

   <?
        $mailto="some-name@yourdomain.com"; 
        $pcount=0;
        $gcount=0;
        $subject = "Mail from Enquiry Form";

        $from="some-name@abc.com";
        while (list($key,$val)=each($_POST))
        {
        $pstr = $pstr."$key : $val \n ";
        ++$pcount;

        }
        while (list($key,$val)=each($_GET))
        {
        $gstr = $gstr."$key : $val \n ";
        ++$gcount;

        }
        if ($pcount > $gcount)
        {
        $message_body=$pstr;
        mail($mailto,$subject,$message_body,"From:".$from);
        echo "Mail has been sent";
        }
        else
        {
        $message_body=$gstr;
        mail($mailto,$subject,$message_body,"From:".$from);
        echo "Mail has been sent";
        }
?>
