    <?php
    // Name this file contact.php
    // Be sure to change the value of $to to your own email address
    // Be sure to name the file contact.php
    // the next line only runs the processing script if the form has been submitted.
    // the next line makes sure the email address is actually an email address
    // The "!" at the beginning means do the following if the email address is NOT true. Remove the "!" and it would mean IF IS TRUE
    if (!filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'email', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)){
    $message="Please provide a correct email address";} else {
    // strip_tags is a PHP function that removes all tags from a block of text. For instance harmful script could be injected in the form fields by a hacker. strip_tags will remove such scripts.
      $name = strip_tags($_POST['name']);
      $company_name = strip_tags($_POST['company_name']);
      $telephone = strip_tags($_POST['telephone']);
      $email = $_POST['email'];
      $comments = strip_tags($_POST['comments']);
      $to = 'your@emailaddress.com';
      $subject = 'Contact form submitted.';
      $body = $name. "\n" .$comments;
      $headers = 'From: ' .$email;
      // This is the line that actually mails the form data. The PHP function is simply mail(). The function needs to know:
      // who to send to
      // what the subject line should be
      //  what the email should consist of
      //  headers can include various info, but in this case just includes the email address of the sender
      // Note that if the email does not send, a message is returned to notify the user of the failure.
