Help with PHP

Below is the php code starting from <!-- PHP CODE --> - copy, paste into new document and save it as - send_form.php

Change info@yourdomain.co.uk to your email address.

if the email goes through successfully it redirects to a success.html page (you have to create that with a message saying "Your email has been sent successfully". If it fails it redirects to a failure.html page (you have to create that with a failure message).

The email only gets sent IF all the form field are filled in which is what this line checks (if you want to allow a field to be empty then dont include it in the line of code)

if(!empty($the_name) || !empty($the_email) || !empty($vote) || !empty($choose_scale) || !empty($message))

There are other things you should do like check for a vaild email address but this will get you off the ground and running hopefully

<!-- PHP CODE -->

<?php

$email_from = "info@yourdomain.co.uk";

$email_to = "info@yourdomain.co.uk";

$subject = "Feedback from website";

$the_name = trim(stripslashes($_POST['the_name']));

$the_email = trim(stripslashes($_POST['the_email']));

$vote = trim(stripslashes($_POST['vote']));

$choose_scale = trim(stripslashes($_POST['choose_scale']));

$message = trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));

// prepare email body text

$body .= "Name: $the_name\n";

$body .= "Email: $the_email\n";

$body .= "Vote: $vote\n";

$body .= "Scale: $choose_scale\n";

$body .= "Message: $message\n";

// send email

if(!empty($the_name) || !empty($the_email) || !empty($vote) || !empty($choose_scale) || !empty($message)) {

mail($email_to, $subject, $body, "From: <$email_from>");

// redirect to success page

header("Location: success.html");

}

else{

header("Location: failure.html");

}

?>

Below is the form html (I've amended it slightly)

<form action="send_form.php" method="post" name="form1" id="form1">
