PHP form:
<?PHP
$email = $_POST["emailaddress"];
$to = "chris.pagemotion@gmail.com.my";
$subject = "New Email Address for Mailing List";
$headers = "From: $email\n";
$message = "A visitor to your site has sent the following email address to be added to your mailing list.\n
Email Address: $email";
$user = "$email";
$usersubject = "Thank You";
$userheaders = "From: chris.pagemotion@gmail.com.my\n";
$usermessage = "Thank you for subscribing to our mailing list.";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($user,$usersubject,$usermessage,$userheaders);
?>
Do I need a local sever like xampp or phpMyAdmin to make this work? Or did I do something wrong?, it keeps giving me the PHP page text after I keep submit, I didn't set up a local host.
