This is my php file
<?php
// Check for empty fields
if (empty($_POST['name']) || empty($_POST['email']) || empty($_POST['phone']) || empty($_POST['message']) || !filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "No arguments Provided!";
return false;
}
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email_address = $_POST['email'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
// Create the email and send the message
$to = 'prasanna.venkatesan83@gmail.com'; // Add your email address inbetween the '' replacing yourname@yourdomain.com - This is where the form will send a message to .
$email_subject = "Website Contact Form: $name";
$email_body = "You have received a new message from your website contact form.\n\n" . "Here are the details:\n\nName: $name\n\nEmail: $email_address\n\nPhone: $phone\n\nMessage:\n$message";
$headers = "From: prasanna.venkatesan83@gmail.com\n"; // This is the email address the generated message will be from. We recommend using something like noreply@yourdomain.com.
$headers .= "Reply-To: $email_address";
$mail = @mail($to, $email_subject, $email_body, $headers);
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Cannot send e-mail";
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo "e-mail Has Been Sent To Your Email Address.";
return true;
?>
