I have this contact form from contact.html that I'm working on and I could not seem to make it functional. Whenever I click the button "Send Message" it will go to blank sendmail.php page. It doesn't show any error(s) instead. Doesn't matter if I filled it or not it will have the same result.
P/s: I'm still a noobie to php and this page is from a template so I'm not really dare to change it too much. (unless you have the solution of course lol)
the contact form:
<form class="contact-form row" method="POST" action="sendmail.php">
<div class="usermessagea"></div>
<fieldset>
<ul>
<li class="text-field with-icon span3">

<img src="images/contact-form/user.png" alt="" title="" /></span><input type="text" name="yit_contact[name]" id="name-contact-form" class="with-icon required" value="" />
</div>
<div class="msg-error"></div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</li>
<li class="text-field with-icon span3">

Is it has something to do with the php settings? Cos I'm using php ver 5.3.29 and the safe mode is On. I've made some research that it could be the problem but I could not find a way to turn it off. I'm using Plesk 12 and I can't find any options to turn the safe mode off.
Any feedback will much appreciated!
Hey guys thanks for the replies but I finally figured what's the problem. It's the email that is HAS to be domain's email address. I don't know why but I created a testing email testing@domain.com and use it as the $to and it works fine. Thanks for the help!
