I'm a non-coder or a very new one. I adapted an existing HTML form to work in an email template. There is one field (user email address) and the submit button. When user clicks submit, a php script sends me an email with the data submitted. The thing works fine on Gmail & Outlook on the desktop, but it doesn't work when I am opening the email and clicking on the submit button on a mobile app (e.g. Inbox by gmail, outlook, or spark). The error I get (after being redirected to the mobile browser) is: "You need to submit the form" and a validation error (i.e. that no data was inputted). And while I do receive an email saying that the form is submitted, no data is receieved (even though I have inputted data for sure). Please help!
<?php
if(!isset($_POST['submit']))
{
//This page should not be accessed directly. Need to submit the form.
echo "error; you need to submit the form!";
}
$email = $_POST['email'];
//Validate first
if(empty($email))
{
echo "we need your email address for this to work!";
exit;
}
if(IsInjected($email))
{
echo "Bad email value!";
exit;
}
$email_from = 'hello@melltoo.me';//<== update the email address
$email_subject = "New Pay&Ship Beta User from Existing Users";
$email_body = "The user $email.\n is responding positively to your email".
"He/she wants to be a part of beta testing for Pay&Ship ".
$to = "hello@melltoo.me";//<== update the email address
$headers = "From: $email_from \r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $email \r\n";
//Send the email!
mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
//done. redirect to thank-you page.
header('Location: thank-you.html');
// Function to validate against any email injection attempts
function IsInjected($str)
{
$injections = array('(\n+)',
'(\r+)',
'(\t+)',
'(%0A+)',
'(%0D+)',
'(%08+)',
'(%09+)'
);
$inject = join('|', $injections);
$inject = "/$inject/i";
if(preg_match($inject,$str))
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
?>
