Warning I'm pretty new to php
So I made a basic contact form. It appears to be working but it's not sending any mail to my email address. I've made simple contact forms based on the model here and they work. The form is not throwing any errors and I added a redirect script if it post successfully. After submission it redirects as intended. What am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
$error = "";
if ($_POST) {
// Validation
if (!$_POST["name"]) {
$error .= "The name field is required.<br>";
}
if (!$_POST["email"]) {
$error .= "An email address is required.<br>";
}
if (!$_POST["content"]) {
$error .= "The content field is required.<br>";
}
if ($_POST['email'] && filter_var($_POST["email"], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL) === false) {
$error .= "The email address is invalid.<br>";
}
if ($error != "") {
$error = '<div class="alert" role="alert"><p>There were error(s) in your form:</p>' . $error . '</div>';
} else {
// Changed $emailTo for the sake of posting publicly. On my site it has my actual email
$emailTo = "email@email.com";
$subject = "Contact Inquiry";
$userName = $_POST['name'];
$userPhone = $_POST['phone'];
$userWebsite = $_POST['website'];
$userEmail = $_POST['email'];
$userContent = $_POST['content'];
$headers = "From: ".$_POST['email'];
$email_message = "Form details below.\n\n";
$email_message .= "Name: ". $userName ."\n";
$email_message .= "Email: ". $userEmail ."\n";
$email_message .= "Phone: ". $userPhone ."\n";
$email_message .= "Website: ". $userWebsite ."\n";
$email_message .= "Message: ". $userContent ."\n";
if (mail($emailTo, $subject, $email_message, $headers)) {
?>
// Again changed for the sake of posting publicly
<script> window.location = 'example.com' </script>
<?php
} else {
$error = '<div class="alert" role="alert"><p><strong>Your message couldn\'t be sent - please try again later</div>';
}
}
}
<form method="post">
<div class="fields-container clear-fix">
<div class="left">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="name" name="name" placeholder="Name">
