Creating an Email Form with PHP HTML

PHP and
Prompt
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <title>Email Form</title> </head> <body> <!-- Your form will go here --> </body> </html>

Prompt
<form action="process.php" method="post"> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input type="text" id="name" name="name" required> <label for="email">Email:</label> <input type="email" id="email" name="email" required> <label for="message">Message:</label> <textarea id="message" name="message" required></textarea> <input type="submit" value="Send Message"> </form>

Here, the action attribute points to the PHP file that will process the form.

Prompt
<?php $name = $_POST['name']; $email = $_POST['email']; $message = $_POST['message'];

Prompt
$to = "recipient@example.com"; // replace with your email address $subject = "New message from $name"; $headers = "From: $email"; if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) { echo "Email sent successfully!"; } else { echo "Failed to send email."; } ?>

Prompt
$name = filter_var($_POST['name'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING); $email = filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL); $message = filter_var($_POST['message'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);

Combining HTML and PHP empowers you to create functional email forms. Always prioritize security, and validate form data diligently.
