Thread: Created a form for my website, BUT......

I created a form in my contact page and it turns out great, however when I tested it. When I submitted my tested information to my email. I am not receiving ANY email to my email (yahoo mail)

What is that I am doing wrong here and can anyone advise with me...

www.theultimatefitness.net go to the contact page....

Change the encoding type from plain text to multipart/form-data save and republish. Make sure you have the correct email address entered (one letter will throw things off, also if you used the form wizard make sure the "use built in PHP form processor" box is checked.

Okay will it work that php and the page itself is html? so it will send to my personal email??

whoa it gave me this... ???!!!!???

The page is still a php, did you name the form without any spaces? Also you will need to now remove the html version of the contact page from you public_html folder and republish the php version and change the links. When did you get that message because I did not get it.

So that means that entire contact page will be php while the others are html. some of the icon pictures does not work on php??

What do you mean by "change the links" ??

They should, it should not make a difference (as far as displaying images) whether its a php or a html. But yes any page with a form has to be php in order to work.

You links to the contact page, right now they are linked to contact.html they will need to be linked to contact.php after you publish the page.

I did what you told me to do and still not receiving emails to my yahoo mail.. whats next solution Ed?

Not really sure at this point, Navaldesign is our resident guru for forms and he ******* this forum pretty close, he should be around at some point tonight I would be patient and Im sure he will be able to solve your problem. Sorry bud but I dont want to lead to far a stray.

No plm, ED as I hope he does get online asap as I would love to have his input (george) so please let him know what I am doing okay thanks

Your form seems perfectly functioning, though you DON'T have a "success" page, so after submission it takes you to a "404 Page not found" error.

Please note that Yahoo mail has very strict spam filters, it even catalogs as spam normal mails. I suggest that you create an email account within your own domain, and use that email address for your form submissions.

Try the above and if it still doesn't work, post again.

Hey Naval, I got your testing information in my yahoo mail. How do I create email with the Bluevoda host?? If you think its best to have email from my domain name then you are going to have to explain to me how. Also what is the success page as could you give me example of the Success page is?

Also why people put in the anti-spam box for example they say "Is fire hot or cold?" in the contact form?? Is it needed to put that in my form??

If you got my submission, your form works. So you don't need to change anything.

Your second post: this is a type of captcha. It is used to avoid automatic form submission by net bots.

Hello Naval, how do you add the captcha on to my form in the Contact page that is already done as I prefer to have my own form instead of yours because there are some of the edit box I don't need. if I deleted some of your edit box in your form will it mess up the script that you made?

If it wont mess up then I could use yours to replace mine and maybe added a few edit box or another drop down menu.

I have created a thank you page and somehow the linking part does not work when I submit the to get the thank you page doesnt work. frustrated. :)

Hi could anyone help me on this? I have a form set up but I was trying to do what Navaldesign has in his download form as I just did coped the catcha section and I publish it and all I get is this:
