    The instructions clearly say that you should ONLY change the parts in BLUE. You have also changed the third line and it is WRONG.
    Then, you have also missed the closing tag: ?> at the end of the script.

    The script must be pasted in the Inside Body (or Between head, or Start of page, it is not important) of your THANKYOU page. The thank you page MUST be published as php. And, the action of the form, must be the same as as the thankyou page name.
    So, if your thank you page is saved as "thankyou", and this means that it is published as "thankyou.php", the action of the form MUST be "thankyou.php".

          Re: Didnt Work Not Submitting Still

          First- in looking at your source code for your form, all the fields are named
          Editbox1, Editbox2, Editbox3 etc........... which is fine except that no field is named "email". Therefore, it does not pluck an email address from which to work with the code provided and thus hangs. So- please name your text box that houses the e-mail address of the sender to - email

          Second- as Naval has stated in the other post, only make changes to the lines in Blue.

          So- make the necessary changes and try again. IF that does not work- please copy exactly the php code you are using and post in this thread. No need to open a new thread.

              The form action is "thankyou" it should have a .php extension.
              example: thankyou.php

              Give that a try and it should work.

                i have added the php extension it still does not work should my thank you the example in the change the values in the blue but in the text area of that example it says email and email subject what should go in the third line ex.<?PHP
                $mailto ="exampleemail@example.com";*
                $email = $HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
                if ($email == "") {
                $email = $mailto;
                }
                $mailsubj = "Type your mail subject here";*
                $mailhead = "From: $email\n";
                reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
                $mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";What goes here ?
                while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))

                  Re: Need Help With Contact Form !

                  Do not change the third line. The error is that the thankyou.php page is not on the server. Have you published the thankyou.php? Open the thankyou page in the web builder and make sure you have:

                  Checked the php extension
                  Check the spelling that you named the page- it should be thankyou not- Thankyou or thank_you or Thank You etc.......
                  Make sure to publish

                  Then try again.
