Can't figure out why my contact form won't work.

Featured Replies

I have a PHP contact form on my site and I just figured out today that it is not working? It worked previouly with the other server I was hosting my site on.

 

What should I do?

They say they got PHP support so is there somthing I am missing? Should I just create a brandnew PHP form, if so where can I find a good one to replace what I have.

 

My site is robinsden.co.cc my contact is under home.

 

 

Thanks for any help into resolving my little problem.

what's not working about it?

 

It's not sending me any email. I have tried felling out the form my self to test it and it dose not do so.

Hi,

 

If you send an email programatically without authentication, make sure the hosting allows you to do that. Otherwise use POP3 client with an authentication.

 

Hope that helps.

What host? I can think of 2 hosts that have "changed things" in the last year or so that stopped standard php sendmail forms from working

One of my web forms got emails blocked by my host and the reason was that the viewer's email address was coded into the "from" part of the email, but of course the email was being sent from my domain's server and the viewer's email address was for a different domain and that seems like spam to a hosting service.

 

As soon as I changed the PHP form so that it sent the viewer's data "To" me and also "From" me with the viewer's email address in the content part of the email (ie sending an email to myself) the hosting service didn't consider it spam.
