Hi,

 

Still not had much luck getting my contact form working over at my portfolio

 

My site

 

I have some AJAX which sends the input to a php page (process.php) but how can i then send it to my gmail account. Iv been trying PHPMailer but still not having alot of luck with that

 

Heres the Ajax

 

$(function() {
 $("#contact_form").submit(function() {
var name = $("input#name").val();
var email = $("input#email").val();
var phone = $("input#phone").val();
var reason = $("input#contact_reason").val();
var message = $("input#message").val();

var dataString = 'name='+ name + '&email=' + email + '&phone=' + phone + '&reason=' + reason + '&message=' + message;

	$.ajax({
     type: "POST",
     url: "/wp-content/themes/Portfolio/js/process.php",
     data: dataString,
     success: function() {
       $('#contact_form').html("<div id='message'></div>");
       $('#message').html("<h2  class='no-margin-title'>Contact Form Submitted!</h2>");
       $('#message').append("<img id='contact-tick' src='/wp-content/themes/Portfolio/images/tick.gif'/>")   
       .append("<h3>I will be in touch <span class='blog-sub-span'>soon</span></h3>")
       .hide()
       .fadeIn(1500, function() {
                 });
     }
    });
   return false;
});
});

 

What do i need to do in the process.php page to send it over to my gmail?

 

Thanks for any help

http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_secure_mail.asp should answer all your needs.

Hmm still not working, i currently have this in the process.php page as a test

 

<html>
<body>

<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['email']))
//if "email" is filled out, send email
 {
 //send email
 $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
 $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
 mail("ben.gibson.2011@gmail.com", "Testing",
 $message, "From:" . $email);
 }

?>

</body>
</html>

 

But im not getting anything in my gmail even in the spam folder

Your host may not allow the PHP mail() function to be used as it does not require any authentication. Try using just PHPMailer and setting it up with SMTP authentication.

 

You could also try this: http://www.dotvoid.com/2007/04/problem-sending-mail-with-php-mail-function/

 

Also, you posted this thread twice which makes it more difficult for people to help you consistently.
