I have a contact form on my contact page.I can fill in the form and
when I click the submit button, I am redirected to the success page
but I dont receive an email. I did a test with a simple php mail test
form and that works! I have been at it for some time trying to find
the error. Please help
The relevant code is: (for the contact form)
<form action="process-form.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-
www-form-urlencoded" target="_blank" id="formMail">
<span id="textNameField">
<label for="name"></label>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" />
<span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is required.</
span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Minimum number of characters
not met.</span><span class="textfieldMaxCharsMsg">Exceeded maximum
number of characters.</span></span><span id="textEmailField"><br />
<br />
<label for="email"></label>
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
<span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is required.</
span ><span class="textfieldInvalidFormatMsg">Invalid format.</
span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Minimum number of characters
not met.</span><span class="textfieldMaxCharsMsg">Exceeded maximum
number of characters.</span></span>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span id="SelectionText">
<label for="select">Purpose</label>
<select name="select" id="select">
<option value="Appointment" selected="selected">Appointment</
option>
<option value="Comment">Comment</option>
<option value="Question">Question</option>
</select>
<span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select an item.</span></
span></p>
<p><span id="textinput">
<textarea name="textinput" id="textinput" cols="45"
rows="5"></textarea>
<span id="countsprytextarea1">&nbsp;</span><span
class="textareaRequiredMsg">A value is required.</span><span
class="textareaMinCharsMsg">Minimum number of characters not met.</
span><span class="textareaMaxCharsMsg">Exceeded maximum number of
characters.</span></span></p>
<p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit"
value="Submit" />
<input type="reset" name="reset" id="reset" value="Reset" /
>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</form>
the processing php form has this code

<?php
// Pick up the form data and assign it to variables
$name = check_input($_POST['name']);
$email = check_input($_POST['email']);
$select = $_POST['select'];
$textinput = check_input($_POST['textinput']);


// Build the email (replace the address in the $to section with your
own)
$ToEmail = 'rajesh(at)childsurgeon(dot)com';
$Emailsubject = "New message: $select";
$MESSAGE_BODY = "$name said: $textinput";
$mailheader = "From: $email";

// Send the mail using PHPs mail() function
mail($ToEmail, $EmailSubject, $MESSAGE_BODY, $mailheader);

// Redirect
header("Location: success.html");

function check_input($data)
{
$data = trim($data);
$data = stripslashes($data);
$data = htmlspecialchars($data);
return $data;
}
?>
