58: How to Create A PHP Contact Form | PHP Tutorial | Learn PHP Programming | HTML Contact Form

[@remsan03]

I've spent the entire day trying to make my contact page works. Only this guy helpfully mention that Gmail can't receive any mail sent directly from php. My head hurts checking every line of code, thinking there's something wrong. The solution actually was so simple: use an email from your domain for $mailTo. Thank you, and I'm subscribing.

[@ThePublicTutorials]

Hey, I love how you actually get straight to the point and actually make videos with useful real life examples and not just speak theory or demonstrate cases that have no real life abutment! Your videos saved me from failing one of my uni courses. Thanks alot! If I were to be pointy about your tutorials I'd say that I wished you started off with showing the result (So that we can skip the video if it wasn't what we were looking for). But keep up the amazing content!

[@mohanmariswamy1321]

I was worried to not learning this since so many years as I was only concentrated on front end development. Thanks Dani :)

[@83greene]

Thank you so much for this video! I am complete php newbie trying to create php contact form on my website. I watched so many tutorials and I couldn't get it worked. Why? I tried to send email to my gmail address. Thank you for explaining that it won't work with Gmail! That just saved me whole afternoon of frustration!

[@abiodunfakunle4791]

[@haoql.7686]

I just like how easy and basic this video is to an absolute beginner of learning PHP. Thanks for making this video!

you all probably dont give a shit but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me!

[@HaanBerry]

@@gunnerjeremiah892 use the forgot password button lol

[@robcandy9273]

Was trying to do this last. Would not work. Not at all. Went to bed miserable. Woke up this morning refreshed with coffee and tried again... Still wouldn't work. After swearing loudly for a few minutes I notice something. One quotation mark missing!!! AAARGH This is why I'll never make a professional programmer :P It works perfectly now. Thanks for this tutorial

[@DH-qu8wh]

repeat this process several hundred times and you will be a professional.

[@natking1u1z99]

I bet you code professionally now, do you?

[@milijanaderic2271]

Thank you Dani! Thanx to your video, I managed to make a contact form on my portfolio web site working!

[@warrithshabazz8495]

My mistake was not capatilizing the POST inputs haha Thank you so much buddy. Its working!!

[@alexanderkwasiamoah1104]

I actually got this one straight after many attempts using other videos. Thanks.

How did you get it right, please, I have tried everything

[@billbyrd9845]

[@tommyp2135]

I been looking for hours to my question "Can i test my PHP form using local host? " Thank you for giving the answer =)!

[@Dani_Krossing]

Yes but it require quite a bit of setup

[@issarukayat5992]

You are an angel. Your method of impacting knowledge is awesome. I really appreciate all your tutorials. I have learnt alot from watching your video. I am new in programming. Thanks alot.

[@iajoe9077]

The way you teach us is super good and open Sir ❤. Thank you so much

[@CountingSheepsTonight]

It's a really reallyyyyyy good tutorial! Well done! You can be sure that I will come back and watch each tutorial (you can say that I have come here for a refresh tutoring and you've passed it big time!)

[@oldaccount-e4j]

Sometimes I feel that you teach way better than others

[@DesmondloveSonita]

I really love your manner of presentation and teaching sir

[@mettalove]

Thank you so much for providing tutorials for beginners. I'm happy you explain every step and don't skip over things. Now, have you made a video that shows how to add V2 checkbox recaptcha into a php/html contact form. I have a functioning form but have no idea where to place all of the code. Watching your html and php form videos is teaching me about my form in the meanwhile.

[@dougduran4591]

[@maaiziyas9854]

Hi, I would be grateful if you could make a tutorial on a functional shopping cart

[@ogbeide-ihamaosagie8851]

Hi after adding the code to my website when i click the submit button it just redirects me to contact.php and nothing happens no message is sent

[@devdeclan]

You are probably running it on an apache2 server, this cannot send data to your Gmail address, you have to have a website up with a domain for the data to send. The reason why it's redirecting you to your code on contact.php is that you don't have a domain, you just viewing it on a local file. Sorry if you don't understand, I can't explain properly.

[@shady7012]

@@devdeclan actually ive uploaded it on Fast.io but it still opens the php code in a new tab. even tho the site is online

[@michaelvanin1321]

This happened to me also at first until I realized that the page containing my contact form was not titled 'index.php' but rather something else (index.html in my case). Changed the contact form to reflect this, tested and worked. Thanks Dani for the tutorial.

[@hotdogjoe4039]

please tell me the set up that you are using to make this!? what kind of mic are you using? What software are you using to screen record!? Aside from the great short and sweet video about php. The quality of this video is so satisfying to me

[@Dani_Krossing]

I think I was using the Audio Technica AT2020 at this point when recording (+ a lot of post sound editing). And then I used Bandicam to record the screen.

[@hellangel28]

This is a tutorial to show how easy it is to send an email via PHP using native functionality, though it is not secure at all. Do not use a contact formular like this in any production/live environment! If you do not sanitize the user input, additional sendmail parameters can be injected, making it possible to remotely execute arbitrary code! I would highly recommend to use packages like PHPMailer or similar, which include mitigations against this type of attacks.

[@LeonardoGrinn]

The easiest tutorial ever !!

[@DemonIgnis]

when did he create the index.php file?

[@slap8704]

AMAZING EASY AND TO THE POINT. Thanks a lot for this tutorial! Got one question tho. is there a way to have a confirmation page or lightbox or an alert kind of thing once the email is sent?

[@danielambriz881]

I love this video! Do you have one in which you use the htmlspecialchars function in a form such as this one?

[@Dani_Krossing]

Hmmm don't think so... but you should add it after every form submission, even though I didn't in the video 🙂 So for example instead of: $message = $_POST["message"]; You write: $message = htmlspecialchars($_POST["message"], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
