A (contact) form:
Many people would like to have some sort of contact form on their website so people can get easily in touch with you or your company. Most of the time this is not as simple as it sounds. A contact form is a part of your website which requires changes to your website and even some additional files to process the information.
Code:
<form action="gateway.php" method="post"> <!-- ONLY CHANGE THE VALUES BELOW WHEN NEEDED DO NOT DELETE --> <!-- THE (FIXED) SUBJECT WHICH IS USED IN THE MAIL --> <input type="hidden" name="intern_onderwerp" value="My test message" /> <!-- THE MESSAGE THAT'S GOING TO BE DISPLAYED AFTER THE MAIL HAS BEEN SENT --> <input type="hidden" name="melding_verzonden" value="Thanks for your message" /> <!-- REQUIRED FIELDS; SEPERATED,BY,A,COMMA --> <input type="hidden" name="verplichte_velden" value="name,phoneno" /> <!-- --> <!-- [VERPLICHT_VELD] ZAL VERVANGEN WORDEN VOOR DE NAAM (NAME) DIE U AAN HET VELD GEEFT --> <input type="hidden" name="melding_verplichte_velden" value="[VERPLICHT_VELD] is empty" /> <!-- THE CONTENT OF YOUR FORM. YOU CAN ADD FIELS IF YOU WANT, MAKE SURE THAT name IS UNIQUE --> <p><b>Name:</b><br /><input type="text" name="name" /></p> <p><b>Phonenumber:</b><br /><input type="text" name="phoneno"/></p> <p><b>Emailaddress:</b><br /><input type="text" name="emailaddress"/></p> <p><b>Comment:</b><br /><textarea name="comment"></textarea></p> <!-- ONLY CHANGE THE VALUES BELOW WHEN NEEDED DO NOT DELETE --> <p><input type="submit" value="Send form" /></p> </form>
