Simple Contact Form will not send. Please Help!

Hi Jason,

I manually created a simple contact form instead of using the Form Builder wizard. Each form field element has server validation, show if server behaviour and spry validation applied to it. I have my form action set to the same page with method post and used Universal Email to send the form; however, it will not send.

I have tried several permutations of moving the codes about and finally settled at leaving the Universal Email after the server behaviour codes for each form element. I don't know why it is not sending. Please Help!

Thanks.

Are you redirected to the Index.php page or does the page just refresh? if the page just refreshes, the problem is the validation

one issue i see is that you have 4 instances of the Server Validation server behavior.

there should be only one instance of Server Validation. you can add multiple validations to the one server validation instance.

If the page redirects to the index page, the problem is the settings used for Universal Email.

Double check the From Address, make use it is a valid email address for your domain.

also, double check the Email Server Settings, depending on the host, you may need to enter an SMTP Server Address, or you may need to set the option in the from Settings to include the from address as an Extra Parameter.

Jason, I have reduced the instances of Server Validation Behaviour to just one and included multiple server validation instances in that one as you suggested. I have removed the redirect to index.php. The Universal Email is configured to use 'real' email address in the From field and To Field.

I am using SSL SMTP with authentication and have the correct credentials for Hostgator Server (which incidentally works perfectly with the double opt-in registration -Security Assist Wizard created pages) but the email will not send.

Please see attached revised php file.

What I am doing wrong?

to troubleshoot, add the following code at line 1:

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);

ini_set('display_errrors','on');

?>

in the server validations behavior, set the failed redirect to the same page, but add a URL variable:

$WAFV_Redirect = "get-in-touch.php?failed=true";

this way if ht eURL variable is present we know if the issue is validation or email settings.

aslo, add the following code at the end of the page just be fore the closing </html> tag:

<?php @session_start(); var_dump($_SESSION); ?>

include a link to your page after making the changes.

your page is not accepting the captcha code, this suggests there is a problem on the server saving sessions.

use the attached sessionTest.php page to ensure that the server can save sessions. if the session test fails, you will need to contact the host to have them correct the problem.

Jason, I uploaded the sessionTest.php to my root directory and tested it it appears to be okay. I also had the technical staff at Hostgator run a test and they too said it was fine. I do not know what to do?

I'll need to troubleshoot directly, see the private message section.
