How to send PHP email

puneetk · Mar 21, 2013

This used to work, but now it won't send the user input, just Message: Email: Name: etc. The php should be working, I think it is having trouble retrieving the html maybe?\[code\]<?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){$to="[email protected]";$subject="Tech Muffins Contact";$message="Name: ".$_REQUEST['name']."\n\nEmail: ".$_REQUEST['email']."\n\nMessage: ".$_REQUEST['message'];mail($to, $subject, $message, $from );}?><!doctype html><html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Tech Muffins</title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/icon.ico" />  <link href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/techmuffins.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script> <script src="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/virus_min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/hide.js"></script> </head> <body> <div id="header"></div> <div id="content"> <ul id="menu"> <a href=""> <li id="page">Home</li> </a> <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/#"> <li id="contact">Contact <form id="contactform" action="" method="post" autocomplete="off"> <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="name" autofocus required> <input type="email" id="email" name="email" placeholder="email" required> <textarea name="message" placeholder="message" required></textarea> <input type="submit" value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15557983/submit"></input> </form> </li> </a> </ul> <div id="currentvid"> <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NlB4g1IR0nQ?&iv_load_policy=3&rel=0"></iframe> </div> <h1 id="title">1.
