I'm currently facing an issue with sending an email from my website's form via PHP after the reCAPTCHA verification. Whenever I click the submit button, the page refreshes but the email is not being sent. I believe I might be overlooking something simple, as the solutions I've tried so far have been ineffective.
This process is taking place on localhost, and the email sends successfully without the reCAPTCHA code. I apologize for any lack of clarity in my explanation; I am still a beginner in this field.
Below is the HTML snippet:
<form class="contact100-form validate-form" action="#" method="post">
<span class="contact100-form-title">
Request a demo today!
</span>
<div class="wrap-input100 validate-input">
<input class="input100" type="text" required name="name" placeholder="Full Name">
<span class="focus-input100"></span>
</div>
<div class="wrap-input100 validate-input">
<input class="input100" type="text" required name="email" placeholder="E-mail">
<span class="focus-input100"></span>
</div>
<div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="MY KEY"></div>
</form>
And here is the PHP snippet:
<?php
/* [VERIFY CAPTCHA FIRST] */
$secret = 'SECRET KEY'; // MAKE SURE TO CHANGE THIS KEY!
$url = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret=$secret&response=".$_POST['g-recaptcha-response'];
$verify = json_decode(file_get_contents($url));
if($verify -> success)
{
$to = "<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="650008040c09250008040c094b060a08">[email protected]</a>"; // set your Email address
$subject = "SUBJECT NAME";
$email = $_POST['email];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$message = $name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'] ."\n\n" . "Contact details: " . $from . "\n\n" . "Company Name: " . $company . "\n\n" . "Company Industry: " . $industry . "\n\n" . "Company Size: " . $size . "\n\n" . "Phone: " . $phone . "\n\n" . "Location: " . $location;
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
// echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
// Alternatively, use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to a different page.
}
?>
