Is This Possible Or Not?

[mydogisthebest]

Hi,

I would like the contents of a user submit form to be sent to me via e-mail from a Contact Us Page or Address Info etc for instance - (simple).

Now here's my problem:

I would then like the page to automatically go to PayPal for the user to pay for services etc, is this at all possible?

Is it simply just a case of redirect user or what :| this would need to be a seamless action or else user may not understand and end up not paying etc.

Any coding would be greatly appreciated.

Yes easily, just set the 'header location' to PayPal so when the form is successfully sent it redirects.

Something like this, change to suit.


<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$url = $_POST['url'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

$IP=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$HOST= gethostbyaddr($IP);

function check_email($email)
{
if(strpos($email, "@"))
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}

// Validation
if(3 < strlen($name) && 3 < strlen($email) && 4 < strlen($message) && check_email($email))
{


$email_message = <<< EMAIL

Message from online client.


Name: $name

Email: $email

Website: $url

Message: $message


User IP: $IP

User Host: $HOST

EMAIL;



if(mail('your@email.com','Contact Form', $email_message))

{
header( "Location: http://paypal.com" );
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, there was a problem sending your email. Please use the browser's 'back' button and check the form.";
}

}
else
{
echo "Sorry, there was a problem sending your email. Please use the browser's 'back' button and check the form.";
}
?>


Obviously this is very simple and could be elaborated on.

But what about if I was just using one form page and not a thank you page?

Save that code as say, feedback.php into your web directory and just set your forms action to that file location.

iKreativ,
Have you tested this, should be good if it is a seamless action.

Yes, it's running on my site now, just a slightly more elaborate version.

Do what with Javascript?

Hi, it's just that I have decided to insert the Contact Form in to a JavaScript that I already have on one of my sites, does php sit into a JavaScript, sorry it's been a while, updating my sites.

No need for JS, that PHP will work as is.

Sorry if I am coming accross as dim, but to be clear now.....

I have an Order Form in JavaScript that a user fills in and clicks submit - I then get the users details and order via email - and in turn the user gets seamlesly directed to Paypal for their payment, is all this possible using the JavaScript and the php combined! :(
