<?php # Script 10.1 - email.php
// Check the form submission:
if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) {
// Minimal form validation
if (!empty($_POST['name']) && !empty($_POST['email']) && !empty($_POST['comments']) ) {
// Create the body:
$body = "Name: {$_POST['name']}\n\nComments: {$_POST['comments']}";
// Make it no longer than 70 caracters long:
$body = wordwrap($body, 70);
// Send the mail:
mail('paul@wcrltd.co.uk', 'Contact form submission', $body, "From {$_POST['email']}");
// Print a message:

// Clear $_POST (So that the forms not sticky):

} else {
echo '<p style="font-weight: bold; Color: #c00">Please fill out the form completley.</p>';
}
} // End of main isset() IF.
// Create the HTML form
