I'm brand new to code igniter and learning it as I'm working on this website
Basically I'm trying to get a contact form going but it's proving to be VERY difficult for some reason
I have the form displaying on my site and everything but when I submit it it goes to a blank page and doesn't send the email or go to success_view like it should
the page is:
http://www.vancouverticket.com/contact then it goes to contact/emailsender instead of running the email sender function
I'm sure I'm missing something silly but please help me out
I got the original code from:
https://github.com/furiston/codeigniter-...ll/1/files and modified the code a bit
here is the controller:
Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Contact extends CI_Controller{
function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
}
function index(){
// load email and form helpers ** you can autoload them from config/autoload.php
$this->load->helper('email');
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->model('Testimonials_model');
$navigation_data['testimonial'] = $this->Testimonials_model->show_random();
$header_data['page_title'] = 'Contact Vancouver Ticket';
$navigation_data['active_nav'] = 'contact';
$this->load->view('templates/header', $header_data);
$this->load->view('templates/left_navigation_view', $navigation_data);
$this->load->view('contact_view');
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
}
function emailsender(){
// load form validation class
$this->load->library('form_validation');
// set form validation rules
$this->form_validation->set_rules('sender_name', 'From', 'required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('sender_email', 'Email', 'required|valid_email');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('subject', 'Subject', 'required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('message', 'Message', 'required');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('contact_view');
}
else {
// you can also load email library here
// $this->load->library('email');
// set email data
$this->email->from($this->input->post('sender_email'), $this->input->post('sender_name'));
$this->email->to('[email protected]');
$this->email->reply_to($this->input->post('sender_email'), $this->input->post('sender_name'));
$this->email->subject($this->input->post('subject'));
$this->email->message($this->input->post('message'));
$this->email->send();
// create a view named "succes_view" and load it at the end
$this->load->view('success_view');
}
}
}
?>
and the view
Code:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Contact Us</title>
