PHP Contact and Quote Form Setup

If you have AllWebco hosting see this page. The contact form and quote forms included with Allwebco templates use a CGI script to send mail. Your hosting area may not have CGI capabilities or you may be on a Windows server so you may want to go a different route. One option is to use a PHP script. You must have PHP installed on the host server for this to work and send e-mails through the forms.

Getting the PHP script:
Remember, your host server must have PHP installed for this to work. You may need to install PHP in your hosting control panel. After you download the script, check the included help files or directions for setup help.

The Basic Differences:
The main thing that will change in the template contact forms will be the hidden fields and the cgi calls. Areas that might change are indicated in red below. (you may just replace all the hidden fields and the script call. Follow the instructions included in the PHP script download.)

<form method=POST action="http://your-domain.com/cgi-bin/formmail.cgi" target="_top">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="recipient" VALUE="info@your-domain.com">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="redirect" VALUE="http://your-domain.com/thanks.htm">
