php-form-to-email 📨

A PHP script which sends form submissions to an email address of choice and offers a simple captcha to help prevent abuse.

Installing on your own site

1. Create a <form action="form-to-email/submit.php" method="post"></form> element, fill it with inputs e.g. <input type="text" name="first_name"> and make sure it can submit e.g. <button type="submit">Submit Form</submit>.
2. Copy the captcha question <label id="captcha"></label> and input <input type="num" name="captcha-response"> elements inside the <form... element you just made above.
3. Copy the hidden captcha solution element <input type="hidden" name="captcha-solution"> inside the <form... element you just made above.
4. Copy the <script src="form-to-email/js/script.js"></script> declaration somewhere near the bottom of the page.
5. Copy the form-to-email folder.
6. Replace the your@email.example at the top of form-to-email/submit.php with an email address where you want the form submissions to go to.
7. That's it! Go try out your new form.
