Send mail with Php mail () function and landing page

Send mail with php mail() function.

Please review my code. It is not sending mail and the landing page is not being called. I have tested with another script to send mail on my host and it is working fine.

<?php

> if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
> 
>     $name=$_POST['name'];
>     $mailFrom=$_POST['email'];
>     $message=$_POST['message'];
>     $mobile=$_POST['mobile'];
> 
> 
>     $mailTo="xxxxx";
>     $headers= "From : ".$mailFrom;
>     $txt ="You have received an email from".$name. ".nn".$message. ".nn Mobile :".$mobile;
>     $subject="Information Request";
> mail($mailTo, $subject, $txt, $headers);
> 
> header("Location: xxx.html"); //to create a landing page and test
> }
> ?>

    I have changed the code to below and it is working. The issue was perhaps with the if statement

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Contact form</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    
    <?php
    
        $name=$_POST['name'];
        $mailFrom=$_POST['email'];
        $message=$_POST['message'];
        $mobile=$_POST['mobile'];
    
    
        $mailTo='[email protected]';
        $headers= "From : ".$mailFrom;
        $txt ="You have received an email from".$name. ".nn".$message. ".nn Mobile :".$mobile;
        $subject='Information Request';
        $mailsent=mail($mailTo, $subject, $txt, $headers);
    
        if($mailsent) {
    
            header('Location: xxx.html');
            } else {
            echo 'An error occurred. Please contact us by email xxxxxx.';
            }
    ?>
            </body>
            </html>

    Based on your code, I would start checking things out from your "if" statement. See if the statement is reachable or not.

    I would suggest you go through PHP mail function doesn't complete sending of e-mail . It covers everything.
