Χαιρετισμους στην ωραια Κυπρο!

Your submit button is outside the form area. Extend the form area dowbwards, save and republish.
Remember to refresh your browser before testing or it might appear not working.

και χαιρετισμοί σε σας από την ηλιόλουστη, και όμορφη Κύπρο
I'm pretty sure that the submit button was already within the form area, anyway, I've extended the form area to make sure but, its still not working.

Hi Julie,

before, your submit button didn't work. Now it does. However, it doesn't find the action page (resulting in a 404 page not found error) because your action page is saved (and published) as "thank_you" (php) instead, in the form, you have set as action "action.php". Change the form action in "thank_you.php", save, publish, refresh, and test

Yes, you're right it is working to a degree. However, its probably me but I couldn't really understand your answer, would you mind telling me again. Sorry if I sound dumb.
Thanks

Ok, I see that you have set your form action correctly. Is it ok now ? does it send the email to your email address ?

Re: Contact form won't work, help please

It works in as much as the 'thank you' page comes up, which is great. But the email I get is from 'Mail Delivery System' with the subject

'Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender'

with the following message:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Is this what I should get?

Re: Contact form won't work, help please

No. It seems like you have pasted the script in your "thank_you" without changing the email address to be yours.

Please note that you must change " you@yoursite.com " to be the email address where you want to receive the email.
