Hi, I took over a website template for my business which had a php contact form, I'm now taking over a responsive website template and am trying to adapt the php contact form from my old website, I'm receiving an email but the fields are blank.

I've been at this for hours, if any one can see where I'm going wrong, I would be very greatful.

Many thanks
Kevin

Here's the code...and all the < are missing on html as this was the only way add this code to to forum..thanks

HTML

form action="contact.php" method="post" type="contactform">

input type="text" class="name" placeholder="name">

input type="text" class="email" placeholder="Email">

textarea placeholder="Message" required>
div class="submit">
input type="submit" value="Send Message">
/div>
/form>
PHP

<?php
$EmailFrom = $_REQUEST['email']; 
$EmailTo = "[email protected]"; // [email protected]
$Subject = "Contact form";
$Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['name'])); 
$Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['email'])); 
$Message = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['message'])); 

// validation
$validationOK=true;
if (!$validationOK) {
  echo "Error";
  exit;
}

// prepare email body text
$Body = "";
$Body .= "Name: ";
$Body .= $Name;
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= "Email: ";
$Body .= $Email;
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= "Message: ";
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= $Message;
$Body .= "\n";

// send email 
$success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>");

// redirect to success page 
if ($success){
  echo ""; 
} 
else{
  echo "Error";
}
?>

Try adding these to their respective input fields:

value="

<?php
 echo $Name;
?>

value="

<?php
 echo $Email;
?>

value="

<?php
 echo $Message;
?>
