I'm trying to setup an Email Submit Form but keeps getting "There was an error processing your request." What I have done is created the form and added it to my site, I have also created the necessary text file that collects the email and sends it to a designated email address. When I tested the form I got the following message, "There was an error processing your request."

My form code looks like this

<form name="subscribe" id="subscribe" action="http://www.mysite.com/public_html/subscribe.txt" method="post">
<div><input type="text" name="email-subscribe" id="email-subscribe" /><input type="submit" name="submit-news" id="submit-news" value="Submit" /></div>
</form>

The text file

To: my@email.com
From: [email]
Subject: New subscriptions [name]


What is wrong with the above code? can someone help me out? What needs to be added?

Why do you use a txt file oO;

Perosnally I would use PHP inside the form page. Try to look up some php mail tutorials, they arent that hard and most are easy to understand.

Good Luck

I'm working on an email form myself.

That tutorial also shows you how to validate user input/email form.
