Need to submit the form. echo "error; you need to submit the form!"; die; } $name = $_POST['contact_name']; $email = $_POST['contact_email']; $message = $_POST['message']; if ($_POST['contact_name'] == "" || $_POST['contact_email'] == "" || $_POST['message'] == "" ) { echo "Please fill in all boxes.";} else { $email_from = 'chris569x@gmail.com';//&lt;== update the email address $email_subject = "Message from the SGU Website"; $email_body = "You have received a new message from the SGU website.\n". "Message From: $name \n". "Email Address: $email \n". "Message: $message \n"; $to = "chris569x@gmail.com";//&lt;== update the email address $headers = "From: $email_from \r\n"; //Send the email! mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers); //done. redirect to thank-you page. header('Location: thanks4.htm'); echo "&lt;meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0; url=thanks4.htm'&gt;";} ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>The script seems to process correctly. I get the message if i try to access the PHP directly, I get the message if not all required fields are filled in, and I get re-directed to the page at the end of the script, but I never receive any emails. What am I missing? (I am very new to this)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
