[wp_mail() function] How to submit form without reloading page
-
Hi there!
I know this questions might be a bit ‘general’ and not necessarily WP-related, but I still hope to get some advice. I am having a form in my sidebar and the appropriate PHP code to process the form in the same file. Here is how it looks:
Form
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['../PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <input type="hidden" name="name" id="name" value="<?php echo $current_user->display_name; ?>"> <input type="hidden" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo $current_user->user_email; ?>"> <textarea name="message" id="message" placeholder="Your message..."></textarea> <input type="submit" name="submit" class="button" id="submit" value="Send" /> <div class="clear"></div> </form>
PHP-Code
<?php if($_POST) { $to = '###'; $subject = $name . 'sent you a message!'; $message = $_POST['message']; $name = $_POST['name']; $from_email = $_POST['email']; $headers = 'From: ' . $name . ' < ' . $from_email . ' >'; $mail = wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers ); } ?>
On successful submit I would now like to stay on the same page and have, for instance, the textarea field be replaced with a ‘successful icon’.
Any idea how I can achieve that?
Many thanks,
do77P.S. I have read endless tuts about jQuery, Ajax etc. and have implemented it like 10 times but it would never work for me.
