# phpMailForm (en)
An application form built from an HTML form plus PHP's mail() — the form posts to mail_handler.php, which sends the subject and message with mail(). On success it prints "Your application was sent!", on failure "mail can't be delivered".
## mail.php
Copy
```
```
## mail_handler.php
Copy
```
if(!mail("info@jobexpresshk.com", stripslashes($subject), stripslashes($message), stripslashes($headers)))
{
echo "mail can't be delivered to ";
echo "
[ BACK ]";
}
else
{
echo "Your application was sent!
";
echo "
[ CLOSE ]";
}
?>
```
**output:**
```
Your application was sent!
```
