Contactable is a jQuery plugin designed to make contact/feedback forms simpler and more accessible. This plugin will enable you to create a contact form on any page of a site with minimal effort. If you have ever seen the feedback forms provided by kamypyle you will be familiar with the technique they use, however contactable makes this process even simpler by overlaying the content onto your page quickly and easily with a slide effect and inline validation.
Usage
Contactable takes care of a lot of issues for you, however the plugin does have a dependency on jQuerys validate plugin, which is included in this download. To start simply create a div with an ID:
<div id="contact"> </div>
You will need to call in the jquery framework as well as the validator to make this plugin work:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.validate.pack.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.contactable.min.js"></script>
To initiate the contactable plugin simply call the plugin on the ID of your div. In the download you will also see a mail.php file. It is important that you put this at the top level of the of your server as to make the ajax request successfully.
$(function(){
$('#contact').contactable({
subject: 'A Feeback Message'
});
});Important once downloaded open the mail.php file and navigate to the line 12. look for /*RECIPIENTS EMAIL ADDRESS HERE*/ and replace with the email address you wish to use.
mail('/*RECIPIENTS EMAIL ADDRESS HERE*/', $subject, $contactMessage);Options for contactable
There are a lots of extra parameters for contactable, you can adjust pretty much everything on the form in terms of how it displays. A new feature added in 1.2.1 is hideOnSubmit which by default is set to true, this simple hides the contact form once a message has been sent successfully.
name: 'Name', email: 'Email', message : 'Message', subject : 'A contactable message', recievedMsg : 'Thankyou for your message', notRecievedMsg : 'Sorry, your message could not be sent, try again later', disclaimer: 'Please feel free to get in touch, we value your feedback', hideOnSubmit: true
Demo
You can see the contactable plugin in action here. You can find all the styling included within the download, which has been tested on IE6 IE7 FF PC FF mac Safari. Thanks for checking it out, and please shout if you find any bugs or can think of ways to improve the plugin.

Only two changes are required.
1) Add this rule to #contactable #contactForm after position:fixed property “_position:absolute;”(without quotes, of course)
2) Change the rule *position:absolute in #contactable #contactable_inner to “_position:absolute;”(without quotes, again)

A minor buggette…
Line 80 of the contactable.js has:

Very bad idea, having recipients specified on the client side and then sending them through in the query string. You’ve essentially created a spam sender, any remote server can send countless emails through this… And what exactly is the appeal of this versus a pure server-side solution; one which would work for users with JavaScript disabled?
Also, since the email exists in the source code, it’s a very easy target for an everyday email-harvesting bot.

@James – Thank you for your concern. If spamming is something you are worried about I highly recommend modifying the plug-in to set your email in the mail.php file, this way your email address will not need to be passed into the form. I realize Ideally the plugin would do this for you, but I wanted to create something which would be accessible to a wider audience. If you have a solution to this problem please feel free to share it . As I have stated I am still learning this wonderful language myself so any guidance is always appreciated!

@Jimmy – I dont believe it is possible to switch the email that you receive the message from, However you could always pass the host email into a forwarder on a more preferable email address with your control panel.
You can hard code your email in the mail.php file like this:

foreach ($_GET as $k => $v) {
if (isset($c[$k])) {
if (!preg_match($c[$k], $v)) die(‘There is a problem with ‘.$k.’: ‘.$v);

The contact form does not work in IE6. The form is hidden but it affects the position of the surrounding html, this can be seen in the demo page.

Great plugin, works nicely however I had a question, once the form has been submitted, how can we allow the form to be called again?
E.g. User clicks send, then the form closes, if the user clicks Feedback again, it loads again with all the form elements being displayed again and the success message gone.
It’s generally bad practice to only allow the user to leave feedback once and have to refresh the page to leave another piece of feedback.
Thanks in advance.

@philipbeel, I understand, thanks for the reply. I don’t mean to sound cheeky but since I am fairly new to jQuery do you have any tips on how to implement this feature, I know how to do it from a CSS point of view (getting the feedback button back in view) but in terms of re-initialising the elements to be displayed and make them active again possibly on a “Send another message” click, how would I go about that. Are you aware of any jQuery functions which do this?
If I manage to get it working I’ll post the extra code here incase anyone else wanted to use it.

@James, Off the top of my head you would want to set hideOnSubmit: false, then set a timeout on the success callback, most of this can be done with with the .css() property. you would probably want to set the submit functions up as a .live() so you can use the function repeatedly. Good luck, let me know how you get on!

@philipbeel, thanks, I have just seen your reply, its a bit late I almost integrated the plugin with theme, I have certain issues, I placed mail.php in root of subdomain, If I use this path from demo programing running on local machine its working perfectly, but not from the integrated one, I almost blocked in thoughts. please throw me some insight, I just know a,b,c,d in php.

Hi,
Thanks for the excellent plug-in for WordPress. Can you let me know how to add this to HTML pages (instead of using the index.html in the download)? Is this (not plug-in, just code) works with Joomla CMS?. Any further details would be appreciated.
Have a wonderful weekend!

@Rahul, Hi you would need to remove the mail.php file and change the ajax call to point to your new file. doing a search for mail.php in the uncompressed version of the plugin will reveal it. Afraid I don’t use ASP.net so you are on your own from there.

Hi,
just thought to mention that for those who think your plugin demo site is not working, maybe they are blocking Google (i hear of more and more people who do so for a good reason (many good reasons).

Hi, and thank you for sharing this nice work. I’m trying to add a autorespond.php but with no luck. This file is just supposed to send a html mail with $name and $emailAddr parsed.
If i add include ‘autorespond.php’ to the mail.php after the mail function i get the error “Sorry but your message….”, but it is working and both mails are sent correctly.
To correct this error message i have tried to insert include autorespond.php in jquery.contactable.js but i really don’t know how.
Do you have any guidence to solve my problem? Thank you.

I tried to use the plugin in an UTF-8-encoded page and got several issues with the mail-function in mail.php: international characters are not supported, by default the sender address it taken from the server php.ini-file instead of using the user’s email-address, the required email-header informations are missing so the email will by chance classified as spam by the email-provider.
I am not a programmer, but I got it working by changing in mail.php the line
mail(‘/*RECIPIENTS EMAIL ADDRESS HERE*/’, $subject, $contactMessage);
to
$headers = “From: $emailAddr\n”;
$headers .= “X-Mailer: PHP/ContactableContactForm\n”;
$headers .= “MIME-Version: 1.0\n”;
$headers .= “Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\n”;
$headers .= “Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable\n”;
mail(‘/*RECIPIENTS EMAIL ADDRESS HERE*/’, $subject, $contactMessage, $headers);
It adds a basic “$headers”-array and uses the given user’s email-address.
It works fine for me, but I don’t know whether is makes the function insecure.
Thanks

Hello,
I think there is a bug in the “jquery.contactable.js” line 34, it is where Form is constructed. Note that labels for elements are hard-coded there and therefore “defaults” array doesn’t apply.

@Edmundo Junior, yes this should be possible, you will need to change a couple of parts of the plugin to do this:
- add the extra input field where the form in drawnin the plugin
- add an extra validation rule to the ID of the form field (if this field is mandatory)
- add the $(‘#ID’).val() into the ajax request in in the submithandler function to pass it into the mail.php page
- finally ammend the mail.php file to pull out your new $_REQUEST[] data and put this into the mail function.
I hope this helps you out!

@Edmundo Junior, To my knowledge this is not possible as the server is actually sending the email, so the from sender will be the server address. If you want to bypass this you might be able to do so with a mailer SMTP class or something like that.

@Jae Choi, You should ideally put the mail.php in the top level of your directory structure. The plugin assumes you are running PHP on your server. Do you have firebug on? if so open up the console, when you hit send check that the ajax call executes successfully, this will also give you the path that the mail.php file is being called from. It may be that you are calling the path incorrectly and that is why you are getting the message back.

2) the only modification to the mail.php file i made was entering my email addy (maybe i did it incorrectly).

But I have a problem with addings new custom fields like for example “Website” to the form.
I can add the field but when I click Send the whole form resets and no email is send.
I just don´t get it… can somebody help?

Hey Philip great script I just have a few problems and if you can help me that would be great.
First this script “loads” perfectly on all broswers but for some reason on Chrome and Safari (Windows) it doesnt “send” the actual e-mail and I get the “Sorry but your message could not be sent, try again later”
The second and last problem is in IE (Internet Explorer), The feedback bar doesnt scroll down as you scroll down the page like it does in all the other browsers.
Would you happen to know how I can fix this?
Operating System:
Windows XP
Firefox 3.6, IE 7, Google Chrome (newest version), Safari (newest version)
Thank you very much

Hi, when i try to send a message with your index.php, i get the error message : “Sorry but your message could not be sent, try again later” . For information i have replace the /*RECIPIENTS EMAIL ADDRESS HERE*/ by my email.
Use on FF 3.6 and Chrome.
Have you a trick for me ?

@User, do you have firebug installed on FF, if so check the console when you submit the form, you should see the ajax request being fired off. Make sure this is being located correctly.

@leo, What version of PHP are you running, you need 5.2.0 or higher. I have changed the plugin to use this instead of eregi() as it is depreciated in later versions.

@Chris, Hi, you could do this, although its not really within the scope of the plugin, I believe I have seen modified versions of this plugin around with CAPATCHA, you would probably need to incorperate another plugin with contactable and then change the validation rules.

I tested on IE7 and IE8 for some reason when I click on send after entering all the information in the form the page just reloads and I see this in the url box
“http://mydomainname.com/?name=jacob&email=apple@yahoo.com&comment=654uhihguguy”

I had this implemented on my site and working fine, until the design was changed. Now nothing shows, there are no javascript errors and I can’t see what the problem might be.
I had quite a few divs with the class ‘holder’ that were clashing with the css, so I changed every instance of holder in the contactable js and css to holder_contact. It obviously stopped the clash, but still no form appears.
Any ideas? Are there any divs that are vital that may have ambiguous names (you should change this btw, put a prefix on the id and class names) that I can try? Neither the wordpress plugin or the normal ones work. I’ve tried various jquery versions

I love this contact form but I am having a slight issue.

I checked firebug and it says it was a success so I’m stuck. Also, I’m still confused on everyone saying that the mail.php has to be in the top level of your server. I have my mail.php file in the web root (public_html) directory. Is that the correct place to put it?

@philip beel, for now a simple iMacros macro would let anyone send a extensive load of messages flooding the valuable ones.

Captha would be most sensible and bulletproof but my current client said that he hates it so that leaves some PHP ip blocking and/or multiple-posting delay.
http://www.fastsecurecontactform.com/ looks like a nice backend but I would have to go further than reading the main page ;P.
I’ll let you know if I find some sensible alternative for captha or I’ll try to convince my client that it’s necessary

January 15th, 2011
Wow that is a really awesome plugin! I have already used it on a ton of websites. I do have one question though. If I want to use my own service to submit the forms (i.e. emailmeform.com), how should I go about adding in my methods and such for submitting the form so the plugin does not use mail.php? For some reason, I added this: over the place of where the form starts and the ajax loader just keeps going and it never sends.I thought it might have something to do with mail.php, although I’m really not sure.
Any ideas?
Btw, thanks again for making this addon and keeping it updated, I’m sure it took a lot of time.

Hi Phillip.
I just step in here and set up the plugin and kind of works. Kind of, because even the email is sent and arrived successfully , I got the “sory your message cou…” error.
I noticed in the whole comment section many people had the same issue but unfortunately none of them was kind enough to offer a solution or any comment about it. On the other hand, this seems to be a recurrent problem. Maybe you can give us a little help on this issue.
I had to add the from because of my server need a valid account, I also added reply-to and no difference with this headers, the error message still appears.
Other things I noticed. I download the version from this page and you mentioned is 1.3, the file shows that but the version in the js is contactable 1.2.1
Thank you very much for this plugin, It’s very nice.
Works for a lot of people and I am sure this is just a minor issue to solve.

@Fab, I believe the error is telling you that the mail.php file was not found in the folder where the .js files were looking for it. That is why i made a template available with Contactable set up. Compare your .js files and folder structure with mine. Or try uploading my template to your root in the exact way i packed it, to see if it works then (don’t forget to change your email in mail.php when you test it).

It thinks you are looking in a different domain for your mail.php. In my zip file, only change your email to test it. Leave the path to mail.php in jquery.contactable.js relative. So do not give your full web address.

So I think this is a great contact form, but from what I gather a little bit unsecure. I’ve modified your mail.php. Some of the code is a bit repetetive and not very elegant but seems to work just fine:
//declare our assets
$to = ‘YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS HERE’;
$subject = ‘YOUR SUBJECT HERE’; //this will overwrite your jquery subject in the html
//the submission validation here may not be necessary as your js already validates it
if($_POST) {
$name = stripslashes($_POST['name']);
$emailAddr = stripslashes($_POST['email']);
$comment = stripslashes($_POST['message']);
$ip = $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR];
$contactMessage = date(‘d/m/Y’).”nn” . “Sending IP: ” . $ip.”nn” . $comment;
$headers = “From: $emailAddrrn”;
$headers .= “X-Mailer: PHP/ContactableContactFormn”;
$headers .= “MIME-Version: 1.0n”;
$headers .= “Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8n”;
$headers .= “Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printablen”;
//$headers = ‘From: ‘.$name.’rn’Reply-To: ‘ . $emailAddr . ‘rn’X-Mailer: PHP/’ . phpversion();
//Validate
$header_injections = preg_match(“(r|n)(to:|from:|cc:|bcc:)”, $comment);
if( ! empty($name) && ! empty($emailAddr) && ! empty($comment) && ! $header_injections ) {
if( mail($to, $subject, $contactMessage, $headers) ) {
echo(‘success’); //return success callback
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
} else {
return false;
}
Let me know what you think.

It works, but for some reason it isn’t sending the comment input. This is what I get sent to my inbox:
Message:
Name: Phil
E-mail: name@domain.com
Sending IP:xx.xx.xx.xx
Sending Script: simplisto.com/mail.php
As you can see, nothing appear after “Message:” – nothing looks wrong in the code. I have mail.php in the root and the .js files in a folder named “contactable”.
Any ideas?
Fantastic plugin though. Very useful.

Love the possibilities of this plugin, but I’m having some problems receiving the emails sent from the form.
PHP 5.2 on Unix box
The mail.php file and js scripts are all in the root, and upon form submission the success message appears and firebug states no errors, but I don’t get any of the emails – and yes I’ve check the spelling of the email address.
I’ve tried many of the solutions listed above for just adding a $headers variable which inturn places the FROM field at the end of the mail function, but I end up getting errors regarding a unexpected colon(:) on the variable line.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi! I don’t have a lot of experience with web development. A client recently ask me to build a site with the capabilities of a forum like the one in here where visitors can post comments and replay to the existing ones.
I’m really good adapting Jquery to my sites and I was able to incorporate the feedback feature shown in this page. however I really don’t know PHP that much.
Do any of you guys know what would be the simpler solution for making a forum like the one in here? A link of a site with tutorials could help.
I would really appreciate any help.

I have tweaked contactable.css for IE6 & IE7.
I hope it is useful.
Only two changes are required.
1) Add this rule to #contactable #contactForm after position:fixed property “_position:absolute;”(without quotes, of course)
2) Change the rule *position:absolute in #contactable #contactable_inner to “_position:absolute;”(without quotes, again)

@Navid, did you change jquery.contactable.js LINE:19
url: ‘http://YourServerHere.com/contactable/mail.php’, <- this should point to your mail.php location.
and I know I had to change mail.php LINE:18 from mail('YourEmailHere@gmail.com', $subject, $contactMessage); to mail('mymailhere@gmail.com', $subject, $contactMessage, 'From:info@IASASENDER.COM');
If you are using some CMS (like drupal – you have to put
jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery("#contactable").contactable({subject: 'Subject from http://mybookdepot.com URL:'+location.href});)

@Ben, You could do that by modifying the plugin on line 40:
$(this_id_prefix+’div#contactable_inner’).toggle(function() {
to use the id of a hyperlink, but you would need to do some slight tweaking to get this to toggle correctly.

Do you think it’s easy to create a second button under or above the feedback buttom that simply links back to the Home page. So a second home-page button that’s also scrolling up and down like this one but no form to be needed to collapse.

Hi Philip, thanks for a great contact form and explanation as to how it all works. I have been looking for a fast validation form and this works great.
However I slightly converted by not having it in the slider…it just sits on page in open view. But the 1 issue I am having is when the form says “Sorry but your message could not be sent, try again later”, it doesnt revert back to the form, it just sits on that text.
I know the function calls the “holder” which is where thr form sits, but I don’t think it is calling it for some reason…any ideas?

Hello, friend i found the problem:
The big problem is in the js files, because people just want to change the email, but if the link that calls the contactable not changed, will not work because the files are hosted on google and so when we try to send a message, the script does not reach the script that is on your server but google with default settings.
Step 1 – Go to maill php > change permission to 775
Step 2 – Yet on mail.php change YourEmailHere@gmail.com for your email.
Step 3 – Edit jquery.contactable.js and change http://YourServerHere.com/contactable/mail.php the full path to that file on your server.
Step 4 – Use this code
$(function(){$(‘#contactable’).contactable({subject: ‘feedback URL:’+location.href});});
remember change YOUTDOMAIN for your site.

@Matt, The plugin draws the form onto the DOM after it has loaded. The best way to add in your users details would be to set a loaded handler once the plugin has activated, so you can target the input fields.

How do you change the tab so it says Contact, rather than Feedback?
It says in the notes that it’s optional?

This is actually controlled by an image. You should be able to change it from there.

Great work Philip. I was wondering if it was possible to make the tab appear on the top of the page instead of the left. As it drops down from the top, the form still appears in vertical format and close back the same way. Hope you understand my query.

@Jayvik Patel,
Yes, this is possible to make the tab appear on the top of the page.
It requires a little javascript tweaking (Replace ‘Right’ by ‘Top’) and a CSS file modification..
Cheers!

I am having the same issue as brandon. I think it has to do with the “url” parameter in the contactable.js file. Any suggestions? my website is coastalkicks910.com

hi,
first of all a great plugin, thank you guys.
i run in to some problems, when i installed the plugin. my theme did not work so good. I think this has to do with the overlay.
I have a portfolio. when i hover over an portfolio image i get an overlay( this is part of the template).
when i installed the plugin, this didn’t work anymore. i also don’t see the mouse icon.
is there a way to solve this.??? it would be a shame too not use this plugin.
regards,
Said
