How to get my email form working?

1

Hello,
I’ve found several posts / threads on creating email forms. I uploaded both the Kirupa email form and another email form from

Neither worked for me and the only thing I changed was the email address. Wondering how to test why the email’s not getting to me? Am I forgetting something?
Anyone help me get either working, please??

Actionscript on flash button:

on (release) {
     // send variables in form movieclip (the textfields)
     // to email PHP page which will send the mail
     form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");
 }

PHP code

<?php
/***************************************************\
 * PHP 4.1.0+ version of email script. For more
 * information on the mail() function for PHP, see
 * http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php
\***************************************************/


// First, set up some variables to serve you in
// getting an email.  This includes the email this is
// sent to (yours) and what the subject of this email
// should be.  It's a good idea to choose your own
// subject instead of allowing the user to.  This will
// help prevent spam filters from snatching this email
// out from under your nose when something unusual is put.

$sendTo = "jonathan@developdesign.com";
$subject = "My Flash site reply";

// variables are sent to this PHP page through
// the POST method.  $_POST is a global associative array
// of variables passed through this method.  From that, we
// can get the values sent to this page from Flash and
// assign them to appropriate variables which can be used
// in the PHP mail() function.


// header information not including sendTo and Subject
// these all go in one variable.  First, include From:
$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . "<" . $_POST["email"] .">
";
// next include a replyto
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "
";
// often email servers won't allow emails to be sent to
// domains other than their own.  The return path here will
// often lift that restriction so, for instance, you could send
// email to a hotmail account. (hosting provider settings may vary)
// technically bounced email is supposed to go to the return-path email
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];

// now we can add the content of the message to a body variable
$message = $_POST["message"];


// once the variables have been defined, they can be included
// in the mail function call which will send you an email
mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);
