  • Before you fix your email script you should probably learn PHP security.

  • I cant reproduce the error.

    The code you posted doesnt have 29 lines.

    Anyway try replacing:
    echo 'Message sent correctly';
    with this:
    echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL=myOtherPage.php">';

  • You should not use header and echo together for successful message make seperate php page and print message of successfully sent there

    • can you elaborate an example?
      dont know much php really
  • Use PHP echo to call a meta tag page refresh to your desired URL.
