Showing modal Popup in PHP as Alert Message Box

In this post, I am going to explain about showing a popup message box using bootstrap modal popup in PHP. In this post i am going to use PHP, JavaScript, Ajax and bootstrap. First I need to create a form where the user can fill the data and this data will be sent to specified email address and after sending the data to the email address the modal popup will be displayed with a message and if the user try to submit the form without filling the data, it still shows a message of error.

Step 1

initially you need to create a HTML form which can be submitted with details while you are creating a html just give a id such as id="submitform" which will be used in JS code and also define a method to post such as method="post", These all will be defined in form tag these are the attributes of form tag so you can define as following.

<form action="#" class="form-group" autocomplete="off" id="submitform" method="post">

After making the form tag in HTML, you need to make fields which can be used while you are submitting the form. You need to define these field’s id such as id="name" this id is the attribute which is used to provide the id of an element so full syntax to define a input field is following.

<input type="text" name="name" class="form-control" id="name" placeholder="Name" required>

By using this syntax you can define any number of fields in you HTML form so following is the full code of a form which is going to be used to make this example.

Step 2

in 2nd step you need to make make a modal pop which will be displayed while it receive the response to show so following is the code to display bootstrap modal popup.

<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
   <div class="modal-dialog">
     <!-- Modal content-->
     <div class="modal-content">
     <div class="modal-header">
     <h5 class="modal-title" id="quoteModalLabel">Let's Discuss</h5>
      <button type="button" class="btn-close" data-bs-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"></button>
     </div>
     <div class="modal-body">
        <div id="mess"></div>
     </div>
     <div class="modal-footer">
     <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
     </div>
     </div>

    </div>
 </div>

as you can see in body section I have define a div with id="mess" which will be used to display the response message so following is the full body code .

<div class="modal-body">
  <div id="mess"></div>
</div>

Step 3

in 3rd step you need to create a js script where you can send form data to php file and after processing the date the modal popup can be displayed with response message. You need to call this script on button click event. In this script you need to use ajax() method to post the form data, You can define type:"POST" and url:"mail.php" in this script after that while receiving success response you need to use $("#myModal").modal("show"); in success function. so following is the full code of JS script.

<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
    $("#btnsubmit").click(function(){
        
           $.ajaxSetup({
           headers: {
               'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
           }
           });
    
           $('#mess').html('Please Wait...');
           $('#btnsubmit').html('Please Wait...');
           //$("#submitdetails"). attr("disabled", true);
 
              
           $.ajax({
           type:"POST",
           url:"mail.php",
           data: $('#submitform').serialize(),
           success: function(response)
           {
                
               $('#btnsubmit').html('Submit');
               $("#myModal").modal("show");
               $('#mess').html(response);
                
           }
    
           })
       //}
       });
     });
   
 </script>

                        </div>
                    </form>


                        <!-- Modal -->
                        <div id="myModal" class="modal fade" role="dialog">

    $(document).ready(function(){
    $("#btnsubmit").click(function(){
       
           $.ajaxSetup({
           headers: {

           $('#btnsubmit').html('Please Wait...');
           //$("#submitdetails"). attr("disabled", true);

             
           $.ajax({
           type:"POST",
           url:"mail.php",
           data: $('#submitform').serialize(),
           success: function(response)
           {
               
               $('#btnsubmit').html('Submit');
               $("#myModal").modal("show");
               $('#mess').html(response);
               
           }
   
           })
       //}
       });
     });
  
 </script>
</body>
</html>

In the above code in javascript code when the success function receive the response, the modal popup show the response message using $("#myModal").modal("show"); and $('#mess').html(response);

Mail File – mail.php

<?php

        $name=$_POST['name'];
        $email=$_POST['email'];
        $phone=$_POST['phone'];
        $location=$_POST['location'];
        $message=$_POST['message'];

        if(empty($name) || empty($email) || empty($phone) || empty($location) || empty($message))
        {
            echo "Please fill all the details !";
        }
        else
        {
        $to = "xyz@gmail.com"; // your mail here
        $email = $email;
        $body = "Name : ".$name."\n\nE-mail : ".$email."\n\nPhone : ".$phone."\n\nLocation : ".$location."\n\nMessage : ".$message;
        $subject="Form Details";
        $from="mail@tour.com";
        //mail headers are mandatory for sending email
        $headers = 'From: ' .$from . "\r\n".
