How To Create A Contact Form for Google Drive Hosted Website

Every website needs a contact page. Typically a contact page contains email, phone numbers and your address. A lot of people prefer to contact the website owner via email, they will click the email address link (mailto:admin@example.com) and it will automatically open an email client installed on their computer.

Webmail users will just copy and paste the email address from the contact page to their webmail. But what if for some reason they think that open and login to a webmail is a little bit troublesome, then we need to include a contact form because the contact form allowed visitor to give the website owner message right then and there.

A contact form is basically a set of questions filled out on the contact page by your visitor. The message automatically sent to the admin email when the visitor click the submit button. There are several ways to create a contact form for Google Drive hosted website:

Gweb.io
If you're using gweb.io service for your Google Drive hosted website, you can set up a contact form easily, just paste the contact form code below to your contact page:

<form action="/contact" method="post">
<p>Name

    <input name="contact[name]" type="text" size="30" required="true"/>
</p>
<p>Email
    <br />
    <input type="email" name="contact[email]" size="30" required="true"/>
