Hi guys just a quick question how do i send email from a form in codeigniter? I have searched and tried to get it right but it just keeps telling me that the page required could not be found?

Here is my view:

<div class="container">
<div class="row">
    <div class="container">
        <div class="page-header">

        </div>
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-md-6 pull-left" id="contact_form">

                    echo form_open("email/send");
                    echo form_label("Name: ", "fullName");
                    $data = array(
                        "name" => "fullName",
                        "id" => "fullName",
                        "value" => "",
                        "class" => "form-control"
                    );

                    echo "<br />";
                    echo form_label("Email: ", "email");

How should the email controller look like?

Please could you help me resolve this?

Hi, since you write:

echo form_open("email/send");

The receiving controller should look like:

<?php

class Email extends CI_Controller {

    public function send()
    {
        # code here
    }
}
