I have a simple contact form I'm trying to implement but I'm getting an "incorrect function" error when I try to launch it. My code below is as follows, and when I click submit, it redirects to
but with the text "Incorrect function" and that's it. My debug on firefox shows the following error:
POST http://www.mywebsite.com/v/vspfiles/contactform/contactme.php [HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed 33ms]
13:54:52.368 The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared. The document will render with garbled text in some browser configurations if the document contains characters from outside the US-ASCII range.
The character encoding of the page must be declared in the document or in the transfer protocol.
I am using volusion software if that helps. But I have no idea if the error is in my code or because my webhost won't allow the function. Can someone give me some insight? I have tried the "contactme.php" page with and without the doctype declared. My two files are below. I do not have an "error.htm" page.
contact.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Contact</title>

<body >
<div id="contact-area">
<form method="post" action="/v/vspfiles/contactform/contactme.php">
