I have the following partial. I want it to send the form data to an email address. What happens is the URL is appended with '/?', no mail is sent.
I am finding it very difficult to find help on sending email. I am gradually piecing things together. But, I cannot find a single resource for instructions.
description = "Contact Page"

use Illuminate\Support\FacadesMail;
use System\Models\MailTemplate;
function onInfoRequest() {
$data = ['name'=>'test from function'];
echo 'TEST';
Mail::send(backend::mail.inforequest, $data, function($message) {
$message->to('fakeEmail@fakeURL.com', 'Roger Creasy');
});
}

I am still hacking away. Is there no one who can help?? I changed the PHP bit in the code section to this:
function onInfoRequest()
{
$data = ['name' => 'test from function'];
Mail::send(backend::mail . inforequest, $data, function ($message) {
$message->to('fake@hidden.com', 'Roger Creasy');
});
}
I now get an alert box with "AJAX handler 'onInfoRequest' not found. Anyone??

PROGRESS! I am posting this in case it helps someone else.
I found that the AJAX function had to be placed in the code section of the LAYOUT instead of the page or partial. Here is the code:
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;
public function onInfoRequest() {
$data = ['name' => 'test from function'];
Mail::send('mail.inforequest', $data, function ($message) {
$message->to('fake@hidden.com', 'Roger Creasy');
});
}
The current problem is that I get an alert box with an empty unnamed array (I am assuming). The alert is '[]' Any ideas of what is causing this?
