I want error or success messages to show on the contact.html page and not open a new browser tab.
Thank you advance for help restore my sanity.

You just need to prevent the default form submit from firing, which will post the content to the URL in your form action.
$('#contactform').submit(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
...
});

How do I fix the POST 405 error for an email form (PHP) hosted on http-server?

I am new to PHP and jQuery. I wanted to test the functionality for the email contact form in PHP that I call from my jQuery file. I have been filling in the details on the form correctly, however, whenever I press the "Submit" button, I get 405 error.
To be more precise, I get "POST http://192.168.87.1:8080/js/inc/contactformhandler.php 405 (Method Not Allowed)" from jquery-3.4.1.min.js:2. I am running my website on http-server !.
My HTML form:

</div>
<div class="form-field">

</div>
<div class="form-field">

I expect the website to display box saying Your message was sent, thank you! but I am getting Something went wrong with loader. Please try again.

You should use form in .php file not in .html file

I developed a contact form on my website but in this form it has a select unde the person will be able to choose a service but I have no idea how to insert this in my code I would like to know if it is possible.

Realize that in the image the only field that does not appear anything and that of the service

$('input[name=service]').val();
Service is not an input, its a select. change to
$('select[name="service"]').val()

select element doesn't have value, that's why you have to get value of selected option. So you get that value like this:
Edit
As Todilo noticed, you are trying to get element with input tag, while select element isn't input.
$('select[name="service"] option:selected').val();
Example
console.log($('select option:selected').val());
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select>
<option>Option 1</option>
<option selected>Option 2</option>
</select>

No need to use .val() and [] in name to get values of checkboxes in jquery
$("input[name='id']:checked");
to get selected values you can serialize them
console.log($('input[name='id']:checked').serialize());
or you can use each loop
$('input[name='id']:checked').each(function() {
console.log(this.value);
});
or if you want to paas them through ajax
just add it in variable like
var checked = $('input[name='id']:checked').serialize();
or if you want to push it's values in array
var checkboxValues = [];
$('input[name=id]:checked').map(function() {
checkboxValues.push($(this).val());
});

PHP contact form bug

I have a contact form using html and i also have a sendEmail.php file.
Everything works on the front end and notified that the email has been sent but it never seems to come to my inbox.
I can't identify why this is happening?
Help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Here is HTML
<div class="form-field">
<input name="contactName" type="text" id="contactName" placeholder="Name" value="" minlength="2" required="">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-six tab-full">
<div class="form-field">
<input name="contactEmail" type="email" id="contactEmail" placeholder="Email" value="" required="">
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-six tab-full">
<div class="form-field">
<input name="contactSubject" type="text" id="contactSubject" placeholder="Subject" value="">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-field">
<textarea name="contactMessage" id="contactMessage" placeholder="message" rows="10" cols="50" required=""></textarea>
</div>
<div class="form-field">
<button class="submitform">Submit</button>
<div id="submit-loader">
<div class="text-loader">Sending...</div>
<div class="s-loader">
<div class="bounce1"></div>
<div class="bounce2"></div>
<div class="bounce3"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</form>
<!-- contact-warning -->
<div id="message-warning"></div>
<!-- contact-success -->
<div id="message-success">
<i class="fa fa-check"></i>Your message was sent, thank you!<br>
</div>
Here is the sendEmail.php
$siteOwnersEmail = 'info#jalina-digital.co.uk';
if($_POST) {
$name = trim(stripslashes($_POST['contactName']));
$email = trim(stripslashes($_POST['contactEmail']));
$subject = trim(stripslashes($_POST['contactSubject']));
$contact_message = trim(stripslashes($_POST['contactMessage']));
// Check Name
if (strlen($name) < 2) {
$error['name'] = "Please enter your name.";
}
// Check Email
if (!preg_match('/^[a-z0-9&\'\.\-_\+]+#[a-z0-9\-]+\.([a-z0-9\-]+\.)*+[a-z]{2}/is', $email)) {
$error['email'] = "Please enter a valid email address.";
}
// Check Message
if (strlen($contact_message) < 15) {
$error['message'] = "Please enter your message. It should have at least 15 characters.";
}
// Subject
if ($subject == '') { $subject = "Contact Form Submission"; }
// Set Message
$message .= "Email from: " . $name . "<br />";
$message .= "Email address: " . $email . "<br />";
$message .= "Message: <br />";
$message .= $contact_message;
$message .= "<br /> ----- <br /> This email was sent from your site's contact form. <br />";
// Set From: header
$from = $name . " <" . $email . ">";
// Email Headers
$headers = "From: " . $from . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: ". $email . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
if (!$error) {
ini_set("sendmail_from", $siteOwnersEmail); // for windows server
$mail = mail($siteOwnersEmail, $subject, $message, $headers);
if ($mail) { echo "OK"; }
else { echo "Something went wrong. Please try again."; }
} # end if - no validation error
else {
$response = (isset($error['name'])) ? $error['name'] . "<br /> \n" : null;
$response .= (isset($error['email'])) ? $error['email'] . "<br /> \n" : null;
$response .= (isset($error['message'])) ? $error['message'] . "<br />" : null;
echo $response;
} # end if - there was a validation error
}
?>
And here is some JS.
var ssContactForm = function() {
/* local validation */
$('#contactForm').validate({
/* submit via ajax */
submitHandler: function(form) {
var sLoader = $('#submit-loader');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "inc/sendEmail.php",
data: $(form).serialize(),
beforeSend: function() {
sLoader.fadeIn();
},
success: function(msg) {
// Message was sent
if (msg == 'OK') {
sLoader.fadeOut();
$('#message-warning').hide();
$('#contactForm').fadeOut();
$('#message-success').fadeIn();
}
// There was an error
else {
sLoader.fadeOut();
$('#message-warning').html(msg);
$('#message-warning').fadeIn();
}
},
error: function() {
sLoader.fadeOut();
$('#message-warning').html("Something went wrong. Please try again.");
$('#message-warning').fadeIn();
}
});
}
});
};

The code you have written has some errors.
1) In your HTML form it show <button class="submitform">Submit</button> you must just a name to that input example <input type="submit" name="send" class="submitform">Submit</input>
2) In your PHP sendEmail file if($_POST) must become if(isset($_POST['send']))
Accordingly making these corrections will solve. Also Note Sending mail in PHP will not instant receive msg this may take some time.
