Help with snippet having html and php

I wonder if anyone can help me with a form I have on my site. I moved it over to Modx but I’m not sure how to code it.
The code is:

<?php if(isset($hasError)) { //If errors are found ?>
<p class="error">Please fill in properly the fields below. Thanks</p>
<?php } ?>

<?php if(isset($emailSent) && $emailSent == true) { //If email is sent ?>
<p class="success"><strong>Successfully Sent!</strong></p>
<p class="success">Thank you <strong><?php echo $name;?></strong> for contacting me! Your email was successfully sent and we will get back to you as soon as possible.</p>
<?php } ?>

Basically when you submit the form it will give you an error if all fields are not full. Or a successfully sent if they fill in all the info. But this will show up right on the current page. I know with snippets you can have html so I not so good with my php and I would like a little assistance.

Thanks

In MODx, you have to put the PHP code in a snippet. MODx will print whatever the snippet returns, so you have to do it something like this:

This goes on the form page:



This goes in the MailForm snippet:



If you’re looking for a simple contact form, you might check out the SPForm snippet. For more complicated forms, look at the eForm snippet.
