Answer: 
You should be using `id` as a unique identifier instead of `name`.

Is there a particular reason that you need to set the name though? You can just remove the name declaration unless there's a reason for it.
Use ID.

```
<form action="mail.php" class="contactForm" id="cform" method="post">

```
