HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

How to add it

How to add a Dark Mode Contact Form to your site.

To add a Dark Mode Contact Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.

Define color tokens

Set --bg, --ink, --line, --accent in :root. These are your light-mode values.

Override for dark mode

Inside @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark), redefine the same tokens with dark-friendly values. Every color in your form references the tokens, so the whole thing flips.

(Optional) Add a manual toggle

If you want a manual override, add a `data-theme` attribute on `<html>` and additional CSS selectors. Most sites don't need this — system preference is enough.

What's included

What's in this Dark Mode Contact Form template?

OS-level dark mode is the standard in 2026 — every modern browser supports prefers-color-scheme and most visitors have a preference set. A contact form that respects that preference looks polished without any JavaScript or theme-toggle UI. The trick is using CSS custom properties for color tokens and a single @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) override. Native OS dark mode, no JS, no theme library.

  • Basic contact form — 4 ready-made fields
  • HTML, JS, React, PHP, and cURL outputs
  • One POST endpoint, no SDK — honeypot and classifier, no CAPTCHA

Questions

Dark Mode Contact Form questions.

View all FAQs
Will the dark version work in older browsers?

prefers-color-scheme has been supported since 2018 (Chrome 76, Firefox 67, Safari 12.1). Older browsers see the light theme — which is the safe fallback.

How do I support both system preference AND a manual toggle?

Use a `data-theme="dark"` attribute on `<html>` and write `[data-theme="dark"]` selectors. Default to system preference, override on user action. Persist the choice in localStorage.

Does Tailwind support this pattern?

Yes — Tailwind ships a `dark:` variant. Either base it on system preference (`darkMode: 'media'` in config) or on a class (`darkMode: 'class'`). Both work with splitforms.

What about accessibility for low-contrast issues?

Hit WCAG AA on both themes — at least 4.5:1 for body text, 3:1 for large text. Use a contrast checker on every color combination. Dark mode is where most accessibility bugs hide because designers test light-mode first.
