Hello, As mainly a designer w/ HTML and JS php is usually just an end of site add on to process forms and I LOVE php!
I've been away from PHP coding for about a month and I can't figure out what I'm forgetting here is partial of the form, the php handler, and the final email I get. If you see some syntax I'm botching let me know please. <form action="../php/dc_rif_handler.php" method="post"> <select name="title"> <option selected>Title...</option> <option>Mr.</option> <option>Ms.</option> <option>Mrs.</option> </select> </td></tr> <tr><td align="right"><font color="330000"><b>*First Name:</td> <td><input type="text" name="fname" size="48"></td></tr> <tr><td align="right"><font color="330000"><b>*Last Name:</td> <td><input type="text" name="lname" size="48"></td></tr> <tr><td align="right"><font color="330000"><b>*Mailing Address:</td> <td><input type="text" name="m_address" size="48"></td></tr> <tr><td align="right"><font color="330000"><b>*City, State, Zip:</td> <td><input type="text" name="city_state_zip" size="48"></td></tr> ...... THE PHP HANDLER... Your form has been proccessed and sent to ... <?php $to = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ; $subject = "A Dale Commons web site visitor is requesting information!"; $message_raw = "My name is $fname, $lname \r$r1a, $r2a, $r3a\r$r1b\rhere is my contact information:\r$title, $fname, $lname, \r$m_address,\r$city_state_zip,\rPhone Number: $phone\rFax: $fax\rThe best time to call is $time_to_call\rMy email address is $e_address"; $message_stripped = stripslashes($message_raw); mail ($to, $subject, $message_stripped, "From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" ); ?> AND FINALLY THE SENSELESS EMAIL I GET AT THE END... My name is , , , I am looking for a loved one. here is my contact information: , , , , , Phone Number: Fax: The best time to call is My email address is ...... What in the world? Did I forget everything PHP taught me? What the heck are those weird commas from and I could swear a form element named "xname" is called in php via $xname ??? Please let me know what you see, -Marcus PS, I just ran phpinfo(); on my server and it looks like all the others that work. -- Marcus James Christian UNLIMITED Multimedia Internet Design http://mjchristianunlimited.com Proudly presents the music of CHROMATICUS at http://www.mp3.com/chromaticus and http://chromaticus.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
