I know most of you use Dreamweaver so this is a problem with the PHP in Dreamweaver: HELP !!! I created a web site http://www.terri-lizardlady.com and everything works great of FireFox. Go to IE and the drop down does not work at all. :wtf:Grrrr! I even started a new site and just put in the spry drop down that they had & it still wouldn't work. The major problem is that the person who owns the site is leaving for a big reptile show in Tinley Park, IL (TOMORROW MORNING AT 05:00) and wants to hand out her cards but the site isn't working. Here is the code on the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css: /* The outermost container of the Menu Bar, an auto width box with no margin or padding */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal { /* new addition */ text-align:center; /* original */ margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-size: 100%; cursor: default; width: auto; } /* Set the active Menu Bar with this class, currently setting z-index to accomodate IE rendering bug: http://therealcrisp.xs4all.nl/meuk/IE-zindexbug.html */ ul.MenuBarActive { z-index: 1000; } /* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal li { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-size: 100%; position: relative; text-align: center; /* original - left */ cursor: pointer; width: 8em; float: left; } /* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul { /* new addition */ text-align:center; font-weight:bold; /* original */ margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-size: 100%; z-index: 1020; cursor: default; width: 7em; /* original - 8.2em */ position: absolute; left: -1000em; } /* New coded added because of problems with IE by Abraham Chaffin on http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/191/857886#866279*/ ul.MenuBarHorizontal li ul li{ clear: left; } /* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible { left: 25; /* original - auto */ } /* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li { width: 14em; /* original - 8.2em */ } /* Submenus should appear slightly overlapping to the right (95%) and up (-5%) */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul { position: absolute; margin: -5% 0 0 95%; } /* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to 0 so it comes onto the screen */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible { left: auto; top: 0; } /******************************************************************************* DESIGN INFORMATION: describes color scheme, borders, fonts *******************************************************************************/ /* Submenu containers have borders on all sides */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul { border: 0px solid black;

I'm a newbie & this is going to take me a month of Sundays to figure out. However, I will go back to that link and figure out what I did wrong. Let me tell you that I really appreciate the time & effort that you people take to help us newbies! Maybe one day I too will be able to give back.

This is what I have for the form (in short version) along with the text area and submit button. The form shows up OK on the Internet http://www.lakegenevapieco.com/test_product_list.php The problem is when I fill it out & submit it doesn't do two things: 1) It doesn't E-Mail me the information 2) It doesn't say, Thank you for using our mail form. It actually says page not available. Here is the code: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us"> <title>Products to be listed on the web site for the month of</title> </head> <body> Products to be listed on the web site for the month of <select size="1" name="MONTH"> <option selected>PICK MONTH</option> <option>1-JANUARY</option> <option>2-FEBUARY</option> <option>3-MARCH</option> <option>4-APRIL</option> <option>5-MAY</option> <option>6-JUNE</option> <option>7-JULY</option> <option>8-AUGUST</option> <option>9-SEPTEMBER</option> <option>10-OCTOBER</option> <option>11-NOVEMBER</option> <option>12-DECEMBER</option> </select> <select size="1" name="YEAR"> <option selected>PICK YEAR</option> <option>2010</option> <option>2011</option> <option>2012</option> <option>2013</option> <option>2014</option> <option>2015</option> </select></p> <p><input type="checkbox" name="PumpkinSB" value="ON"> Pumpkin Price increase to <input type="text" name="PriceIncreaseTo151" size="20" value="$"></p> <p><input type="checkbox" name="PumpkinWalnutSB" value="ON"> Pumpkin Walnut Price increase to <input type="text" name="PriceIncreaseTo152" size="20" value="$"></p> <p><input type="checkbox" name="RaspberrySB" value="ON"> Raspberry Price increase to <input type="text" name="PriceIncreaseTo153" size="20" value="$"></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> <?php function spamcheck($field) { //filter_var() sanitizes the e-mail //address using FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL $field=filter_var($field, FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL); //filter_var() validates the e-mail //address using FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL if(filter_var($field, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) { return TRUE; } else { return FALSE; } } if (isset($_REQUEST['email'])) {//if "email" is filled out, proceed //check if the email address is invalid $mailcheck = spamcheck($_REQUEST['email']); if ($mailcheck==FALSE) { echo "Invalid input"; } else {//send email $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; $subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ; $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ; mail("myemail@mia.net", "Subject: $subject", $message, "From: $email" ); echo "Thank you for using our mail form"; } } else {//if "email" is not filled out, display the form echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'> Email: <input name='email' type='text' /><br /> Subject: <input name='subject' type='text' /><br /> Message:<br /> <textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'> </textarea><br /> <input type='submit' /> </form>"; } ?> </p> </form> </body> </html>

Thank you! Will check it out now!

Once you have a form compleated by the on line client how do you get the finished form sent to your E-Mail address? I know it has to have something to do with the submit button but being a newbie at this PHP I'm not quite sure. Right now I have this long form all in HTML www.lakegenevapieco.com/product_list.htm Yeah, I know... it was originally done in the infamous Front Page software. It will probably need to be compleatly rewritten but that's where I need the advice. By the way I know what this is but what is this one ?
