BRILLIANT!!! YOU ARE A GENIUS!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!

I got this error: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html. in D:\Hosting\html\mailer.php on line 56 mail not sent I had that one before, something about Bare LF's?

OK.... I just got an email with the suject "test" and message "test".... why did this work? ???

it says "mail sent"

I am using godaddy.com... I am pretty sure I dont have access to the php.ini file So the server is fine with me manually putting and email address in but it doesn't like me getting the address from a database?

I get: array(5) { ["email"]=> string(11) "[email protected]" ["mesg"]=> string(4) "test" ["subject"]=> string(48) "Information regarding part # TEST" ["rowemail"]=> string(2) "44" ["submit"]=> string(4) "Send" }

oooh.... ok I missed that... I changed the second email on the form and processor and it is still giving me the same error

ok.. it gives me this: [email protected] Results from Contact form Results from form: email: 44 mesg: test subject: Information regarding # TEST submit: Send From: [email protected]

i can be confusing at times so I will just post the code for the form too... <div align="center"><b>CONTACT</b></div> <form name="contact_user2" method="POST" action="mailer.php"> <div align="left"> <b>Email</b> (enter your email address)<br> <input name="email" type="text" size="30" maxlength="40"><br> <b>Message</b><br> <textarea name="mesg" cols="30" rows="5" maxlength="250"></textarea><br> </div> <?php include("./config.inc.php"); $row = $_POST['row']; // get email from row number $query = "SELECT field_1,field_7 FROM `".$db_table."` WHERE '$row' = id"; $result = mysql_query($query); $email = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); ?> <input name="subject" type="hidden" value="Information regarding part # <?php echo $email['field_1']; ?>"> <input name="email" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $row; ?>"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send" /> </form>

I have a database search that displays the results with a contact button. The contact button is a mini form with hidden field that sends the row id to the next form where the user enters their email address and message. The hidden row id field on that form is named 'email'

Hi, I tested my form mailer using a "fixed" email address to make sure it works, which it did. Then I changed the "fixed" email address to a database query that gets the email address associated with the row id posted from a previous form- and I get the following error: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 503 RCPT first (#5.5.1) in D:\Hosting\3709681\html\mailer.php on line 49. I echoed the results of the email address query and it is returning the correct email address, so I believe the problem is with the "$emailadd = $email['field_7'];" part. what am I doing wrong here? p.s. I know I can have the row id translated to an email address in the form, but it can be seen when you view the source code. <?php // connect to database include("./config.inc.php"); $row = $_POST['email']; // get email address from row number $query = "SELECT field_1,field_7 FROM `".$db_table."` WHERE '$row' = id"; $result = mysql_query($query); $email = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); //--------------------------Set paramaters-------------------------- // Subject of email sent to you. $subject = 'Results from Contact form'; // Your email address. This is where the form information will be sent. $emailadd = $email['field_7']; // Where to redirect after form is processed. $url = ''; // Makes all fields required. If set to '1' no field can not be empty. If set to '0' any or all fields can be empty. $req = '0'; // --------------------------End set parameters-------------------------- $text = "Results from form:\n\n"; $space = ' '; $line = ' '; foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) { if ($req == '1') { if ($value == '') {echo "$key is empty";die;} } $j = strlen($key); if ($j >= 20) {echo "Name of form element $key cannot be longer than 20 characters";die;} $j = 20 - $j; for ($i = 1; $i <= $j; $i++) {$space .= ' ';} $value = str_replace('\n', "$line", $value); $conc = "{$key}:$space{$value}$line"; $text .= $conc; $space = ' '; } mail($emailadd, $subject, $text, 'From: '.$emailadd.''); echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">'; ?>

thanks for your help! hopefully it will work..it is going to take me a while to get this right I am very slow

@redarrow: thanks, I missed that @sudden: so I should put the <form action="_gdForm/webformmailer.asp" method="post"> on the other page (my form) and then combine the above code with the form and skip the second page for validating and replacing the email address?

Hi, I have a form that posts to a php file to 1) validate the user inputs and 2) get the email address associated with the row id to hide the email address from "view source". I am trying to send the form and I get the error "Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "relay-hosting.secureserver.net" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in D:\Host\27076321\html\processor_contact_user.php on line 20 Thank You, Your email as been sent " I looked at the godaddy help page (http://help.godaddy.com/article/512#webformmailer) and they say I need to use this <form action="_gdForm/webformmailer.asp" method="post"> on my form page... but then I would not be able to get the email address (I think?) I am new to mailing forms so I will post my code and shut up <?php include("./config.inc.php"); $row = $_POST['row']; // makes sure there are no blank fields if (!$_POST['from'] | !$_POST['message']) { die('You did not complete all of the required fields. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form'); } // make sure email address is valid if (!preg_match('/^[a-z0-9._-]+[a-z0-9._-]+@[a-z0-9]+[a-z0-9.-]+[a-z0-9]+.[a-z]{2,4}$/i', $_POST['from'])){ die('Invalid email address. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form '); } // get email address from row number (field_7 is the email) $query = "SELECT field_7 FROM `".$db_table."` WHERE '$row' = id"; $result = mysql_query($query); if ($row = $result){ mail($row['field_7'], $_POST['subject'], $_POST['message'], "From: ".$_POST['from']); echo "Thank You, Your email as been sent"; }else{ echo "Error: Invlid User ID"; } ?>

oops...that wouldn'be good thank you for spotting that

aside from the errors, do you think the setup would work? Or is their an easier/more plausible way to do this? ???

Hi, I have a searchable database that contains a field with an email address among other things and was wondering if it is possible to display a small form along with each result which the user can email the person without seeing the email address. Here is the code that I was "brainstorming" with: (I commented the important section so you don't have to read the whole code) <?php include("./config.inc.php"); $var = @$_GET['input'] ; if (ereg("^[A-z0-9]*$",$var)) $trimmed = trim($var); $limit=10; if ($trimmed == "") { echo "<p>Invalid Search: Please make sure you are only using letters and numbers. The use of spaces, dashes and special characters is not permitted</p>"; exit; } if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } $query = "select * from `".$db_table."` where field_1 like \"$trimmed\" order by field_1"; $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); if ($numrows == 0) { echo """ . $trimmed . "" was not found"; } if (empty($s)) { $s=0; } $query .= " limit $s,$limit"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Couldn't execute query"); while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { { echo "<b>part number: </b>" . $row['field_1'] . "<br /> <b>manufacturer: </b>" . $row['field_2'] . "<br /> <b>qty available: </b>" . $row['field_3'] . "<br /> <b>description: </b>" . $row['field_4'] . "<br /> <b>price: $</b>" . $row['field_5'] . "<br /><br />" // here is where I think the form would go but I know I am wrong. field_7 is the one that contains the email address echo "<form name="contact" method="POST" action="search1.php"> <input type="hidden" name="email" value= .$row['field_7'].> Your Email: <input type="text" name="from"><br> Subject: <input type="text" name="subject"><br> Message: <textarea name="message"></textarea><input type="submit" value="send"> </form>"; } mail($row['field_7'], $_POST['subject'], $_POST['message'], "From: ".$_POST['from']); echo "Your email has been sent"; } ?> Let me know if this is completely the wrong way to go about this. Thanks

that did the trick...I don't understand how, but it worked

It is displaying the error "Invalid phone number. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form" when nothing is entered instead of ignoring it and moving on to the next validation

I tried this one: if (isset($_POST['field_6'])) { (!preg_match('/^.?[0-9]{3}.?.?[0-9]{3}.?[0-9]{4}$/i', $_POST['field_6'])){ die('Invalid phone number. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form '); } but I am getting this error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in D:\Host\processor.php on line 19 to make it easier I can figure out preg_match(... stuff, I just need to figure out how to make it ignore the validation if nothing is entered into the input, but validate it if they do enter a phone number. thanks

Hi, I am trying to do a server side form validation for a phone number that is not a required field, but if they choose to enter the field I want it to be a validated phone number. I have tried about 50 different versions switching the variables any way I new how but I can't seem to get it to work. I know it is something simple but I can't get it to work. // make sure phone number is valid if (!$_POST['field_6']) { } else (!preg_match('/^.?[0-9]{3}.?.?[0-9]{3}.?[0-9]{4}$/i', $_POST['field_6'])){ die('Invalid phone number. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form '); } Any suggestions?

Perfect!!! Thank you so much

Hi...again, I know this is probably really easy but... I am trying to validate my form and cannot figure out how to make sure field_1 is only alphanumeric. This is what I have attempted so far (please don't laugh) $alnum = !ereg("^[A-z0-9]*$"); // make sure both email addresses match if ($_POST['field_7'] != $_POST['field_8']) { die('The email addresses you entered do not match. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form '); } // make sure userid is alphanumeric if ($_POST[$alnum . 'field_1']) { die('User ID should not contain any spaces or special characters. Please use your browsers back button to go back to the form '); }

OMG I tried that..I was just putting it outside the "'s Thank you!!!

Hi, my results page displays "This user has been locatedUserid: BlahBlahfName: BlahBlahlName: BlahBlah" instead of: This user has been located Userid: BlahBlah fName: BlahBlah lName: BlahBlah How do I fix the code to make this formatting change? while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { { echo " This user has been located"; echo "<b>Userid: </b>" . $row['field_1']; echo "<b>fName: </b>" . $row['field_2']; echo "<b>lName: </b>" . $row['field_3']; } Thanks in advance
