[SOLVED] Contact Form Producing Errors

[stublackett]

Help.......

 

I've got a PHP Contact Form and the message that the end user receieves is full of Errors

 

Its saying this :

 

The following was sent on 01/09/08(Mon) @ 14:15 from IP ...BLANKED OUT...

---------------------------------------------------------

Name : <br />

<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined variable: name in <b>\\nas31ent\domains\s\sunningdale-hotel.com\user\htdocs\contact.php</b> on line <b>105</b><br />

 

E-mail : <br />

<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined variable: e_mail in <b>\\nas31ent\domains\s\sunningdale-hotel.com\user\htdocs\contact.php</b> on line <b>106</b><br />

 

Telephone : <br />

<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined variable: tel in <b>\\nas31ent\domains\s\sunningdale-hotel.com\user\htdocs\contact.php</b> on line <b>107</b><br />

 

The code for the form is :

 

<?php

ini_set("sendmail_from", "enquiries@sunningdale-hotel.com");

$post_message = "0"; 

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{
$post_message = "1";

$name = $_POST['name'];
$e_mail = $_POST['e_mail'];
$tel = $_POST['tel'];
$enquiry = $_POST['enquiry'];

//	$host_email = "user@user.com"; // Hidden for posting purposes
$host_email = "user@user.com"; //Again hidden for posting purposes
$email = "user@user.com"; // Same as above
$subject = "The Sunningdale-hotel.com Enquiry";
$TimeOfMessage = date('d')."/".date('m')."/".date('y')."(".date('D').") @ ".date('H:i');
$ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];

$message = "The following was sent on " .$TimeOfMessage." from IP " .$ip. "\n";
    $message .= "---------------------------------------------------------\n";
    $message .= "Name : " .$name. "\n";
$message .= "E-mail : " .$e_mail. "\n";
$message .= "Telephone : " .$tel. "\n";
$message .= "Enquiry : " .$enquiry. "\n";

mail($host_email, $subject, $message, "From: $name <$e_mail>");

}
?>

Try reading the error

 

Notice:  Undefined variable: tel in \\nas31ent\domains\s\sunningdale-hotel.com\user\htdocs\contact.php on line 107

 

What does it mean??

The var is undefined, it doesnt exist.

 

Show the code for the form.

My suspicions are with the form itself, Yeah

 

The variables are being set by the $_POST so the error should not be occuring, Like you say there is something in the form, If you can see what it is, Much appreciated

 

<form name="signup" action="contact.php" method="POST">

<?php echo $name; ?>

<?php echo $e_mail; ?>

<?php echo $tel ; ?>

 

These are not defined

 

Without really looking just do

 

<?php echo isset($name); ?>

<?php echo isset($e_mail); ?>

<?php echo isset($tel); ?>

[stublackett]

Those issets' have come through as

 

1 1 1

 

Does the form really need those HIDDEN fields?

[PFMaBiSmAd]

You have three hidden form fields with the same name as the normal form fields. The last field present with any name is the value that is sent.

 

Why do you have those hidden fields in the form?

[DeanWhitehouse]

oops, needed a bit more but no there not neaded , try this

 

 

<td class="labelcell">Name:</td>

<td class="fieldcell"><input name="name" id="name" type="text" tabindex="1" value="<?php if(isset($_POST['name'])){echo $_POST['name'];}" /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="labelcell">E-mail:</td>

<td class="fieldcell"><input name="e_mail" id="e_mail" type="text" tabindex="2" value="<?php if(isset($_POST['e_mail'])){echo $_POST['e_mail'];}"  /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="labelcell">Telephone:</td>
