Hi,

New to php and this forum. I am having a hell of a time simply editing an existing php form mail script to display my own fields.

The form emails to me with all of the text portions intact, ex. "From:" but the field information doesn't come through at all.

 

I created my own .html file with the form inset - it's possible that this is where the problem occurs. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I've been banging my head against a wall for a few hours now.

 

the php:

<?php
##################################################
## Email sender by: Steve "Defender" Cunningham ##
##################################################
##												##
## Edit the proper variables to make the script ##
## work on your site.                           ##
##												##
##################################################
##												##
## If I'm not busy, you can email me at:        ##
## sc_99_99@yahoo.com and I can try to help     ##
## you with your problem.						##
##												##
##################################################
##												##
## Note that if the copyright info is deleted,  ##
## this script is no longer valid.              ##
##												##
##################################################

//Define some variables

$youremail="****@****.ca"; // This is the address that the information submitted will be sent to.

$emailsubject="Contact form info!"; // This will the email's subject

// The From field will be be where this email came from.
// Note on the from field. the text after the first " mark, until the < is what appears in "From" in your email program.
// So, you can put anything alpha numeric here. That would be any letters A-Z and a-z, as well as 0-9
$from_who="My Site's Contact Form <youremail@yoursite.com>";

$pagetitle="Thank You!"; // Title to be displayed on the sent info page.

// Enter the code that you want to appear before the information submitted.
// Make sure you put a / mark before all double quotation marks or the script won't work.
// the \n at the end of the line is to create a new line in the HTML SOURCE. It DOES NOT create a break or new line
// when viewing it on the internet. Put these at the end of each line in the header and footer if you wish.
// They aren't required.

$header = "<!-- Begin Header -->\n
<table>\n
<tr>\n
  <td bgcolor=\"000000\"><font color=\"FFFFFF\" size=\"2\" face=\"verdana\">\n
<!-- End Header -->\n";

// Enter the code you'd like displayed after the information submitted.
// Make sure you put a / mark before all double quotation marks or the script won't work.
// the \n at the end of the line is to create a new line in the HTML SOURCE. It DOES NOT create a break or new line
// when viewing it on the internet. Put these at the end of each line in the header and footer if you wish.
// They aren't required.

$footer = "<!-- Begin Footer -->\n
</td></tr></table>\n
<!-- End Footer -->\n";

// This code gets the ip address of the person submiting the form.
// You shouldn't remove it if you want to use this feature.
if (getenv(HTTP_CLIENT_IP)){ 
$user_ip=getenv(HTTP_CLIENT_IP); 
} 
else { 
$user_ip=getenv(REMOTE_ADDR); 
}

// If your server uses php version 4.2 or above, you can leave this section alone.

// Otherwise, add 2 slashes (//) to the beginning of the following 4 lines and delete the // in the section below.
