contact form - output to page and email

[Omzy]

I have the following in my controller:

 

$message['name'] = htmlentities(strip_tags(trim($_POST['name'])));

$message['email'] = htmlentities(strip_tags(trim($_POST['email'])));

$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Website Enquiry";
$content = html_entity_decode(implode("\n\n", $message));
$content.= "\n\nIP Address: ".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$headers = "From: ".strip_tags(trim($_POST['name']))." <".strip_tags(trim($_POST['email'])).">";
@mail($to,$subject,$content,$headers);

 

And the following in my view:

 

echo '<tr><th><b>Name: </b></th><td>'.$message['name'].'</td></tr>';

echo '<tr><th><b>Email Address: </b></th><td>'.$message['email'].'</td></tr>';

 

This works as expected - the POST data is output to the page and is also sent in the email. However the email does not contain the field labels, for example 'Name: ' and 'Email Address: '.

 

This is obviously because I don't include the labels in their respective $message[] elements, as I need to enclose these in HTML tags in the view. I don't intend to include any HTML code in my controller, so does anyone have  any idea how I can satisfy both requirements?

$content.= "\n Name: ".$message['name'];

$content .= "\n Email: ".$message['email'];

Cheers teamatomic.

 

Seems good but I'd rather not do it that way to be honest, the code I provided was a simplified version - my full code has around 15-20 fields and not all are mandatory. So I've got several isset() checks to set the $message elements - these checks would have to be replicated for my $content variable if I use the method you have suggested...

Ideally I'd like to specify the labels in my controller and be able to output these in my view.

push them to an array

ie. $array[[email protected]]

 

then do your content with a foreach

$content.= "\n$key: $value";
