can you expand on "aint working"? are you seeing errors? what ain't working?

[irishpeck]

Well  i can explain exactly whats happening i need help changing it is all.

 

Ok so basically the mail.php form is built to send a contact form that is made up of Name, Email and Message and when this delivers the message to my mailbox it works.

 

The Book A Table form has a number of components i.e Party Size (how many people to book in), Date (has a calendar attached), Meal Type (dropdown menu with 4 options), Time, Name, Email and Notes. Now the problem is i need everything the person enters on this form to be delivered in a mail but because im using mail.php its only sending the name, email and notes section. I need help to code it so that when the person fills in the book a  table form it sends all information requested i.e Party Size, Date etc.

The reason it's not working for your other form is because your PHP form parsing file is only reading the form fields: email, message, and name. If you wanted to include other form fields you would have to grab the POST variables individually for the form-- or if you wanted it to be dynamic for whatever form you submit to it you could do a foreach loop for your $_POST array.

Can you please help me with this sweeb im really stuck! php is not my strongest asset by any means lol

[sweeb]

Try this. On the line that says:

$message = isset($_POST['message']) ? trim($_POST['message']) : '';

 

change that to

$message = 0;
foreach ($_POST as $key=>$val){
     $message .= trim($key).": ".trim($val)"\n";
}

 

This reads in all POST variables and displays them in the email body.. The simplest fix but it may not look pretty
