edwind Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi, This is driving me to distraction. I have been using this code <?php $mailto = "edwin@btconnect.com"; $subject = "enquiry"; $message = "Values submitted from web site form:"; $header = "From: ".$_POST['email']; foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) { if (!is_array($value)) { $message .= "\n".$key." : ".$value; } else { foreach ($_POST[$key] as $itemvalue) { $message .= "\n".$key." : ".$itemvalue; } } } mail($mailto, $subject, stripslashes($message), $header); ?> very successfully but now I want to receive information from a 'textarea' in a form but it just doesn't get treated as input. The form is here; <form name="enquiry" method="post" action="feedback.php"> <tr> <td align="left">Name:</td> <td align="right"><input type="text" name="name" size="25" value=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left">email:</td> <td align="right"><input type="text" name="email" size="25" value=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top">Blurb:</td> <td align="right"><textarea rows="4" cols="19" value=""></textarea></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2" align="right"> <input name="submit" type="image" src="report.gif" width="40" height="20" border="0"> </td></tr></form> Can anyone please help? edwind Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/236796-how-to-send-textarea-as-input/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 You would need to specify a name="..." attribute in your <textarea > tag. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/236796-how-to-send-textarea-as-input/#findComment-1217270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
