wolocaw Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Help! I'm stuck! This is the feedback form file I made. <html> <head><title>Bob's Auto Parts - Customer Feedback</title></head> <body> <h1>Customer Feedback</h1> <p>Please tell us what you think.</p> <form action="processfeedback.php" method="post"> <p>Your name:<br/> <input type="text" name="name" size="40" /></p> <p>Your email address:<br/> <input type="text" name="email" size="40" /></p> <p>Your feedback:<br/> <textarea name="feedback" rows="8" cols="40" wrap="virtual" /></textarea></p> <p><input type="submit" value="Send feedback" /></p> </form> </body> </html> And this is the process feedback file I made. <?php //create short variable names $name = trim($_POST['name']); $email = trim($_POST['email']); $feedback = trim($_POST['feedback']); //set up some static information $toaddress = "wolocaw@localhost"; $subject = "Feedback from web site"; $mailcontent = "Customer name: ".$name."\n". "Customer email: ".$email."\n". "Customer comments:\n".$feedback."\n"; $fromaddress = "From: [email protected]"; //invoke mail() function to send mail mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent, $fromaddress); ?> <html> <head> <title>Bob's Auto Parts - Feedback Submitted</title> </head> <body> <h1>Feedback submitted</h1> <p>Your feedback (shown below) has been sent.</p> <p><?php echo nl2br($mailcontent); ?> </p> </body> </html> After I fill out the form, it brings me to a page that says "Feedback submitted" at the top and "Your feedback (shown below) has been sent." below it. And that's it. nl2br($mailcontent) doesn't do anything. What am I doing wrong? I don't understand!

WebStyles Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 That script works fine (just tested on my server). Maybe it's an smtp problem? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261934-customer-feedback-form/#findComment-1342188 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolocaw Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Oh. Haha. I am such a newbie. Instead of using the form by typing in localhost/file location into the browser, I was using it by double clicking the html file. Thanks for looking over my code though! This site is awesome. I'll be back for sure! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261934-customer-feedback-form/#findComment-1342198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
