if(!preg_match($email_exp,$email)) {

 

$email is not defined.

 

 

The error you are getting with the first name has nothing to do with the first name. it is because of this:

 

  if(!preg_match($string_exp,$company_name)) {
    $error_message .= 'The First Name you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
  }

 

$company_name is not defined causing this validation to fail, but the error message states "first name"
