cyberRobot Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) Variable names are case sensitive. Try using $companyname The same goes for the other variables.

cyberRobot Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 The corresponding form filed is lower case: <input type="text" name="companyname"> The POST variable needs to match.

cyberRobot Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Is the error being display before or after the form is submitted? If it's before, $_POST isn't defined yet. To avoid error regarding an undefined variable, you could use isset(). http://php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/283649-variables-errors/#findComment-1457206 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberRobot Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 spanner206, can you please use the <code></code> tags like everybody else when posting code? Just to clarify, that should be tags. Surrounding your code with those tags makes the post much easier to follow.
