change this:

 <form id="contact-form" name="contactform" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" form action="html_form_send.php">

to this:

 <form id="contact-form" name="contactform" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="html_form_send.php">

Define "not working".

what is it doing that it shouldn't do?

what is it not doing that it should do?

Side note:

PHP provides a function for validating email addresses:

Define "not working".

what is it doing that it shouldn't do?

what is it not doing that it should do?

^^^ What he wrote.

You showed us a huge form with piles of css style.

You need to explain what your issue is.

QuickOldCar · November 20, 2013

I can confirm that your form part is fine and sends data.

If you are using the same php code as your first post, you never use email in your form therefore nothing else in your php script will work

if(isset($_POST['email'])) {

cyberRobot · November 20, 2013

@jasonk - When posting code, please surround it with

tags. It makes the post and code easier to read.

cyberRobot · November 20, 2013

Sorry, I just noticed that jasonk isn't the OP.

@jasonk - Please don't hijack someone else's thread. If you have a question, please start a new one.

@aelouch - Sorry about any confusion.

Ha, didn't even realize was a different person cyberrobot
