csacton Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Hi there, I've built a form that should generate an e-mail, but it's not working properly. At first the page wouldn't display at all due to a problem with the EOD tags, that's fixed and I can now see a page, but when I type something in and hit submit, it's just not doing what it's supposed to do. Like I said it's supposed to e-mail me the data and leave the form filled with the data just submitted; it's doing neither. It is however posting the info into the address bar, so something is happening at least. here's a link to the page: http://www.remembertheprojector.com/php/testform.php here's the code: <?php if ($_POST['parse_var'] == "testform"){ $emailtitle = 'New E-mail'; $youremail = 'junk@remembertheprojector.com'; $namefield = $_POST['name']; $emailfield = $_POST['email']; $messagefield = $_POST['message']; $body = <<<EOD <br><hr><br> Name: $namefield <br /> Email: $emailfield <br /> Message: $messagefield <br /> EOD; $headers = "From: $emailfield\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n"; $success = mail("$youremail", "$emailtitle", "$body", "$headers"); $sent = "Thank you!"; } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html lang="EN" dir="ltr" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/xml; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Contact Form</title> </head> <body> <table width="400" border="1" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tr> <td align="center">Contact me? <br /> <br /> <form id="contactform" name="contactform" methord="post" action="testform.php"> <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Name:</td> <td width="75%"> <label for="name"></lable> <input type="text" name="name" id="name" maxlength="30" size="30" value="<?php print "$namefield"; ?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Email:</td> <td width="75%"> <label for="email"></lable> <input type="text" name="email" id="email" maxlength="50" size="50" value="<?php print "$emailfield"; ?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Message:</td> <td width="75%"> <label for="message"></lable> <textarea name="message" id="message" cols="40" rows="5"><?php print "$messagefield"; ?></textarea> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="25%"></td> <td width="75%" align="right"> <input type="reset" name="reset" id="reset" value="reset" /> <input type="hidden" name="parse_var" id="parse_var" value="testform" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="submit" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%"><?php print "$sent"; ?></td> </tr> </table> </form> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Also attached is a screen shot of the php so you can see how it's tabbed. Thanks for any help. Edited November 6, 2014 by csacton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
