Scripting-text error

NickG21 · December 15, 2006

All im looking to do is implement the php after the submit button has been clicked but when i initially load the site the error message is already displayed and all of the font is in the error text. here is the code:

<?php
$message = "";
$CompName = "";
$name = "";
$email = "";
$domain = "";
$text = "basictext";

if ($_POST['process'] == 1) {
$pattern = '/.*@.*\..*/';
$email = $_POST['YourEmailAddress'];
$urlname = urlencode($$_POST['YourName']);

if (preg_match($pattern, $_POST['YourEmailAddress']) > 0) {
// Here's where you would store
// the data in a database...
header(
"location: thanks.html?&username=$urlname");
}
$message = "Please enter a valid email address.";
$username = $_POST['name'];
$text = "errortext";
}
?>

in your form, put an hidden field called "formsubmit" and set it's value to 1

<input type="hidden" name="formsubmit" value="1">

then use this code instead of the one you're using

[code]
<?php
if($formsubmit==1)
{
$message = "";
$CompName = "";
$name = "";
$email = "";
$domain = "";
$text = "basictext";

if ($_POST['process'] == 1) {
$pattern = '/.*@.*\..*/';
$email = $_POST['YourEmailAddress'];
$urlname = urlencode($$_POST['YourName']);

if (preg_match($pattern, $_POST['YourEmailAddress']) > 0) {
// Here's where you would store
// the data in a database...
header(
"location: thanks.html?&username=$urlname");
}
$message = "Please enter a valid email address.";
$username = $_POST['name'];
$text = "errortext";
}
}
?>
[/code]

That work initially but when i reload it it, does the same thing

then set $formsubmit to =0 after the PHP code is executed, like this:

[code]
<?php
if($formsubmit==1)
{
$message = "";
$CompName = "";
$name = "";
$email = "";
$domain = "";
$text = "basictext";

if ($_POST['process'] == 1) {
$pattern = '/.*@.*\..*/';
$email = $_POST['YourEmailAddress'];
$urlname = urlencode($$_POST['YourName']);

if (preg_match($pattern, $_POST['YourEmailAddress']) > 0) {
// Here's where you would store
// the data in a database...
header(
"location: thanks.html?&username=$urlname");
}
$message = "Please enter a valid email address.";
$username = $_POST['name'];
$text = "errortext";
}
}
$formsubmit=0;
?>
[/code]

When i implement that code initially the site loads alright, with a lot of issues in the layout, but without the error codes already present. Is there any certain reason that the tables don't display correctly when i first open the site? Sorry for the trouble
