Contact Us Page

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

I'm having problems getting my contact us page to work correctly, and keep chasing errors around in the script, probably because I don't really know what I'm doing. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The coding is very sloppy, looks like multiple third party scripts. I would throw away anything not needed, and have someone (a friend or something), recode the form and processor, make it valid and look cleaner (it would even run faster, and fix your problems at the same time)

redbullmarky · January 11, 2007

dude, telling someone to get someone else to write it isnt gonna help too much ;)

what i'd suggest though, MSwanson - if you're getting any specific errors, try and post just the error and the code around it - that's a hell of alot of code to look through :)

cheers

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

The error I'm getting right now is:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\contact-us.php on line 107

Which puts us here:

<code>

$name=$HTTP_POST_VARS['first_name'];
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
$toaddress='info@foxvalleycheesecake.com'; // EMAIL TO INFO
$fromaddress='info@foxvalleycheesecake.com';
$replyaddress=$HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
$subject='Contact from '$HTTP_POST_VARS['first_name']' '$HTTP_POST_VARS['last_name'];

</code>

I did realize that the script is messy, but a friend kind of dumped this project in my lap (since they lost their programmer) and I'm a little over my head.

On a related not, I can't seem to get the code tags to work to enclose my code when I post in the forum...I must be doin something wrong...and if I can't figure out how to post in the forum, no wonder I can't make the script work. ???

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

As for rewritting the script I'd love to, but don't know anyone that wants/can do it and have a non-exsistant budget to make that (and a couple other changes happen)...any volunteers? ;D

Daniel0 · January 11, 2007

The line that does the problems is [code]$subject='Contact from '$HTTP_POST_VARS['first_name']' '$HTTP_POST_VARS['last_name'];[/code]
Change it to: [code]$subject = "Contact from {$_POST['first_name']} {$_POST['last_name']}";[/code]

Note the change from single quotes to double quotes and the change from $HTTP_POST_VARS to $_POST. It was due to wrong syntax.
Edit: Also note that just by adding spaces between the assignment operator (the equal sign) and the string makes it look nicer (IMO).

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

I'm still getting an error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\contact-us.php on line 110

[code]
// Initialize Variables
$name = $_POST['first_name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$toaddress = 'info@foxvalleycheesecake.com'; // EMAIL TO INFO
$fromaddress = 'info@foxvalleycheesecake.com';
$replyaddress = $_POST['email'];
$subject = "Contact from {$_POST['first_name']} {$_POST['last_name']}";
$content = $_POST['comments']
$autotoaddress = $_POST['email']; // AUTORESPONDER EMAIL INFO
$autofromaddress = 'info@foxvalleycheesecake.com';
$autosubject = 'Thank you for your inquiry';
$autocontent = 'Thank you for submitting your inquiry to foxvalleycheesecake.com. We value your business and will

reply as soon as possible.';
$thanksmessage = '<h1 align="center"><br>Thanks for your submission.<br /><br>We will respond as soon as

possible.</h1><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>'; //Thank You Screen
$linkhome = '<div align="center"></div>';

[/code]

Daniel0 · January 11, 2007

Change [code] $content = $_POST['comments'][/code] to [code] $content = $_POST['comments'];[/code]

Edit: Another time please point out the line that the error message is talking about.

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

So, now I'm not getting an error, but the mail doesn't seem to be coming through, either.

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

I've checked my email filter settings, and gone through the archive of the messages that haven't been delivered, and the messages are going there, either.

MSwanson · January 11, 2007

I think my problem now has to do with the way my PHP is working since when I try to test the mail() function, I don't get anything either.

I have tried to test it with:
[code]
<?php

mail('matthew@foxvalleycheesecake.com', 'Test Subject', 'Test Message');

?>
[/code]

Daniel0 · January 11, 2007

If your mail filter gets them, then maybe you need more loose settings?

MSwanson · January 12, 2007

I've got the script working (almost) and I'm receiving the messages.

MSwanson · January 12, 2007

So now that I have the basic script working, I'm trying to send the message as an html message. I keep getting either T_STRING or T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE errors that are happening in the "content" section.

Any help would be appreciated!
[code]
$name = $_POST['first_name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$toaddress = 'info@foxvalleycheesecake.com'; // EMAIL TO INFO
$fromaddress = $_POST['email'];
$replyaddress = $_POST['email'];
$subject = "FVCC Contact from {$_POST['first_name']} {$_POST['last_name']}";
//$content = $_POST['comments'];
$content = '
<html>
<head>
<title>Website Contact</title>
</head>
<body>
<strong>Customer Information: </strong>
<br>
{$_POST['first_name']} {$_POST['last_name']}
{$_POST['address']}
{$_POST['city'], {$_POST['state']} {$_POST['zip']}
<br>
<strong>Email Address:</strong>
{$_POST['email']}
<br>
<strong>Comments:</strong>
{wordwrap($_POST['comments'])}
</body>
</html>
';
[/code]
