PHP Form Mail problem

Bavilo · March 4, 2006

Hey everyone,

Have a bit of a "problem" here. I have a form which has several field such as name, address...etc. now...i have a phone number field which consists of 3 fields. phone1, phone2, phone3, for area code...etc.

I have a php script that sends me an email with whatever field i specify, but it doesn't have the option for such a phone field. So i did this

[code]
<?php
 $phone = array($_POST['phone1'], $_POST['phone2'], $_POST['phone3']);

// General Variables
 $check_referrer="no";
 $referring_domains="";

// Default Error and Success Page Variables
 $error_page_title="Error - Missed Fields";
 $error_page_text="Please use your browser's back button to return to the form and complete the required fields.";
 $thanks_page_title="Message Sent";
 $thanks_page_text="Thanks for your inquiry";

// options to use if hidden field "config" has a value of 0
// recipient info
 $charset[0]="iso-8859-1";
 $tomail[0]="mikew88@gmail.com";
 $cc_tomail[0]="";
 $bcc_tomail[0]="";
// Mail contents config
 $subject[0]="GHS Student Photography";
 $reply_to_field[0]="Email";
 $reply_to_name[0]="Name";
 $required_fields[0]="Name,Address,$phone,City,State,Make,Model,Year,SingleQuantity,SingleDrawerQuantity,DoubleQuantity,DoubleDrawerQuantity,Breed,Comments";
 $required_email_fields[0]="Email";
 $attachment_fields[0]="";
 $return_ip[0]="yes";
 $mail_intro[0]="GHS Student Photography";
 $mail_fields[0]="Name,Address,City,State,$phone,Email,Make,Model,Year,SingleQuantity,SingleDrawerQuantity,DoubleQuantity,DoubleDrawerQuantity,Breed,Comments";
 $mail_type[0]="text";
 $mail_priority[0]="1";
[/code]

I added the upper array for each form field, so it puts em together. And in the lower section where it says $mail_fields, I added the $phone variable. But it wont send, the form tells me to fill out the "" field. yes, it just leaves the required field blank. Not sure if i can include a variable like that in that field. Any help is appreciated. btw, i previewed this code, and it replaces the "$" with "& #036;" it doesn't do that in wordpad, or notepad. Again, weird...

Is it even possible to put a variable in another variable? because the $phone doesn't seem to work...

your code looks like a bunch of variable declarations, where is the email portion?

This is a prewritten script. okay.

without pouring over someone elses prewritten code for twenty minutes, here's what I would suggest you "try" first.

$phone = $_POST['phone1']."-".$_POST['phone2']."-".$_POST['phone3'];

that converts the phone number to a string like xxx-xxx-xxxx

apparently your script isn't looking for a variable called $phone -- so you have to figure out what variable it is looking for and insert it there.

better solution. write you own mail script.
