Hello oh wise ones...

 

I am a graphic designer and illustrator just trying to make it in the world, which means for me, creating

the ocassional website. Adding a simple email form is one thing I like to supply to my clients.

 

I've had some succes in the past, using PHP, but when I get the opportunity, I try and upgrade what I'm using.

 

In the latest sight I'm working on, I've used this PHP code to Post a form.

 

<?php

$sendTo = "[email protected]";

$subject = "Contact Request";

$headers = "From: " . $_POST["name"];

$headers .= "<" . $_POST["email"] . ">\r\n";

$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Return-Path: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Company: " . $_POST["company"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Address : " . $_POST["address"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "City: " . $_POST["city"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "State: " . $_POST["state"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Zip Code: " . $_POST["zip"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "phone: " . $_POST["phone"] . "\r\n";

$message = $_POST["message"];

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>

 

But when I get the email some of the fields don't show, in Paticular these five. 

 

$headers .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Company: " . $_POST["company"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Address : " . $_POST["address"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "City: " . $_POST["city"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "State: " . $_POST["state"] . "\r\n";

 

I've used this before, but this time I am trying to work in the whole, "From" , "Reply To" and "Return-Path"

thing, which is a really conveneient addition. And that portion is working correctly.

 

Can anyone see why only the Zip Code, Phone Number and Message fields would work return ?

Thanks in advance for you help and knowledge.

We need to actual form that gets submitted.

 

Edit:

 

Actually this 


$headers .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Company: " . $_POST["company"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Address : " . $_POST["address"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "City: " . $_POST["city"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "State: " . $_POST["state"] . "\r\n";

 

should be

 

$message = $_POST["message"];
$message .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\n";
$message .= "Company: " . $_POST["company"] . "\n";
$message .= "Address : " . $_POST["address"] . "\n";
$message .= "City: " . $_POST["city"] . "\n";
$message .= "State: " . $_POST["state"] . "\n";

 

I do not think the headers include the name company etc. You want that in the message.

Should I paste that code here, or a link to the development site ?

 

The development site is at the URL below,

 

http://www.billgaines.com/brickhouseweb

 

It uses a flash navigation, so I can't give you a direct link to the contact page.

But if you click on Contact us you'll see the form. ( sending the form doesn't require

the flash navigation)

 

and what the heck, here is the code for the form on that page...

 

Thank you !!!

 

 

<form action="contactus.php" method="post" name="form1" target="body">

           

            <table width="363" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
