Hello everyone,

I recently wrote a mail script. I am having a few problems with it though. For example, when i submit information from the form page, and leave out a field, the script will then process and echo back the form fields saying that something was missing...when i then try to submit the missing info from that page, it works sometimes...seriously...it works one time and doesn't another. I dont know why it would do this. Another problem i have is that when someone wants to enter a street address such as 123 first str. it will say some field was missing because it doens't like the ".", how could i fix this just for this one field?

Here are the 2 codes, i hope someone can look over them and see if anything else is wrong with it.
Also, the actual site where you can try for yourself is here htttp://spunge.org/~bavilo/EuroDogCrates/index.php?id=id/contact

Btw, I haven't worked on the wrong email function yet, im gonna make it echo the same form like the missing field function. But i would like to get this sorted out first.
