Form Emailer will not reach success page

Recommended Posts

I have a form emailer in php that will not reach the success/failure page but does sent email successfully. I sends me to my requester.php file instead of requestsuccess.php

Form Code

<?php
/* Is User Logged In? */
session_start();
// this is just your every day page where you would want someone logged in to view the info
if ($_SESSION['loggedin'] == TRUE) { // user is logged in
print '';
} elseif ($_SESSON['loggedin'] == FALSE) { // user is not logged in
header("location:no.php"); // Use is not logged in. Send to notloggedinpage.php
      exit;
}
?>

<?

error_reporting('E_ALL');

$name = $_POST["name"];

$email = $_POST["email"];

$person = $_POST["person"];

$reason = $_POST["reason"];

$today = date("d, M Y");

$recipient = "millercj@etown.edu";

$subject = "Prayer Request";

$forminfo ="Prom: $name\nEmail: $email\nForm Submitted: $today\nPerson to add: $person\nReason: $reason\n\n";

$sent = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, "From: $email");

if($sent)

{

  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php");

  echo 'success';

}

else

{

  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestno.php");

  echo 'failed';

}

?>

oh right...

 

Im not sure if this is what you mean?

 

<?
$name = $_POST["name"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$person = $_POST["person"];
$reason = $_POST["reason"];
$today = date("d, M Y");
$recipient = "millercj@etown.edu";
$subject = "Prayer Request";
$forminfo ="Prom: $name\nEmail: $email\nForm Submitted: $today\nPerson to add: $person\nReason: $reason\n\n";
$sent = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, "From: $email");
if($sent)
{
  header("Location: portal/requestsuccess.php");
}
else
{
  header("Location: portal/requestno.php");
}
?>

 

Try that you can only put where the document is in the header you can't put http://www.------.com

when the user clicks submit it references requester.php for its instructions on what to do. That is this code:

<?
$name = $_POST["name"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$person = $_POST["person"];
$reason = $_POST["reason"];
$today = date("d, M Y");
$recipient = "millercj@etown.edu";
$subject = "Prayer Request";
$forminfo ="From: $name\nEmail: $email\nForm Submitted: $today\nPerson to add: $person\nReason: $reason\n\n";
$sent = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, "From: $email");
if($sent)
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php");}
else
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestno.php");
}
?>

 

if you look at the last directive it supposed to send the user to requestsuccess.php if it succeeds. It is succeeding because the emails are sending but instead of sending the user to the page it's just displaying a blank white screen (which i believe is requester.php) something isn't allowing it to redirect the user.

 

I hope that makes it clearer

this is requestsuccess.php

 

<?php
/* Is User Logged In? */
session_start();
// this is just your every day page where you would want someone logged in to view the info
if ($_SESSION['loggedin'] == TRUE) { // user is logged in
print '';
} elseif ($_SESSON['loggedin'] == FALSE) { // user is not logged in
header("location:no.php"); // Use is not logged in. Send to notloggedinpage.php
      exit;
}
?>

what about if you log in then just type the address into your addressbar?

 

http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php

 

as when i goto that i get "Your request has been submitted successfully!"

 

but before when you had the code in place i got a load of fd;lgadfm'lgdlk;fgn;lsn kind of thing (not a quote)

 

Could be your browser cache..

i can see it if i navigate too it but not through the form success (which has been the case all along). That still shows me a white screen. I removed both header(Location:) clauses and replaced them with a print'yes'; and print'no'; and that worked. It's definatly something with my head(Location:) but i dont see it where

create a page with just this in it

 

<?php
header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php");
?>

 

Does that work?

Have you got public details i couyld try your page with? if so make sure you put the header locations back in before i test.

hjmmm very weird i get a blank page also..

 

one thing i can see you missing is session_start(); from the top of your page that sends the email.

 

try this as this works for me

 

<?
$name = $_POST["name"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$person = $_POST["person"];
$reason = $_POST["reason"];
$today = date("d, M Y");
$recipient = "millercj@etown.edu";
$subject = "Prayer Request";
$forminfo ="From: $name\nEmail: $email\nForm Submitted: $today\nPerson to add: $person\nReason: $reason\n\n";
$sent = false;
if($sent)
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php");}
else
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestno.php");
}
?>

 

just incase it's an issue with you mail()

seems like there is some issue on your server then preventing you from sending the header location..

 

 

<?
session_start();
$name = $_POST["name"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$person = $_POST["person"];
$reason = $_POST["reason"];
$today = date("d, M Y");
$recipient = "millercj@etown.edu";
$subject = "Prayer Request";
$forminfo ="From: $name\nEmail: $email\nForm Submitted: $today\nPerson to add: $person\nReason: $reason\n\n";
$sent = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, "From: $email");
if($sent)
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestsuccess.php");}
else
{
  header("Location:http://www.stjohnsuccjonestown.org/portal/requestno.php");
}
?>

 

if your not having start_session(); at the top as above then your session will end and all $_SESSION variables will be lost.
