[SOLVED] I'm lost....(php form)

vince.clark · October 18, 2007

I have been attempting to install a form (matts archive) however, the server will not accept the cgi script. So I tried my hand at a free php script.

I am no where near proficient with php, actually this is my first time attempting to utilize it. Below you will find the 2 files required to make the form work. Once I have uploaded the form, it tells me that all required areas need to be filled out even though they are. I'm about to pull what little hair I have left out. Please help:

Here is the form link: www.liviewater.com/form_pop.php

I just tried this on my server and it worked fine. Are you filling out the form before submitting?

Thank you, I figured it out. I did not set the required fields properly. I guess in my mad rush to update, I was not paying much attention to a minor detail.

I apologize for taking up your time.
