HELP!! I'm new to PHP and need some help with this contact form...

[jagreen78]

Everything seems to work except my "select" list that I tried to add....and I don't know if it is capturing all the data once you hit the send button...

 

<?php

class maxContact {

    var $subjectText = "This message has been sent from the web site";

    var $targetEmail = "mail@mail.com";

    var $mailFormat  = "text/plain";

    var $fieldList;

    var $errorList;

    var $email = '';

    var $name  = '';

    var $phone= '';

    var $additionalText = '';

 

    function maxContact(){

        //Extend the list as you want here

        $this->fieldList[0]['caption'] = "City";

        $this->fieldList[0]['fieldName'] = "city";

        $this->fieldList[0]['value'] = "";

        $this->fieldList[1]['caption'] = "State";

        $this->fieldList[1]['fieldName'] = "state";

        $this->fieldList[1]['value'] = "";

      $this->fieldList[2]['caption'] = "Zip";

        $this->fieldList[2]['fieldName'] = "zip";

        $this->fieldList[2]['value'] = "";

    }

 

    function showForm(){

      $message = '';

      echo '<form action="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'" method="post">';

      echo '  <table>';

      echo '  <tr><td>Name:</td>'

          .'  <td><input type="text" name="name" value="'.$this->name.'" /></td></tr>';

      echo '  <tr><td>Email:</td>'

          .'  <td><input type="text" name="email" value="'.$this->email.'"/></td></tr>';

       

      // Now display additional elements 

      foreach ($this->fieldList as $value) {

          echo '  <tr><td>'.$value['caption'].':</td>'

              .'  <td><input type="text" name="'.$value['fieldName'].'" value="'.$value['value'].'" /></td></tr>';

      }         

   

      echo '    <tr><td>Phone:</td>'

          .'    <td ><input type="text" name="phone">'.$this->phone.'</textarea></td></tr>'

      echo '    <tr><td>Reason for contact:</td>'

can you expand on the problem? what do you mean by you don't know? what have you done to check? thx

[jagreen78]

well first of all the more important problem is that once I added this code, the page went blank...

 

echo '    <tr><td>Reason for contact:</td>'

          .'    <td ><select name="reason" id="reason">

                <option value="Annuities" selected="selected">Annuities</option>

                <option value="Life  Insurance">Life  Insurance</option>

                <option value="Long Term Care">Long Term Care</option>

                <option value="Medicare Supplement  Insurance">Medicare Supplement  Insurance</option>

                <option value="Health  Insurance">Health  Insurance</option>

            </select></td></tr>'

 

 

And I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT PHP....I found this contact form and I am simply trying to piece my own contact form together from it. Thanks.
