I garantee I'm doing something wrong here, but I cant seem to figure it out... It is returning everything but the Drivers License value. sorry to keep pestering you guys :o

 

HTML form code:

<form method="post" action="sendmail.php">
  
  <input name="email" type="text" value="Email Address" />
  <input name="firstname" type="text" value="First Name" />
  <input name="lastname" type="text" value="Last Name" />
  <br />
  <input name="telephone" type="text" value="Telephone" />
  <input name="drivers" type="text" value="Drivers License? (Y/N)" />
  <input name="position" type="text" value="Position" />
  <br />
  <input name="address" type="text" value="Address" size="73" />
  <br />
  <textarea name="message" rows="15" cols="70">Employment History:

References:

Availability:

Comments:</textarea>
  <br />
  <input type="submit" />
  </form>

 

sendmail code:

<?php
  $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
  $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
  $firstname = $_REQUEST['firstname'] ;
  $lastname = $_REQUEST['lastname'] ;
  $telephone = $_REQUEST['telephone'] ;
  $drivers = $_REQUEST['drivers'] ;
  $position = $_REQUEST['position'] ;
  $address = $_REQUEST['address'] ;

  mail( "[email protected]", "Job Application",
    $firstname . ' ' . $lastname . "\n" . $telephone . "\n" . 'Drivers License: ' . $drivers . "\n" . 'Position Applying For: ' . $position . "\n" . 'Address: ' . $address . "\n" . $message , "From: $email" );
  header( "Location: index.php" );
?>

I took your original code, modified it somewhat and tested the modified code. It worked fine. Here's the modified code:

<?php
$post_array = array('name' => '', 'drivers' => 'Drivers License: ',
                    'position' => 'Position Applying For: ', 'address' => 'Address: ', 'message' => '');
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
  $email = $_POST['email'] ;
  $tmp = array();
  $tmp['name'] = '';
  foreach ($_POST as $key => $val)
     switch($key) {
        case 'firstname':
        case 'lastname':
            $tmp['name'] .= $val . ' ';
            break;
        case 'email':
            $email = stripslashes($val);
            break;
        case 'submit':
            break;
        default:
            $tmp[$key] = trim(stripslashes($val));
     }
  $tmp2 = array();
  foreach ($post_array as $key => $lbl)
        $tmp2[] = ($lbl != '')?$lbl . stripslashes($tmp[$key]):$tmp[$key];

  mail( "[email protected]", "Job Application",implode("\n",$tmp2)."\n" , "From: $email" );
}
?>
