Need Help with my php code please!

[lauraccb]

Here is the php code I currently have.  The problem is that when I enter values for each field and the form is submitted, "alternate phone", "best time to call", and "best time for your free estimate" don't show the values I entered when it comes to my email.  Any help is greatly appreciated!!!  Thanks!

 

<?php
define(FORM_TO,'[email protected]');



$name = $_GET['name'];
$email = $_GET['email'];
$phone = $_GET['phone'];
$alternatephone = $_GET['alternatephone'];
$address = $_GET['address'];
$city = $_GET['city'];
$state = $_GET['state'];

$name = $_REQUEST['name'] ;
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$phone = $_REQUEST['comments'] ;
$alternatephone = $_REQUEST['alternate phone'] ;
$address = $_REQUEST['address'] ;
$city = $_REQUEST['city'] ;
$state = $_REQUEST['state'] ;
$zip = $_REQUEST['zip'] ;
$best_time_to_call = $_REQUEST['best time to call?'] ;
$best_time_for_your_free_estimate = $_REQUEST['best time for your free estimate?'] ;
$comments = $_REQUEST['comments'] ;

$product_name = $_GET['product_name'];

$curdate = date("r");


$to      = FORM_TO;
$subject = $product_name . ' Form Mail';
$headers = 'From: [email protected]'. "\r\n";

$message = "


Name:\t $name
Email:\t $email

Address:\t $address

Best Time for your free estimate?:\t $best_time_for_your_free_estimate
Comments:\t $comments

$howhelp



Date/Time Stamp:  $curdate

";



mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);


#echo "<pre>";
#print_r($_GET);
#echo "</pre>";

header("Location: thankyou.html");
?>

Please post the code for your form between

tags.

 

Why are you using both the $_GET and $_REQUEST arrays to obtain the values? If your form uses 'method="GET"' the values will be in the $_GET array. If it uses 'method="post"' then use the $_POST array.

Sorry, here is the html code in the contact page:

 

 

<form METHOD="POST" ACTION="php2.php"> 
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="recipient" VALUE="[email protected]">

<input type=hidden name="redirect" value="http://www.thebathsolution.net/thankyou.html"> 

<tr><td class="contact_label">Name<sup><span class="importance">*</span></sup>

Names in the <input> tag shouldn't have spaces or special characters in them. Change your form to (in part)

<tr><td class="contact_label">Alternate Phone 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="alternate_phone" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">Address 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="address" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">City 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="city" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">State 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="state" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">Zip 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="zip" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">Best Time to Call? 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="best_time_call" value="">
<tr><td class="contact_label">Best Time for your free estimate? 
<td><input type=text size=40 name="best_time_free" value="">

 

Then change the php script to:

<?php
$name = $_POST['name'] ;
$email = $_POST['email'] ;
$phone = $_POST['comments'] ;
$alternatephone = $_POST['alternate_phone'] ;
$address = $_POST['address'] ;
$city = $_POST['city'] ;
$state = $_POST['state'] ;
$zip = $_POST['zip'] ;
$best_time_to_call = $_POST['best_time_call?'] ;
$best_time_for_your_free_estimate = $_POST['best_time_free'] ;
?>

 

Get rid of the lines that reference $_GET, since your form doesn't use the GET method. Change any references to $_REQUEST to $_POST.
