trying to email the results of a form

diego3949 · April 2, 2008

I just started learning PHP, and i'm writing a simple form with radio buttons and a submit button that emails the results.

I had it working before with checkboxes but i realized that for this form i needed radio buttons. Now when i submit the form i recieve a blank email. I'm doing this for work so any help would be a lifesaver!

here is my code:

//above this was my CSS and html opening tags

<?php

$windowsUpdate_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$avUpdate_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$virusScan_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$dustClean_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$usb_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$optical_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$replaceParts_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$errorCheck_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$diskClean_Status = 'unchecked' ;

$defrag_Status = 'unchecked' ;

if (isset($_POST['submitForm'])) {

$selected_radio = $_POST['windowsUpdate'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'windowsUpdatePend') {

$windowsUpdate_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'windowsUpdateDone') {

$windowsUpdate_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'windowsUpdateNA') {

$windowsUpdate_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['avUpdate'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'avUpdatePend') {

$avUpdate_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'avUpdateDone') {

$avUpdate_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'avUpdateNA') {

$avUpdate_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['virusScan'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'virusScanPend') {

$virusScan_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'virusScanDone') {

$virusScan_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'virusScanNA') {

$virusScan_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['dustClean'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'dustCleanPend') {

$dustClean_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'dustCleanDone') {

$dustClean_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'dustCleanNA') {

$dustClean_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['usb'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'usbPend') {

$usb_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'usbDone') {

$usb_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'usbNA') {

$usb_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['optical'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'opticalPend') {

$optical_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'opticalDone') {

$optical_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'opticalNA') {

$optical_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['replaceParts'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'replacePartsPend') {

$replaceParts_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'replacePartsDone') {

$replaceParts_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'replacePartsNA') {

$replaceParts_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['errorCheck'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'errorCheckPend') {

$errorCheck_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'errorCheckDone') {

$errorCheck_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'errorCheckNA') {

$errorCheck_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['diskClean'] ;

if($selected_radio == 'diskCleanPend') {

$diskClean_Status = 'pending';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'diskCleanDone') {

$diskClean_Status = 'done';

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'diskCleanNA') {

$diskClean_Status = 'n/a';

}

$selected_radio = $_POST['defrag'] ;

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'defragDone') {

}

elseif ($selected_radio == 'defragNA') {

$defrag_Status = 'n/a';

}

if (array_key_exists ('submitForm' , $_POST)) {

mail ($to = "[email protected]", $subject = "Computer Maintenance Checklist Form",

$message = $computerName, "Checklist Items:

try changing:

<?php

if (array_key_exists ('submitForm' , $_POST)) {

mail ($to = "[email protected]", $subject = "Computer Maintenance Checklist Form",
   $message = $computerName, "Checklist Items:
    'Windows Update: {$_POST['$windowsUpdate_Status']}',

$mail_sent = @mail ($to, $subject, $message, $headers) ;

to this:

<?php

$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Computer Maintenance Checklist Form";
$message = $computerName;
$message .= "	Checklist Items:
