Hi all,

Below is the code used for an online form created with PHP. I'm receiving a confirmation that the form was sent, however when I receive the email, it looks like this with obvious blank fields.


Email:
Name:
Property Address:
City:
State:
Zip:
Telephone:


Here is my code being used:

This is total deja vu. I swear this exact code has been posted with this exact problem before. Woah.

Anyway...


$emailField = $_POST['email'];
$nameField = $_POST['name'];
$addressField = $_POST['address'];
$cityField = $_POST['city'];
$stateField = $_POST['state'];
$zipField = $_POST['zip'];
$telephoneField = $_POST['telephone'];

$body = <<<EOD
<br><hr><br>
Email: $email <br>
Name: $name <br>
Property Address: $address <br>
City: $city <br>
State: $state <br>
Zip: $zip <br>
Telephone: $telephone <br>
EOD;


Take a close look at the variable names you are echoing out, as opposed to the variable names you assigning $_POST values to. Notice anything?

Looks like some example code or something is making its rounds...

bcurls14: You set $emailField but later use it as $email... They need to be the same.

Also:
$headers = "From: $email\n";
Should be:
$headers = "From: $email\r\n";
