PHP Form Scripting

Please can someone help.
I have created a form for a website that needs to do the following:
1/ Be completed and submitted
2/ On submission show a confirmation page to the customer.
and 3/ Send an e-mail from the website and not from their own e-mail accout.
We have designed the attached form and PHP script but it just does not seem to work, we can get parts other forms to work just not the whole thing.
I am new to PHP and would be grateful if someone could have a look at it for me and change what they think is wrong.
[Moderator Note:] Moved to more appropriate forum: You may also want to attach your page again - at the moment it's stuck in the queue. Use the small camera icon to attach the file instead.

From ur attached code, actually it was a HTML coding, not the PHP scripting..

$email_field = $_POST['email'];

$city_field = $_POST['city'];
$comment= $_POST['comment'];
$dropdown = $_POST['dropdown'];
foreach($_POST['check'] as $value) {
$check_msg .= "Checked: $value\n";
$body = "From: $name_field\n E-Mail: $email_field\n $check_msg Option: $option\n Drop-Down: $dropdown\n Message:\n $message\n";
echo "Data has been submitted to $to!";
mail($to, $subject, $body);
} else {
echo "Form not Submitted!";
?>

Hello thank you for responding... yes I believe it is , I have used a drag and drop flash component with a php script for another project I had worked on not too long ago and it worked fine. Im pretty sure it is running.
Does the code and script that I provided look correct to you?

Hello,
The problem may be in a script but I also believe it has to do with my browser settings.
How else to explain that the form's data is NOT received from my laptop but is received from pc of my friend in LA and the form developer's pc.???

PHP Form Emailing Fields But No Data

Hello,
I am running into a little problem with my PHP form script. I am able to email my form and receive a message, however the message has no data, except for where I have check boxes. Can anyone help me solve this dilemma? Some of the code has been remove intentionally.
I will post my code:
<?php
/* Email Variables */
$emailSubject = ' Registration Form';
$webMaster = 'de';
/* Data Variables */
$registrationname = $_POST['registrationname'];
$registrationphone = $_POST['registrationphone'];
$registrationemail = $_POST['registrationemail'];
$registrationdistrict = $_POST['registrationdistrict'];
$registrationposition = $_POST['registrationposition'];
$onecredit = $_POST['onecredit'];
$twocredit = $_POST['twocredit'];
$threecredit = $_POST['threecredit'];
$body = <<<EOD
<br><hr><br>
Name of Register: $registrationname <br>
Day Time Phone Number: $registrationphone <br>
Email Address of Register: $registrationemail <br>
Name of School District: $registrationdistrict <br>
Position/Job Title: $registrationposition <br>
Register for 1 Credit: Learning to Use the easyCBM Assessment System: $onecredit <br>
Register for 2 Credits: In-Depth Knowledge of the easyCBM Assessment System: $twocredit <br>
Register for 3 Credits: Enroll in Both of the Above Options: $threecredit <br>
EOD;
$headers = "From: $email\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
$success = mail($webMaster, $emailSubject, $body,
$headers);
/* Results rendered as HTML */
$theResults = <<<EOD
<html>
<head>
<title>sent message</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="6;URL=http://.html">
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>
<div align="center">Thank you! Your request has been sent.
You will return to the page in a few moments.</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
EOD;
echo "$theResults";
?>

1) I would bring the line <cfoutput query="CheckUser"> lower down in the code, for example, just before the first table tag.
2)These are probably mistakes
<<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<input type="hidden" name="LogDate" value="Now()">
I think they should be
<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<input type="hidden" name="LogDate" value="#Now()#">
3) You could revise the action page to:
<cfif isDefined("form.logDate")>
<cfinsert datasource="manna_premier" formfields="LogDate,TerritoryManager,Status,DSRName,ServiceName" tablename="TMStatusLog">
<cflocation url="mp_order_form.cfm">
</cfif>
The table TMStatusLog must of course have columns LogDate, TerritoryManager, Status, DSRName and ServiceName.

Help with web form script. PHP, CGI, Perl???

anyone willing to help with a web form script? I have a form built, but cant seem to figure out the scripting! Should I be using Perl, CGI, PHP... What do I need to enable? I am a complete novice when it comes to scripts. Looking for a little friendly help.

Here is a simple bit of PHP to stick in the page your form posts to. You would need to edit the first three variables to your liking, and add the html you want to serve afterwards:
<pre>
<?php
$emailFrom = '[email protected]';
$emailTo = '[email protected]';
$emailSubject = 'Subject';
$date = date('l, \t\h\e dS \o\f F, Y \a\t g:i A');
$browser = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['HTTP_USERAGENT'];
$hostname = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['REMOTEADDR'];
$message = "$date\n\nAddress: $hostname\nBrowser: $browser\n\n";
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$message .= $key . ": " . $value . "\n";
$mailResult = mail($emailTo,$emailSubject,$message,"From: $emailFrom");
?>
</pre>
This script will grab the server's date and the submitter's address and browser type. It will then list the name and value of each form field you have put on your form.
Also, this script expects your form method="post".
Lastly, you can offer alternate text later on in your html page based on the success of the above script with a snippet like this:
<pre><?php
if ($mailResult) {
echo "Your comments have been received thank you.";
} else {
echo "There was an error. Please try again or contact us using an alternate method.";
?></pre>

Php form processing script

Hi. I got a program to write a php form processing script. My submit form is for photo submission to my domain email. I published to site and did a test to see if it works i got this error:
Warning: require_once(F:\Domains\mydomain\mydomain.com\wwwroot/includes/Upload_Photos-lib.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in F:\Domains\mydomain\mydomain.com\wwwroot\Upload_Photos.php on line 24 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'F:\Domains\mydomain\mydomain.com\wwwroot/includes/Upload_Photos-lib.php' (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in F:\Domains\mydomain\mydomain.com\wwwroot\Upload_Photos.php on line 24
What does this mean? How can i solve this so that i can process my form?

See if the below form helps: You need to create a folder on your server named - upload - this is where any files uploaded will be stored (make sure the folder is writable. Also change the email address where the information that someone who has uploaded a file will go to. Look for the following in the code: $to ="XXXXXXXXXXXX.com";
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />

PHP Form Mail Scripts

What is a good resource for pre-made PHP Form Mailer Scripts.
This is for use with a website hosted on GoDaddy.
My client has a few requirements that the GoDaddy script does
not offer (and the script I chose from GoDaddy is uneditable). I
know nothing about scripting but thought I could use a pre-made
script and modify it...is that crazy thinking on my part?
Here are the special requests from my client:
- They'd like to see the time the form was submitted in EST
(the GoDaddy script puts the time in military time in another time
zone in the subject line). Can this appear in the body of the email
as well as the subject line?
- They'd like the form to be sent to the person submitting it
as well as to their company
- They would like to be able to REPLY TO the email they
receive with the form submission and have it be addressed to the
person submitting the form. The current script has the email
addressed to themselves (the company) if they click REPLY TO, so
they are replying to themselves
- Although this has nothing to do with the Form Mailer script
as far as I can guess, they asked that the person filling out the
form be able to print it prior to submitting (in my opinion,
though, if i can have a copy of the submission sent to the
submitter, there's no reason for this). But if anyone knows how to
do this, please let me know.
- Finally, the client wants to know if each submission can
have a unique tracking number assigned to it.
Thank you all. Any feedback is appreciated.
Richard

Hi,
I can without any doubt recommend Forms 2 Go:
http://www.bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/index.php
Very easy to use and even someone like me who don't know a
lot of
programming, use it extensively.

Need help adapting David Powers PHP email form script please!

Hi all,
I'm fairly inexperienced with PHP and I'm trying to adapt the David Powers email form script from THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO DREAMWEAVER CS4 WITH CSS, AJAX, AND PHP.
I've created a basic form so that visitors to the site can request a telephone call back from the site owner. The form asks the visitor for their name, telephone number and to select a time of day suitable for the telephone call to be made using radio buttons selecting between morning and afternoon.
I'd like to achieve my goal with minimal validation error messages and would like to redirect to another page when a message is sent successfully. It is also important that in the spirit of the David Powers script I'm trying to work with, that it filters out suspect input, avoids email header injection attacks and blocks submission by spam bots.
There may be a really simple solution to this since I don't want users to be able to enter an email address at all but I don't know enough to be able to figure it out just yet.
I'd be grateful for any advice.
See below for the code for the form including PHP so far...
Thanks to everyone looking in in advance

Thank you for reminding me. There's a mistake in the book,
which I
discovered over the Christmas period, so forgot to send to
friends of ED
for the errata page.
Don't use $_SESSION[MM_Username]. Use $loginUsername instead.
It then works.

Need help with PHP form with checkboxes, radio buttons and file attachment

Hi guys,
I'm having a nightmare with this PHP form where a user can fill it in, attach a doc/pdf and submit. After trying to sort it out with previous code I've used, I've stripped it out and think I should just start again in the hope you geniuses can help!
Here is the HTML of contact.php:
<form action="" method="post" name="contact" id="contact">
    <p>Job Title:*<br />
    <input name="position" type="text" /></p>
    <p>Nationality:*<br />
    <select name="nationality">
      <option value="">-- select one --</option>
      <option value="Afghan">Afghan</option>
      <option value="Albanian">Albanian</option>
      <option value="Algerian">Algerian</option>
      <option value="Zambian">Zambian</option>
      <option value="Zimbabwean">Zimbabwean</option>
    </select>
    </p>
    <p>Which country are you currently living in?*<br />
    <select name="country">
    <option value="">-- select one --</option>
    <option value="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</option>
    <option value="Afghanistan">Afghanistan</option>
    <option value="Africa">Africa</option>
    <option value="Zambia">Zambia</option>
    <option value="Zimbabwe">Zimbabwe</option>
    </select>
    </p>
    <label class="radio" for="checkRight">Yes/No question?</label><br />
    <input class="radio" type="radio" name="right" value="Yes" /> Yes
    <input class="radio" type="radio" name="right" value="No" /> No
    <input class="radio" type="radio" name="right" value="N/A" /> Not applicable
    <p>Yes/No question?<br />
    <select name="continue">
    <option value="">-- select one --</option>
    <option value="Yes">Yes</option>
    <option value="No">No</option>
    </select>
    </p>
    <p>Select your resorts:<br />
    Resort 1<input name="res1" type="checkbox" value="Resort 1" />
    Resort 2<input name="res2" type="checkbox" value="Resort 2" />
    Resort 3<input name="res3" type="checkbox" value="Resort 3" />
    Resort 4<input name="res4" type="checkbox" value="Resort 4" />
    Resort 5<input name="res5" type="checkbox" value="Resort 5" />
    Resort 6<input name="res6" type="checkbox" value="Resort 6" />
    </p>
    <p>Don't send form unless this is checked:* <input type="checkbox" name="parttime" value="Yes" /></p>
    <p>Date of arrival: <input name="arrive" id="datepick" /><br />
    Date of departure: <input name="depart" id="datepick2" /></p>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="assets/scripts/datepickr/datepickr.js"></script>
    <link href="assets/scripts/datepickr/datepickr.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <script type="text/javascript">
    new datepickr('datepick');
    new datepickr('datepick2', {
    </script>
    <p>Name:*<br />
    <input name="name" type="text" /></p>
    <p>E-mail:*<br />
    <input name="email" type="text" /></p>
    <p>Telephone:*<br />
    <input name="telephone" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p>Upload CV (Word of PDF formats only):<br />
    <input type="file" name="cv" class="textfield"></p>
    <p><input name="submit" value="Submit Enquiry" class="submitButton" type="submit" /><div style="visibility:hidden; width:1px; height:1px"><input name="url" type="text" size="45" id="url" /></div></p>
</form>
By the way, the date boxes work so excuse the Javascript in there!
To prevent SPAM I've used a trick where there's a hidden URL field which must be left blank for the form to submit which you can see in the PHP.
Below is where I'm at with the PHP which is placed above the header of contact.php...
<?php
if (array_key_exists('submit', $_POST)) {
    $position = $_POST['position'];
    $arrive = $_POST['arrive'];
    $nationality = $_POST['nationality'];
    $parttime = $_POST['parttime'];
    $depart = $_POST['depart'];
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $telephone = $_POST['telephone'];
$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Recruitment Application";
$message = $headers;
$message .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$message .= "E-mail: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: My Website <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
$message= "
$url = stripslashes($_POST["url"]);
if (!empty($url)) {
header( 'Location: http://www.go-away-spam-robots.com' );
exit();
if (!isset($warning)) {
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
header( 'Location: http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/sent.php' );
?>
I would like to make pretty much all the field compulsory so if a field is left empty (other than the hidden URL field), a warning message is displayed next to that field.
Also I would like the file upload field to attach to the email that is sent to me and have the results come through to me in a table format.
Can anyone help me get my form working?
Thank you and I hope to hear from you!
SM

Hi Nancy,
Great stuff, thank you for the reply.
I've managed to get the Formm@iler working and running as I need it to.
The only thing I'm struggling with is when the user clicks submit, they are taken to a page of whatever results the form returned but it is just a white background with Times New Roman text.
How can I have it so the user is taken to the form results in the websites' page layout?
I tried sending them to a generic 'thank you' page by adding the following code but it just took them there whatever the results of the form so that's no good...! I have a feeling it's a bit more complicated than that...
header( 'Location: http://www.nofussbus.co.uk/test/sent.php' );
Thank you for your help!

My PHP form no longer works?

Hi
http://www.collegestudentvoice.com/form/form.php
1. Programmer says there is no coding errors. Nothing has changed.
2. Host says there must be coding errors.
3. There may version incompetibilities with Perl script between the form and the host version.
these are 3 files:

bregent,
you have explained everything was is happening.
Mine firewall setttings block the scrip so when I fill the form and submit it, I do not get any errors, but that form information does not go anywhere.
All firewall setting should be OFF when a form is submitted?

Spry Validation For PHP Form

Hello All,
I am currently using the Spry Validation within Dreamweaver 5.1.1 and it was working in my development environment until yesterday. I did not change directories so I believe it is not an issue with my file structure. Below you will see my baic form set up and for some reason, when I load my page, all of the spry error messages are visable. Previously, the page would load and it would not appear until there was an error after submitting the page. Maybe I'm missing something but an extra pair of eyes does not hurt. The ".textfieldRequiredMsg" class displays automatically when it is set in the css file to "display: none:".
I'm stumped:

var sprytextfield1 = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield1", "none", {validateOn:["change"]});

That's what is driving me crazy. The code appears correctly. The DOCTYPE is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
I've attached a screenshot of the page once it loads without submitting the actual form and the spry settings in Dreamweaver.
Thanks!

Can you auto-attach files in a PHP form?

Hi there,
Have been looking over everywhere for a solution to my problem. I am going to try and be as clear as I can about the problem.
I have had some experience making simple PHP forms that let the user put their name, email, subject and body text and send it in an email using the form.
But for a project I am currently undertaking - the client has requested a form that will pre-attach a particular document to the email when it is sent. All the user has to do is input the email address of the adressee and their name/email address and all the other fields are custom made (i.e. subject, body text) - and the email will be sent to the selected recepient with the file already attached.
I was envisaging the PHP script would collect the reference for a file that is already sitting on the web server and attach it in the function.
Is there anyway to do this? Because if it isn't I may as well tell the client to go and use outlook - because the web form will really have no purpose.
Thanks in advance

Hi have proceeded along the path of inserting links
into PHP generated email but I am having trouble in outputting the body message in HTML - All I get out
in the output email is the HTML tags with the text (plain text).
Did some research and found out that I have to determine the content type/charset.
I have tried to do this in my PHP but to no avail. Also I am not getting the email or name of the sender in the email that is generated....
Anyway, there is the PHP code (and it's not that tight but it works):
AND SOME DEFAULT TEXT THAT WILL CONTAIN LINKS TO NECESSARY FILES TO DOWNLOAD:
link to PDF '.$field_message; $headers = 'From: '.$cf_yremail."\r\n"; $headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$cf_yremail."\r\n"; /* If your e-mail is not valid show error message */ if (!preg_match("/([\w\-]+\@[\w\-]+\.[\w\-]+)/", $mail_to)) { ?>
Any help on this would be much appreciated....
Thanks

Php form problem and question

I am a new web designer who is not code savey yet. Anyway
during the various sites i have designed i have used 3 different
forms that process and email it to me using a seperate php form, 1
in flash, 2 from a standard html form on a windows server. All have
been uploaded, to the site, tested and worked fine. 2 are in old
sites, one in my current site. Recently all 3 forms stopped working
and while they looked like they worked fine they no longer actually
sent anything. I had a big email arguement with my host and finally
they added this line into my php script "ini_set
("sendmail_from","[email protected]");" email address is example here
and they added another form to my site called "php4-cgi-fcgi.ini."
Then my curent form started working again. I haven't changed
anything, and of course the host never informed me of any changes.
So why did this need to be added for my form to work again? Does
this mean they upgraded to another version or something? Ihad a big
arguement with them because they refused to tell me what they did
that stopped all my forms from working, they kept acting like it
was me or my provider that caused the problem, when i am positive
we were not the problem. Any thoughts?

doing a google on "ini_set ("sendmail_from" gives a lot of
info.
summary- the form script you are using is probably not
setting a default
"FROM" email address, so the host has phpmail() reject it as
possible spam
abuse.
The .ini files the host added to your site correct the
problem. They change
values for php to use within your hosting domain.
What php script are you using to send the emails? It is
probably out of date
if it doesn't address this issue.
Off Topic: suggest never arguing with hosting support. Even
it the person at
the other end of the phone is an 18 year old drone not
earning their salt.
Move the site if needed. Develop social engineering skills to
get things
done.
