passing option value item to php email

[dmacman1962]

Hi all,

I have a form with a quantity list you can pick from an option value list.

IE

td>Quantity</td>
        <td><select name='Quantity'>
              <option value='0'>0</option>
              <option value='1'>1</option>
              <option value='2'>2</option>
              <option value='3'>3</option>
              <option value='4'>4</option>
              <option value='5'>5</option>
              <option value="6">6</option>
              <option value="7">7</option>
              <option value="8">8</option>
              <option value="9">9</option>
              <option value="10">10</option>
              <option value="11">11</option>
              <option value="12">12</option>
              <option value="13">13</option>
              <option value="14">14</option>
              <option value="15">15</option>
              <option value="16">16</option>
              <option value="17">17</option>
              <option value="18">18</option>
              <option value="19">19</option>
              <option value="20">20</option>
        </select></td>

And what I am trying to do is pass the value of the Quantity selected to my process.php page.

I can get the value of the checkbox they use to select the item, but not the quantity. Here is my php process.php page code.

<?
$Item1 = $_REQUEST['Item1'];
$Quantity = $_REQUEST['Quantity'];

print "The Item ordered is ".$Item1;
print "The quantity ordered is ".$Quantity; 

mail ("[e-mail]", "Order for me", $Item1, $Quantity);
header ( "Location: http:[url]www.somewhere.com/thankyou.html[/url]" ) ;
?>

I Have this in my php page where they choose the item and hit submit.

<? $Quantity = $_POST['Quantity'] ?>

And I always get "0" for the quantity.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Put $Quantity in the body of your message, not in the header. You're passing it as the 4th parameter to the mail() function, which is additional headers. It needs to be part of the 3rd parameter.

Thanks for the info.

I found that the id= for the form was missing. When I added it, problem gone!!

Thanks,
