Help Form Issues (PHP)

[urluckee]

Hi, I'm so confused. I've used the same form / PHP script on another site. However, this particular one is giving me troubles. The email results do not display the input, I only get this below:

Company:

New_or_existing:

Allocated_or_pooled:

Profit_sharing:

Employer:

Number_of_employers:

Name:

Email:

Phone:

Anyone know where the problem could be (form or PHP script)?

you'll have to post the code for the form and the php code that uses it

<?php

                    $totalcomments.="Company:".$company. "\n\n";
					$totalcomments.="New_or_existing:".$new_or_existing."\n\n";

//mail( "$mailto", "$subject", "$message", "From: $from");

header("Location:http://www.appliedplan.com/new_site/thankyou.html");
exit();

and the meat of the form:

when you are referencing a post variable, you should use

$_POST['variable']

instead of

$variable

The reason for this is that register_globals, the directive which automatically loads $GET, $POST, and other superglobal variables into locally accessible ($variable) variables can be a fairly large security risk in poorly coded applications, and in more recent versions of PHP it's disabled by default.

$totalcomments.="Company:".$company. "\n\n";

You should first initialize $totalcomments before adding content like that. I mean, just use a simple equal sign on your first line:

$totalcomments = "Company:".$company. "\n\n";

Unless you already declare it before in your code and you did not show it on the forum...
