I just switched hosting companies and opted for PHP5 on the new server. The field "Home_Owner's_Name" is not passing through the email form, but all other lines are working fine. Any help is appreciated.

<?php

    $tmp_name = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
    $name = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
    $size = $_FILES['userfile']['size'];

echo "<html>";
echo "<body>";


$subject = " Order Placed ";

$from = $_POST['email'];
$user_email = $_POST['email'];

//  a text messge
$message = "<html> <body>";
$message .= "<h3>Order Form</h3>.<hr width=75% align=left height=2 color=green><br>";

    The problem is probably the "'" in the field name. I would recommend changing it to something without the quote; but if you really need it, then you'll have to escape it in the code, e.g. $_POST["Home_Owner\'s_Name"].

      No ... the apostrophes would be fine, as is the comma and colon (one of the fields has the colon as part of the name, the others don't: why is this?) ... odd, but legitimate. Then again, spaces would be legitimate as well and PHP translates them to underscores.

      I'm not having problems with apostrophes in my tests; what else does $_REQUEST contain, and what does the form itself look like?

        Here's my test and results:

        <form action="" method="post">
   <input type="hidden" name="This_here's_a_test" value="test">
   <input type="submit">
</form>
<pre><?php
print_r($_POST);
echo $_POST['This_here\\\'s_a_test'] . "\n";
echo $_POST["This_here\\'s_a_test"] . "\n";
echo $_POST['This_here\'s_a_test'] . "\n";
echo $_POST["This_here's_a_test"] . "\n";
?></pre>

        Output:

        Array
(
    [This_here\'s_a_test] => test
)
test

Notice:  Undefined index:  This_here's_a_test in C:\wamp\www\test\test.php on line 9

        PHP 5.2.6 on WinVista under Apache 2.2.8 tested in Firefox 3.0.3

        Verdict: somewhere in the process between form submission and the start of executing the PHP commands in my script, a backslash is insinuated into the $_POST array element key for that field.

          My output (less XDebug markup):

          Array
(
    [This_here's_a_test] => test
)

          Are you sure you haven't got magic_quotes_gpc turned on? 🙂 I guess that's what I'd be looking at next.

            Doh! I had checked that by taking a quick look at my php.ini to make sure it was off. However, I forgot I'd turned it on in a .htaccess file in my test directory to check something out last week and never got rid of it. :o :eek:

            Anyway, long story short for the OP, check your magic_quotes_gpc setting. 😉
