Thanks for any help. I am new to this and I truly appreciate your knowledge.
I am trying to make a simple form functional on my site, when I try to submit the form, I get this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/rkstith/public_html/send_form_email.php on line 4
Here is my php code:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['email'])) {
�����
����// EDIT THE 2 LINES BELOW AS REQUIRED
����$email_to = "customerservice@stithaquatics.com";
����$email_subject = "Web Submission";
�����
�����
����function died($error) {
��������// your error code can go here
��������echo "We are very sorry, but there were error(s) found with the form you submitted. ";
��������echo "These errors appear below.<br /><br />";
��������echo $error."<br /><br />";
��������echo "Please go back and fix these errors.<br /><br />";
��������die();
����}
�����
����// validation expected data exists
����if(!isset($_POST['first_name']) ||
��������!isset($_POST['last_name']) ||
��������!isset($_POST['email']) ||
��������!isset($_POST['telephone']) ||
��������!isset($_POST['comments'])) {
��������died('We are sorry, but there appears to be a problem with the form you submitted.');������
����}
�����
����$first_name = $_POST['first_name']; // required
����$last_name = $_POST['last_name']; // required
����$email_from = $_POST['email']; // required
����$telephone = $_POST['telephone']; // not required
����$comments = $_POST['comments']; // required
�����
����$error_message = "";
����$email_exp = '/^[A-Za-z0-9._%-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,4}$/';
��if(!preg_match($email_exp,$email_from)) {
����$error_message .= 'The Email Address you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
��}
����$string_exp = "/^[A-Za-z .'-]+$/";
��if(!preg_match($string_exp,$first_name)) {
����$error_message .= 'The First Name you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
��}
��if(!preg_match($string_exp,$last_name)) {
����$error_message .= 'The Last Name you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
��}
��if(strlen($comments) < 2) {
����$error_message .= 'The Comments you entered do not appear to be valid.<br />';
��}
��if(strlen($error_message) > 0) {
����died($error_message);
��}
����$email_message = "Form details below.\n\n";
�����
����function clean_string($string) {
������$bad = array("content-type","bcc:","to:","cc:","href");
������return str_replace($bad,"",$string);

����$email_message .= "Comments: ".clean_string($comments)."\n";
�����
�����
// create email headers
$headers = 'From: '.$email_from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$email_from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
@mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);�
