PHP Form to E-mail

disbrowpr · #1 (**permalink**) 08-04-2008, 08:03 PM

Hello All,

First post here! =D Was wondering about a few things. Hopefully you guys can help me! Having an issue.

So I have an online application for people to fill out, and when they click submit its suppose to send the application to our e-mails. There is the issue. I get the e-mails but I dont get the application.

Here is a link to the application on our site,

DPR Application

Here is the PHP im using...

PHP Code:

  <?php
//--------------------------Set these paramaters--------------------------

// Subject of email sent to you.
$subject = 'Submitted Applicant';

// Your email address. This is where the form information will be sent.
$emailadd = '**edited-out email addresses**';

// Where to redirect after form is processed.
$url = 'http://www.disbrowpr.org/thankyou.htm';

// Makes all fields required. If set to '1' no field can not be empty. If set to '0' any or all fields can be empty.
$req = '0';

// --------------------------Do not edit below this line--------------------------
$text = "Results from form:";
$space = ' ';
$line = '
';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value)
{
if ($req == '1')
{
if ($value == '')
{echo "$key is empty";die;}
}
$j = strlen($key);
if ($j >= 20)
{echo "Name of form element $key cannot be longer than 20 characters";die;}
$j = 20 - $j;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $j; $i++)
{$space .= ' ';}
$value = str_replace('\n', "$line", $value);
$conc = "{$key}:$space{$value}$line";
$text .= $conc;
$space = ' ';
}
mail($emailadd, $subject, $text, 'From: '.$emailadd.'');
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">';
?>

Now the form was created in Dreamweaver CS3. So im hoping that you guys can help me out. Am I doing something wrong, Is there something wrong with my PHP, if so, could you really help me out. Kind of desperate on this one, because we have about 20 people wanting to apply and I can't figure this out. Also I have searched the internet for about a week and couldn't find anything, and im not that great with PHP yet. If possible also, could someone fill in the blanks for me? lol!

Thanks

Most things look OK to me. I made a few changes, mostly minor:

PHP Code:

  <?php
//--------------------------Set these paramaters--------------------------

// Subject of email sent to you.
$subject = 'Submitted Applicant';

// Your email address. This is where the form information will be sent.
$emailadd = '**edited-out email addresses**';

// Where to redirect after form is processed.
$url = 'http://www.disbrowpr.org/thankyou.htm';

// Makes all fields required. If set to '1' no field can not be empty. If set to '0' any or all fields can be empty.
$req = '0';

// --------------------------Do not edit below this line--------------------------
$text = "Results from form:";
$line = '
';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
  if ($req == '1') {
    if ($value == ''){
      echo "$key is empty";
      die;
    }
  }
  $j = strlen($key);
  if ($j > 20) {
    echo "Name of form element $key cannot be longer than 20 characters";
    die;
  }
  $j = 20 - $j;
  $space = ' ';
  for ($i = 1; $i <= $j; $i++) {
    $space .= ' ';
  }
  $value = str_replace("\n", $line, $value);
  $conc = $key.":".$space.$value.$line;
  $text .= $conc;
  $space = ' ';  
}
mail($emailadd, $subject, $text, 'From: '.$emailadd.'');
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">';
?>

But, to help further I'd have to see what you are getting.

BTW: Be sure to remove your email address from posted code to protect you from spammers.

My question was not about where you're entering, but what you're receiving in your email. Make sure to include all the details while stripping out personally-identifying information.

We are a legit Non-Profit business with policies and terms, so were covered on that. Im wanting that entire application in my e-mail. Where when the Human Resources Manager gets it, she can review it and call them if needed for an interview.

Thanks,
Micah

Well, dude, I have asked a simple question and you have simply not answered it, so I can't help you further.

Best wishes!

You wanted to know what I was recieving in my e-mail. I want to recieve the entire application. Or the entire form on the page.

TeraTask · #9 (**permalink**) 08-06-2008, 05:24 PM

I'm not sure where the communication breakdown is, but here's the facts:

I have asked for what you are receiving.

You keep tell me what you want to receive.

Do you see the difference now?

This is all I recieve,

"Results from form:";

Thats about it.

Sorry it took so long to reply to it! =D
