ok, this is my first attempt at php and this all seemed simple enough
when I started. Well everything's working except one thing.
This page is being passed emailaddress in a query string:
http://www.chaparralmedia.net/brochureRequests/contact.htm?e mailaddress=r_coan%40hotmail.com
How do I get that from contact.htm to a varible in my contact.php
page? I'm trying to make the php script send an email with the form
data to the email address (emailaddress) but I can't seem to get it to
work.
I'm lost... and frustrated.... I spent all day yesterday working on
this. An hour getting the form and my varibles ready, then the rest
of the day trying different things to get this to work. Any help will
be greatly appreciated as I was supposed to have this live
yesterday :~(
Here's my php.
?php
// get posted data into local variables
$EmailFrom = "rcoan [at] chaparralboats.com";
$EmailTo = $_GET['emailaddress'];
$Subject = "Chaparral Boats Lead";
$Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Name']));
$Address1 = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Address1']));
$City = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['City']));
$State = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['State']));
$Zip = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Zip']));
$Phone = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Phone']));
$Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email']));
$ssi = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['ssi']));
$ssx = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['ssx']));
$sig = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['sig']));
$sun = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['sun']));
$dvd = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['dvd']));
// validation
$validationOK=true;
if (Trim($Name)=="") $validationOK=false;
if (Trim($Address1)=="") $validationOK=false;
if (Trim($City)=="") $validationOK=false;
if (Trim($State)=="") $validationOK=false;

if (Trim($Phone)=="") $validationOK=false;
if (Trim($Email)=="") $validationOK=false;
if (!$validationOK) {
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=error.htm\">";
exit;
}
// prepare email body text
$Body = "";
$Body .= "The following person has requested more information on
Chaparral Boats. Please send Brochures and/or DVD's in a timely
manner. If you should require extra materials please contact
Chaparral.";
$Body .= "\n";
$Body .= "Name: ";

$success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>");
// redirect to success page
if ($success){
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=ok.htm\">";
}
else{

}
?>

What can I do to make this happen? I'm at my wits end.... I've
mulled over this simple code for waaayyyy too many hours and I'm in
the same place this morning as I was yesterday morning at this time.
