HI Guys

I followed this tutorial on how to create a php form. The problem i have is that when i fill in the info and click send, everything appears well but the info is not being sent to the assigned e-mail. I’m not sure what is wrong. Hopefully someone can catch error. Your help is greatly appreciated.

error\_reporting(E\_ALL);

// Function to display form

```
  function showForm($errorName=false,$errorEmail=false){

  if ($errorName) $errorTextName = "Please enter your name!";

  if ($errorEmail) $errorTextEmail = "Please enter a valid email address!";

   
  echo '&lt;form action="form.php" method="POST"&gt;&lt;table&gt;';

  // Display name field an error if needed

  echo '&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;Name:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input type="text" name="name"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;';

  if ($errorName) echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan='2'&gt;$errorTextName&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;";

  // Display email field an error if needed

  echo '&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;Email:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input type="text" name="email"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;';

  if ($errorEmail) echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan='2'&gt;$errorTextEmail&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;";
   
  echo '&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input type=submit name="send" value="Submit"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;';

  echo '&lt;form&gt;';

  }

if ( isset($_POST["Submit"]) ) {

  if (strlen($name)&lt;3) $errorName = true;

   

  // Display the form again as there was an error

  if ($errorName || $errorEmail) {

  showForm($errorName,$errorEmail);

  } else {
