Hey I followed a tutorial on how to make a php contact form and put the form on my site. Its a contact form with test fields, check boxes, dropdown menu, and radio buttons.
the html code for it is…
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=“Content-Language” content=“en-us”>
<meta http-equiv=“Content-Type” content=“text/html; charset=windows-1252”>
<title>New Page 1</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method=“POST” action=“mailer.php”>
Name:
<input type=“text” name=“name” size=“19”><br>
<br>
E-Mail:
<input type=“text” name=“email” size=“19”><br>
<br>
<input type=“checkbox” name=“check[]” value=“blue_color”> Blue<br>
<input type=“checkbox” name=“check[]” value=“green_color”> Green<br>
<input type=“checkbox” name=“check[]” value=“orange_color”> Orange<br>
<br>
<input type=“radio” value=“yes” name=“radio”> YES<br>
<input type=“radio” value=“no” name=“radio”> NO
<br>
<br>
<select size=“1” name=“drop_down”>
<option>php</option>
<option>xml</option>
<option>asp</option>
<option>jsp</option>
</select><br>
<br>
Message:<br>
<textarea rows=“9” name=“message” cols=“30”></textarea><br>
<br>
<input type=“submit” value=“Submit” name=“submit”>
</form>
</body>
</html>
the php code is…
<?php
if(isset($_POST[‘submit’])) {
$to = “email@hotmail.com”;
$subject = “Form Tutorial”;
$name_field = $_POST[‘name’];
$email_field = $_POST[‘email’];
$message = $_POST[‘message’];
$option = $_POST[‘radio’];
$dropdown = $_POST[‘drop_down’];
foreach($_POST[‘check’] as $value) {
$check_msg .= "Checked: $value
";
}
$body = "From: $name_field
E-Mail: $email_field
$check_msg Option: $option
Drop-Down: $dropdown
Message:
$message
";
echo “Data has been submitted to $to!”;
mail($to, $subject, $body);
} else {
echo “blarg!”;
}
?>
when I fill out the form and click submit a php page comes up saying:
Notice: Undefined variable: check_msg in D:\Inetpub\GARYBMX.COM\mailer.php on line 13
Data has been submitted to email@hotmail.com!
but it does send the email correctly. Can anyone help me get rid of that error message that comes up? also, can anyone tell me make the browser go to a thank you html page when you click submit? Thanks for any help!
