    <td width="363"><input type="submit" value="submit"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<?

	echo " $name "
?>
</form>
</body>
</html>

now i do know that all the variables are not accounted for, but this is only a test to try to get at least one variables to go through in the email.

thanks boyz

Well, the e-mail comes so it’s something with the vars. It looks ok to me but the $message."
From :". part looks a bit weird to me. You have no var called $message so that might be the problem. Try putting

$message = "";

before the mail action, for example under the part where you declare vars.

If that doesn’t do it, try declaring the $message var entirely before using mail() instead of adding some text to it in the mail action. That would be something like:

$message = "From : all the other stuff here"

and then use mail(stuffgoeshere, $message);

hmm ok well the $message is the variable from the form, but i tried what u advised an no dice. any other ideas? thanks

hey coudl it be that my file permissions are not set to write? i cant change permissions from here so im not sure if thats it

I don’t think so, it doesn’t write anything to a textfile … It’s most likely something with the $message var … I have a working mail script, I can give it to ya if you’d want it and you can modify it to your needs.

yes please do that would be great. however i also downloaded jubba’s script and had the same issue

thanks for the help mang
