Heh it's late now so I can go into detail and show you some code to do this but it depends on what you name your input's and what method you are submitting form as. The $_POST or since you use it $_REQUEST['name'] depends on the input so for something to fill in that variable you make <input type="text" name="name"> and that variable will have whatever was typed into put in there. Just put all the fields into variables (might have to do some if statements for the radio/dropdown) and then have it mail you all the variables. I will post an example tomorrow.

Sorry for delay, got caught up with some stuff irl. Here is an example form you can use (would need to be adjusted for your page/email:
Code:
<?php
// Get their IP Address
$address = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
//Put your email here to receive the email
$receiver = "youremail@yourdomain.com";
// Check to make sure submit was clicked
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
// Check for the 1 hour delay cookie
if(isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["ContactDelay"])){
$cook = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["ContactDelay"];
}
// Get all posted information
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$body = $_POST['body'];
// Spit out error if they have sent a contact request in last hour
if($cook == "set"){
echo "You have already sent one email in the last hour, please wait one hour before each email sent.";
}else{
setcookie("ContactDelay", "set", time()+3600); /* Expires in 1 hour */
// Mail the information to you
mail($receiver, $subject, "$email a.k.a. $name sent a message from $address saying:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
$body", "From:$email"); //Send Mail, will look like "someone@domain.com a.k.a. bob sent a message from 12.32.44.154 saying: "Their message"" in the email
echo 'Thank you for contacting us, we will reply shortly.'; // Thank-you Message
}
}
?>
then for the html you would put a page that had this form in it:
Code:
<form method="post" action="SCRIPTSNAME.php">
<br>Your Name:
<br><input type="text" name="name" size="45"> <br>
<br>Your Email:
<br><input type="text" name="email" size="45"> <br>
<br>Question:
<br><input type="text" name="subject" size="45"> <br>
<br>Details:
<br><textarea name="body" cols="40" rows="10"></textarea>
<br><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset Form">
</form>
With the radio buttons it will act like above since when you grab the $_POST variable it will only give the value of the one selected. The same works for drop downs. |
