I have this script.



<?php
/*
This first bit sets the email address that you want the form to be submitted to.
You will need to change this value to a valid email address that you can access.
*/
$webmaster_email = "aflorkoski6821@tvcconnect.net";

/*
This bit sets the URLs of the supporting pages.
If you change the names of any of the pages, you will need to change the values here.
*/
$feedback_page = "feedback_form.html";
$error_page = "error_message.html";
$thankyou_page = "thank_you.html";

/*
This next bit loads the form field data into variables.
If you add a form field, you will need to add it here.
*/
$email_address = $_REQUEST['email_address'] ;
$name = $_REQUEST['name'] ;
$comments = $_REQUEST['comments'] ;
/*
The following function checks for email injection.
Specifically, it checks for carriage returns - typically used by spammers to inject a CC list.
*/
function isInjected($str) {
$injections = array('(\n+)',
'(\r+)',
'(\t+)',
'(%0A+)',
'(%0D+)',
'(%08+)',
'(%09+)'
);
$inject = join('|', $injections);
$inject = "/$inject/i";
if(preg_match($inject,$str)) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}

// If the user tries to access this script directly, redirect them to the feedback form,
if (!isset($_REQUEST['email_address'],$_REQUEST['name'])) {
header( "Location: $feedback_page" );
}

// If the form fields are empty, redirect to the error page.
elseif (empty($email_address) || empty($comments)) {
header( "Location: $error_page" );
}

// If email injection is detected, redirect to the error page.
elseif ( isInjected($email_address) ) {
header( "Location: $error_page" );
}

// If we passed all previous tests, send the email then redirect to the thank you page.
else {
mail( "$webmaster_email", "Feedback Form Results",
$comments, "From: $email_address" );
header( "Location: $thankyou_page" );
}
?>



I added the part to request the name.Thats all I added.It seems to qork as the thank you message comes up but the email only contains the from email address then the comments.

I am trying to get the name I added in the for to also be sent.

with name field:
http://www.web-user.info/css/2/feedback_form2.html

without name field:
http://www.web-user.info/css/2/feedback_form.html

I am planning to add more fields to this but until I can add one and get it to work I am hesitant to do more-lol

Just edit the headers argument to include the name field, with the email address in tags to indicate that it is the one to reply to.



mail( "$webmaster_email", "Feedback Form Results",
$comments, "From: $_REQUEST[name] <$email_address>" );

I am very new to php and don't know what/where the headers arguement is or how it works.

Can you be more specific please .

Thanjs for your help Jshor.

I found a different script that I was able to easily figure out on my own.
