    Default Php... Help Please

    Okay, I'm brand new to PHP and I'm doing pro-bono work for a friend, and I need help BADLY.

    Everything works EXCEPT the submit button.

    I just want this form to be emailed to an email address.

    Please help me!

    *NOTE: It said the text I entered was too long, so if you can help me, please pm me your email so I can email everything to you.*

    Thanks!

    Code:
    <form action = "process.php" method="post">
...
</form>

    process.php
    PHP Code:
    $to = "email@url.com";
    $subject = "subject of email";
    $from = trim(htmlspecialchars($_POST['email']));
    $message = "";

    // Populates the Message Body to be sent
    foreach($_POST as $key => $value) {
          $message .= trim(htmlspecialchars($key . " - " . $value) . "<br />");
    }


    // Try To Send Email
    if(!mail($to, $subject, $message, "From: $from")) {
         // If failure of send email - print error
         print "Cannot send email";
    else {
     print     "Email Sent! Thanks";
    } 


    // EDIT

    *NOTE: It said the text I entered was too long, so if you can help me, please pm me your email so I can email everything to you.*
    use the [c.ode][/c.ode] tags (without period) to wrap your text and you wont have to worry about text length

    Um,at a quick glance it looks like you copy and pasted the if/else statement block, but forgot to change $username to the correct variable.
    So, when the code got to the final if, the undefined variables evaluated to false. You can prevent mistakes like this setting your error reporting level to E_ALL(check the manual for details)

    I cannot believe I over looked that.

    I went back and changed everything to the correct statements and now it's throwing this


    Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 501 unacceptable mail address in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\nt04\jamestranstech.com\register1.php on line 156

    Code:
     mail ($_POST['EmailAddress'], 'Order Confirmation!', $body, 'From: jennifer.greeney@sbcglobal.net');
    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\nt04\jamestranstech.com\register1.php:156) in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\nt04\jamestranstech.com\register1.php on line 158

    Code:
    		header ('Location: thankyou.php');
		exit();		
	} else {
		$message .= '<p>Please try again.</p>';		
	}

}

// Set the page title and include the HTML header.
$page_title = 'Order Form';
include ('./header.inc');

// Print the error message if there is one.
if (isset($message)) {
	echo '<font color="red">', $message, '</font>';
}
    Any suggestions?

    Headers are sent out before any html or other text on the page.

    All headers must be sent at the top of your script before ANYTHING else is output. Any echo commands or any html blocks outside of the PHP must be after that and only after that.

    I thought so in reading about PHP but I cannot figure out where exactly to put it. Again I'm totally new to PHP.

    Any suggestions on where I should place the header?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Before everything else that might output any html, etc. Simple as that. You may need to reorder some stuff or do something complex, but simply put, you MUST have it before any output.

    As for the mail issue, the answer must be that $_POST['EmailAddress'] is not set correctly. Use a line of "echo $_POST['EmailAddress'];", to check if that was set. (Remove this for the final script, obviously.)
