Just put the variable between the textarea tags:

Code:

<textarea name="message"><?=$smessage?></textarea>

Ok! I've tried that in the same code I posted above and it's not working. I've also tried.

Code:

<textarea name="message"><?$smessage?></textarea>

...but that didn't work either. I'm clueless!

Hmmm...that's so weird :/

I'm clueless on that one. It should work...ha.

The one thing I see is the code you posted above is:

Code:

<textarea name="message"><?$smessage?></textarea>

It should be:

Code:

<textarea name="message"><?=$smessage?></textarea>

If that doesn't work, I'm not entirely sure...

The other thing, and thanks to Twey for pointing this out to me, is in the code you posted, you have:

PHP Code:


//If the name and email are something other than nothing...
if($name != "" & $tel != "" & $email != "" & $message != "" ) {

You should use "&&", not "&":

PHP Code:


//If the name and email are something other than nothing...
if($name != "" && $tel != "" && $email != "" && $message != "" ) {

That doesn't seem to be shooting back any errors...but I would make it right to just, well, have it right.
