Sorry about that Blue. Here is the code:

Code:

<?php

   
 if(($_POST['college']=="")||($_POST['streetaddress']=="")||($_POST['city']=="")||($_POST['zip']=="")||($_POST['state']=="")||($_POST['contactperson']=="")||($_POST['contactemail']=="")||($_POST['phone']=="")||($_POST['fax']==""))
 {
  echo "<html><body><p>The following fields are <strong>required</strong>.</p><ul>";
  if($_POST['college'] == ""){ echo "<li>*College</li>"; }
  if($_POST['streetaddress'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Street Address</li>"; }
  if($_POST['city'] == ""){ echo "<li>*City</li>"; }
  if($_POST['zip'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Zip</li>"; }
  if($_POST['state'] == ""){ echo "<li>*State</li>"; }
  if($_POST['contactperson'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Contact Person</li>"; }
  if($_POST['contactemail'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Contact Email</li>"; }
  if($_POST['phone'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Phone</li>"; }
  echo "</ul><p>Please use your browsers <a href=\"javascript:history.back();\">Back</a> button and fill out these fields.</p></body></html>";
 }
 
 if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

    $to = "my@email.com"; 
    $subject = "Contact Has Registered";
    $college = $_POST['college'];
    $streetaddress = $_POST['streetaddress'];
    $city = $_POST['city'];
    $state = $_POST['date'];
    $contactperson = $_POST['contactperson'];
    $contactemail = $_POST['contactemail'];
	$phone = $_POST['phone'];
    
    $body = "From: $college
    Street Address: $streetaddress
    E-Mail: $contactemail
    Phone Number: $phone
    Contact Email: $contactemail
    Message: $message_field";

    echo "We've recived your contact information $to! We will be in Contact with you shortly!" ;
    
    mail($to, $subject, $body); 
    
//These are the variables for the email

$sendto = $_POST['contactemail']; // this is the email address collected form the form
$ccto = "my@email.com"; //you can cc it to yourself
$subject = "Registration"; // Subject
$message = "Thank you for registering with...";
$header = "From: my@email.com\r\n";

Location.href="attendee.html";

// This is the function to send the email
mail($sendto, $subject, $message, $header);  


} 

?>
<script type=text/javascript>
setTimeout("location.href='index.html'", [3000]);
</script>

Umm....

PHP Code:


location.href='attendee.html';

That would be javascript.
Try this:

PHP Code:


header("location: attendee.html");

EDIT: Put that after you use mail(); and You may want to use conditonals on the mail like: if(mail(...))header("location: attendee.html"); else echo "Error, please try again";

Thanks so much for your help.

The email is generating fine, but I would like to be able to include the information the user enters into the form in the email for their records. How would I do that?

Code:

<?php

   
 if(($_POST['college']=="")||($_POST['streetaddress']=="")||($_POST['city']=="")||($_POST['zip']=="")||($_POST['state']=="")||($_POST['contactperson']=="")||($_POST['contactemail']=="")||($_POST['phone']=="")||($_POST['fax']==""))
 {
  echo "<html><body><p>The following fields are <strong>required</strong>.</p><ul>";
  if($_POST['college'] == ""){ echo "<li>*College</li>"; }
  if($_POST['streetaddress'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Street Address</li>"; }
  if($_POST['city'] == ""){ echo "<li>*City</li>"; }
  if($_POST['zip'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Zip</li>"; }
  if($_POST['state'] == ""){ echo "<li>*State</li>"; }
  if($_POST['contactperson'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Contact Person</li>"; }
  if($_POST['contactemail'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Contact Email</li>"; }
  if($_POST['phone'] == ""){ echo "<li>*Phone</li>"; }
  echo "</ul><p>Please use your browsers <a href=\"javascript:history.back();\">Back</a> button and fill out these fields.</p></body></html>";
 }
 
 if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

    $to = "my@email.com"; 
    $subject = "Contact Has Registered";
    $college = $_POST['college'];
    $streetaddress = $_POST['streetaddress'];
    $city = $_POST['city'];
    $state = $_POST['date'];
    $contactperson = $_POST['contactperson'];
    $contactemail = $_POST['contactemail'];
	$phone = $_POST['phone'];
    
    $body = "From: $college
    Street Address: $streetaddress
    E-Mail: $contactemail
    Phone Number: $phone
    Contact Email: $contactemail
    Message: $message_field";

    echo "We've recived your contact information $to! We will be in Contact with you shortly!" ;
    
    mail($to, $subject, $body); 
    
//These are the variables for the email

$sendto = $_POST['contactemail']; // this is the email address collected form the form
$ccto = "my@email.com"; //you can cc it to yourself
$subject = "Registration"; // Subject
$message = "Thank you for registering with...";
$header = "From: my@email.com\r\n";

// This is the function to send the email
if(mail($sendto, $subject, $message, $header)) header("location: attendee.html"); 
} 

?>
<script type=text/javascript>
setTimeout("location.href='index.html'", [3000]);
</script>

I've noticed that your script is very messy, some variables are being set and not used, $ccto and your using

$_POST['contactemail'];

when its already set to $contactemail
To send the user their entered info, just paste this in (red):

Code:

if(mail($sendto, $subject, $body, $header)) header("location: attendee.html"); 
}

You may also want to add an else statement to EACH of the mail(); functions. If you need help, just ask.

fsd, I don't believe [color] tags work within [php] blocks. I tried to fix your post (edited it) but it didn't change.
