A few quick newbie questions

[iLLuSi0nS]

I have used formmail my whole life, but after I found this amazing script I had to get with the times.

I have a form text box's. I have setup everything right. I have a

realname
phone
email
mesg

I get the email after submittion, but for some reason, the email subject is from "Nobody [nobody@server.hostname.com"

and the email box is empty. The realname and mesg come in fine, but the phone is not even in the email and the email: is blank eventhough i had filled out that field on the site.

When I put the required fields for email and name, it would always give me an error about how the email field is required and needs to be filled out, BUT I AM FILLING IT OUT. AHHHHH

This is what my HTML looks like

<form method="post" action="http://www.mysite.com/contact_us.php" name="SampleForm">
    <input type="hidden" name="env_report" value="REMOTE_HOST,REMOTE_ADDR,HTTP_USER_AGENT,AUTH_TYPE,REMOTE_USER">
    <input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="myemailaddress-mydomain.com" />
    <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Contact Us Form" />
    <input type="hidden" name="good_url" value="thanks.html" />
    <input type="hidden" name="bad_url" value="thanks.html" />

                                                    <table>
                                                      <tr>
                                                        <td>
                                                              <div>Name:<br />
                                                                <input type="text" name="realname" />
                                                              </div>
                                                          <div style="padding-top:15px;">Phone:<br />
                                                          <input type="text" name"phone"/>
                                                          </div>
                                                        <div style="padding-top:15px;">Email:
                                                          <br />
                                                        <input type="text" name"emailaddress" />
                                                        </div></td>
                                                          <td style="padding-left:10px;"><div>Message:

                                                          </div>
                                                          <div style="padding-top:5px" align="right">
                                                            <input type="image" src="images/send.gif"  width="33" height="11" />
                                                          </div>
                                                                <div class="tar"></div></td>
                                                      </tr>
                                                    </table>
                                </form>

Hi,

The field name for the user's email address must be named "email". You have it named "emailaddress".

Ginger, IM glad you noticed that, but unfortunately i changed that because i thought "email" wasnt working, but regardless of if I put "email" or "emailaddress" or even "bonzana" it still wont come through.

[ginger23]

Do you have a valid email address specified in "recipients"? Also, have you put that email address in $TARGET_EMAIL inside the script?

Another thing I noticed in your form code that you posted is that the email field is missing the "=" sign before the field name; same thing with the phone field.

All of these things need to be correct for it to work as you want it to.

YAYY!!! it was the "=" sign. It works great! Thanks ginger, hey ginger, are you as good looking as the ginger on gilligan's island? lol

Also, is there a way of getting rid of the x: 15 y: 8 in the email you get. I understand its where the user click on the submit button, but i dont really need that info. How can I get rid of it?
