I'm trying to set up the above page so that the visitor has to complete certain fields. I've managed to make it so that the error message comes up for each field but now even if they complete the field the error message comes up. I'm guessing that i have to add some code at the bottom of my form which says if field completed etc etc but i don't know how to do this bit. What's the code i need?
I also have no idea how to post code in this forum so will just show the relevent bits.

if ($senders_name != "=")
{$error = "1";
$info_error .= $lang_noname . "<br>";}

if ($company != "=")
{$error = "1";
$info_error .= $lang_nocompany . "<br>";}

if ($senders_name != "=")
{$error = "1";
$info_error .= $lang_notrade . "<br>";}

if ($telephone != "=")
{$error = "1";
$info_error .= $lang_notelephone . "<br>";}

{
if ($checkdomain == "yes")
{
$sender_domain = substr($senders_email, (strpos($senders_email, '@')) +1);
$recipient_domain = substr($sendto_email, (strpos($sendto_email, '@')) +1);
if ($sender_domain == $recipient_domain)
{
print "Sorry, you cannot send messages from this domain ($sender_domain)";
exit;
}

Hi

Having read this and your previous posts I rather think you are trying to take a short cut by asking members of the forum to code your page for you!

This may get the job done quickly if they are generous enough to do so, but at the end of the day you will end up with something that you simply do not understand the function of.

What you really should be doing is looking at perhaps increasing your understanding of PHP so that you can look objectively at the job in hand.

There are a good many examples and tutorials about forms on the web which will explain the how and why of their function.

The members of this forum will of course be happy to assist you when you encounter a problem, this is how many of us learnt in the first place. I feel sure that simply asking for someone to write the code for your page will not be seen as "assisting" you.

These are just my views on the situation and in no way meant to discourage you. There is a good feeling about creating your own PHP code that works and works well!

Regards

I'm not asking for someone to write my code for me. All i needed to know was where i was going wrong and point me in the right direction. I've actually done what i wanted now by finding tutorials and adapting them to my page. The simple fact of the matter is that i just needed to get my site operational as quickly as possible so don't really have time to go into all the ins and outs of web design.

I do appreciate where you are coming from and i thank everyone for any help i've been given so far.
