I am new (very) new to PHP and need some help in setting up a simple form to email script to catch data entered into a pre made form. the data i need to catch is 'Name', 'Number', 'EMail' and 'Message'.

I have looked at the following script (which works in it's present form for one of my requirements) but everytime I expand the Mail '$_Request [Name]' etc the email is not sent to my inbox. I host with Streamline.net so i have to have the 'ini and '-froot' code inserted.

<?php
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'root@myemailaddress.co.uk');
mail("Contact Form results", "Name: $_REQUEST[Name]", "From: $_REQUEST[email]", "root@myemailaddress.co.uk", "-froot@myemailaddress.co.uk");header( "Location: http://www.myemailaddress.co.uk/thankyou.html" );?>

Please can anyone help me out with what I need to input to get an email with the four categories above (name, Email, Number and Message) returned?

Thanks

After reviewing the code i have solved the problem.

You can use the following code for streamline.net hosting to send form data using the sendmail function (to email). This should work for any form as long as the field IDs are changed below, email addresses added and you set up a thankyou.html page.

<?php
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'root@youremailladdress.co.uk');
$name = $_REQUEST["Name"];
$number = $_REQUEST["Number"];
$email = $_REQUEST ["EMail"];
$message = $_REQUEST ["Message"];
$name = stripslashes($name);
$number = stripslashes($number);
$email = stripslashes ($email);
$message = stripslashes ($message);
mail('root@youremailaddress.co.uk', "Request from: $name", "<b>Name:</b>". $name."\n". "\n". "<b>Number:</b>". $number."\n". "<b>Email:</b>". $email."\n"."\n"."<b>Message:</b>"."\n". $message, "From: $email", "-froot@youremailaddress.co.uk");
header( "Location: http://www.youremailaddress.co.uk/thankyou.html" );?>
