form assistance required

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-24-2007, 04:07 AM

Hi All,

I have watched the adding form tutorials and followed the instructions...I think.

My contacts page has a very quick form on it, as I am just testing it works before completing properly and tidying up.

When i fill out the info I get the following error?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/cqpclcrh/public_html/action.php on line 51

Any ideas anyone

On the contact page

You have probably (i cant see the php code) missed the script closing tag: "?>" or only the ">"

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-24-2007, 08:18 AM

Hi Naval,

I will have a look when I get home from work and see if I can see something. I copied the text straight from the tutorial as it said, but in which way can I show you the text to see if anything is missing??

Thanks Darren

Copy the script from your page and post it here

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-24-2007, 01:50 PM

Hi Naval, I tried a few things but to no avail. Here is the script

<?PHP
$mailto = "enquiries@quantum photography.net";
$email = $HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
if ($email == "") {
$email = $mailto;
}
$mailsubj = "Photography Enquiry";
$mailhead = "From: $email\n";
reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if ($key!="submit")
{
$mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
}
}
mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);

Where contact page has action.php is it a difference if Thank you message page is titled Thank You, but of course published as php.

Thanks Darren

I added the ?>, that I seen was missing both to Start of page and alternatively Beggining of body and published both times to no avail. Also noticed in email the space between quantum and photography and fixed that.

But it still wont work......Please help...lol

**navaldesign** · 05-24-2007, 03:47 PM

Please post here the entire page code

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-24-2007, 10:12 PM

Here you go,

<?PHP
$mailto = "enquiries@quantumphotography.net";
$email = $HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
if ($email == "") {
$email = $mailto;
}
$mailsubj = "Photography Enquiry";
$mailhead = "From: $email\n";
reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if ($key!="submit")
{
$mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
}
}
mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);
?>

I can't see anything wrong with your script. On the other hand, line 51 is NOT the php script part. So unless this is NOT the actual code of your action page, there must be something else wrong.

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-25-2007, 11:39 PM

Hi Naval,

I have the contacts page with the fields on it and that is saved as Contacts...with action.php in the required field....I then made a thank you page this is where i added the script and saved that as php not html.....that is the page i added the code from....this is all correct so far isnt it?????

**QuantumPhotography** · 05-26-2007, 01:29 AM

All fixed now, had paged saved as thankyou.php, but also action.php in file manager. So deleted and saved a fresh copy and bingo.

Thanks for helping.

That code is the html code for your thank you page.

I cannot find your action.php page. I suspect that you have the php code in the thankyou.php page. If that is the case- change the action in the form to thankyou.php instead of action.php.
