Feedback form problem........

Hi friends,

I am new to PHP with just one month experience. I am facing
a problem with my feedback FORM PHP SCRIPT.

=========================================================

<?php

$txtname = $_POST['txtname'];

$txtemail = $_POST['txtemail'];

$txttel = $_POST['txttel'];

$txtcity = $_POST['txtcity'];

$txtselect = $_POST['txtselect'];

$txtcomments = $_POST['txtcomments'];

$subject = $txtselect;

$from = $txtname

$notes = stripcslashes($notes);

$message = "From: $txtname ($txtemail)n

Tel No: $txttel n

City: $txtcity n

Type: $txtselect n

Comments: $txtcomments n";

mail(&quot; email%40mydomain.com">emailmydomain.com", $subject, $message, $from);

?>

=============================================================

Now the script is working fine, the only thing I want is that when I receive
the email, The FROM section in my Email Inbox should show the name of the
sender , that is 'txtname'

Please tell me where am I wrong.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Waiting for the reply..

from what i can see your code is correct and $from
should be able to pick up the name of the person
assigned in the $txtname variable, however one thing i
noticed is there is a semicolon missing in
$from = $txtname

add the semicolon and see if that makes any difference
OR use $from = $_POST['txtname'];

- As has been pointed out already, check your error log - find out where it is by looking
in php.ini.

- You OVER code. I noted that you pulled stuff in from $_POST and then just moved it to
another variable. Why? It's much simpler to just fetch stuff from $_POST, into the
variables that you're eventually going to use.

- You also had a variable $notes, which merely did a 'stripslashes($notes)' ... BUT you
never assigned any value to $notes - at least in the snippet of code supplied.

- The biggest problems you will run into in PHP, are not ending statements with semi-
colon and misspelling.

Simplified code:

<?php

$from = $_POST['txtname'];
$email = $_POST['txtemail'];
$phone = $_POST['txttel'];
$city = $_POST['txtcity'];
$subject = $_POST['txtselect'];
$comments = stripslashes($_POST['txtcomments']);

$message = "From: $from ($email)n
Tel No: $phonen
City: $city n
Type: $subject n
Comments: $comments n";

mail (" email%40mydomain.com">emailmydomain.com", $subject, $message, $from);

?>

U should Use

$message= $txtname.&quot;<&quot;.$txtemail.";>" ;

or

$message="$txtname<$txtemail&gt;";

instead of

$message = "From: $txtname ($txtemail)n
