PHP and MySQL form problems
This is my first post and I'm just starting out, but the information I've seen so far seems very helpful..on to the question. I'm working on a project to send a php form to me via email, but to validate the form and insert the information into a MySQL database first. The database is setup via phpMyAdmin and I've had various parts working here and there, but I can't seem to get more than one record to insert into the database and have the entire processing work properly. Also, when using $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] on my server, it brings up an error even though the form and database reside on our server. Here's what I've got so far:
<?
@extract($_POST);
$fname = stripslashes($fname);
$lname = stripslashes($lname);
$phone = stripslashes($phone);
$fax = stripslashes($fax);
$email = stripslashes($email);
$message = stripslashes($message);
// initialize a variable to
// put any errors we encounter into an array
$errors = array();
// test to see if the form was actually
// posted from our form
$page = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if(!ereg($page, $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']))
$errors[] = "Invalid referer\n";
// check to see if a name was entered
if (!$_POST['fname'])
// if not, add that error to our array
$errors[] = "First Name is required";
if (!$_POST['lname'])
$errors[] = "Last Name is required";
if (!$_POST['phone'])
$errors[] = "Phone Number is required";
if (!$_POST['fax'])
$errors[] = "Fax Number is required";
if (!$_POST['email'])
$errors[] = "Email Address is required";
if (!$_POST['message'])
$errors[] = "Please leave a message or comments or tell us your intended use of the download.";
// if there are any errors, display them
if (count($errors)>0){
echo "<strong>ERROR:<br>\n";
foreach($errors as $err)
echo "$err<br>\n";
} else {
// no errors, so we continue
}
$link = mysql_connect("host", "username", "password");
mysql_select_db("database_name");
$query = INSERT INTO table_name VALUES ('', 'fname', 'lname', 'phone', 'fax', 'email', 'message');
$result = mysql_query($query);
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
foreach ($line as $value)
{
print "$value\n";
}
}
mysql_close($link);
$mailTo = "email_address@here.com";
$msgSubject = "Tools Download Form Results";
$msgBody = "$fname\n, $lname\n, $phone\n, $fax\n, $email\n, $message\n";
mail ($mailTo, $msgSubject, $msgbody);
header ("Location: contactform.php");
?>
Any help would be great. Thanks.
