    sendmail.php problem

    I'm new at using php.

    I am creating a basic html "contact us" form using php to send the data securely via email.

    I posted the form and the screen turns blank when I hit the "submit" button.

    Server is running PHP 5.2 with Mysql 5 and Apache 2
    Viewing the page with Mozilla Firefox Browser 2.0
    Site is wrapped in a custom tailored CMS based on Cake

    Code is below...

    sendmail.php code...
    [CODE=php]
    <?php
    if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) {
    $errors = array();
    if (empty($_POST['name'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter your name.';
    }
    else {
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['email'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter an email address.';
    }
    else {
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['company'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You enter company name.';
    }
    else {
    $company = $_POST['company'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['title'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter a title.';
    }
    else {
    $title = $_POST['title'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['phone'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not your phone number.';
    }
    else {
    $phone = $_POST['phone'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['projname'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter your project name.';
    }
    else {
    $projname = $_POST['projname'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['projectpurp'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter your project\'s purpose.';
    }
    else {
    $projectpurp = $_POST['projectpurp'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['operatingsys'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter operating system.';
    }
    else {
    $operatingsys = $_POST['operatingsys'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['projdescript'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter a proj description.';
    }
    else {
    $projdescript = $_POST['projdescript'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['howfindsite'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter how you found our site.';
    }
    else {
    $howfindsite = $_POST['howfindsite'];
    }
    if (empty($_POST['deploytimefram e'])) {
    $errors[] = 'You did not enter a deployment timeframe.';
    }
    else {
    $deploytimefram e= $_POST['deploytimefram e'];
    }

    if (empty($errors) ) { // No errors happened
    $emailmessage = "The following customer inquiry was made:\n
    $name\n$email\n $company\n$titl e\n$phone\n$pro jname\n$projpur purp\n$operatin gsys\n$projdesc ript\n$howfinds ite\n$deploytim eframe";
    mail( "name@name. com, name12@name.com ", "Identifind er Customer Inquiry",
    "$emailmessage" , "From: $email" );
    header( "Location: /identifinder_co ntact_us/identifinder_co ntact_form_than k_you" );
    }
    else {
    foreach ($errors as $msg) {
    echo '<li> '.$msg.'</li>';
    }
    }
    }
    ?>

      Heya, kgrenier12. Welcome to TSDN!

      My initial guess would be that your script is hitting an error, but it's not set up to display errors (the usual suspect when a script turns up blank). Check out this article:

          My apologies for not doing that BEFORE I sent my message in.

          I changed my php settings inside sendmail.php and still receive a blank screen.
          I'm hesitant to change the global php ini settings because it's a production site.

          I did notice that my file properties on the server are "RW" only not "RWX" do you think that would contribute to the problem? I am currently trying to reset the file property settings inside ftp but have been unsuccessful.

          Thanks for your help,
          Kgrenier12
