PHP Form sends blank emails

rsrwebs · August 28, 2010

Hi,

I have a mailing sign-up form that works when I try to use it, but I keep getting emails that list the fields (name, email, etc) but no info after them. I just found however, that one can click "send" without filling out the fields. I have a javascript that is supposed to stop it, but its not working.

Here's the whole form page's code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
}
Body {background:#000;
overflow-y:hidden;
}

</style>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body text="#FFFFFF" link="#CCCCCC" vlink="#999999" alink="#FFFFFF">
<script language="JavaScript">

function formCheck(formobj){
// Enter name of mandatory fields
var fieldRequired = Array("Name", "City", 

"State", "Email");
// Enter field description to appear in the dialog box
var fieldDescription = Array("Name", "City", 

"State", "Email");
// dialog message
var alertMsg = "Please complete the following fields:\n";

var l_Msg = alertMsg.length;

for (var i = 0; i < fieldRequired.length; i++){
	var obj = formobj.elements[fieldRequired[i]];
	if (obj){
		switch(obj.type){
		case "select-one":
			if (obj.selectedIndex == -1 || 

obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].text == ""){
				alertMsg += " - " + 

fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
			}
			break;
                       case "text":
		case "textarea":
			if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == 

null){
				alertMsg += " - " + 

fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
			}
			break;
		case "text":
		case "textarea":
			if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == 

null){
				alertMsg += " - " + 

fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
			}
			break;
		case "text":
		case "textarea":
			if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == 

null){
				alertMsg += " - " +
fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
			}
			break;
		case "text":
		case "textarea":
			if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == 

null){
				alertMsg += " - " + 

fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
			}
		}
	}
}

if (alertMsg.length == l_Msg){
	return true;
}else{
	alert(alertMsg);
	return false;
}
}
// -->
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">

     Email:<br>
     <input type="text" name="Email"/>
     <br>
     <br>
<input type="submit" VALUE="Sign Me Up" onClick="alert('Thank you! Your form has been sent.')" />
   </p>
   </div>
</form> 
</form>
</body>
</html>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not seeing any call to the javascript function formCheck(formobj) which would check your form. I'd probably suggest going back to Dynamic Drive and checking the instructions for that particular script -- I'm sure they include some sort of instructions on how to call validation when a user submits the form.

Yep, that was it, lol. Thank you, again.
