nachapol Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Hello, PHP Freaks, So I have my website built with RapidWeaver, and built a PHP form page, and it works fine with a test host. However, I uploaded to Yahoo Small Business and the submissions aren't getting through. I heard that Yahoo is quite problematic when it comes to PHP...I called their help line and they told me that I needed to include the following in my form: <form name="Form0" method="POST" action="http://us.xx.px.webhosting.yahoo.com/forms?login=YahooID&to=mail@domianname.com&confirm=index.html&error=" onSubmit="return checkForm0()"> However, I have 2 php files, application.php and mailer.php. application.php: <?php // Start session. session_start(); // Set a key, checked in mailer, prevents against spammers trying to hijack the mailer. $security_token = $_SESSION['security_token'] = uniqid(rand()); if ( ! isset($_SESSION['formMessage'])) { $_SESSION['formMessage'] = 'Fill in the form below to submit an application.'; } if ( ! isset($_SESSION['formFooter'])) { $_SESSION['formFooter'] = 'A scholarship is also available, please contact us for more details.'; } if ( ! isset($_SESSION['form'])) { $_SESSION['form'] = array(); } function check($field, $type = '', $value = '') { $string = ""; if (isset($_SESSION['form'][$field])) { switch($type) { case 'checkbox': $string = 'checked="checked"'; break; case 'radio': if($_SESSION['form'][$field] === $value) { $string = 'checked="checked"'; } break; case 'select': if($_SESSION['form'][$field] === $value) { $string = 'selected="selected"'; } break; default: $string = $_SESSION['form'][$field]; } } return $string; } ?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;

I was just wondering how I can integrate the code given to me into my existing PHP files. The website is www.northshoreculinaryschool.com and my form is under Curriculum > Application. I can provide the files if anyone wishes. Any help is greatly appreciated! If you can help me through this, you're a lifesaver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweeb Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 That line of code that was given to you negates the need for those PHP form parsing files. It pretty much sends your form results to the Yahoo form parsing script and granted you fill in your email address in that string, it would send you the results. If they told you to do it that way, they may not support mail spooling on their server from customer's scripts. I'm not familiar with Yahoo's hosting, so I can't give a definite on that one.

So I'm guessing I'll need to get rid of the mailer.php somehow? How would I go about integrating that line into my application.php? Is that even possible? Thanks again.
