Mmm, now that is strange…
…the script works on both my test server and my live server…
below is an upgraded version of the script, it checks each value is set and if so it will email you the details (remember to put your email address and website in the script)
if it fails it should tell you exactly what value is missing…
it also performs a little cleanup on each value to help combat naughty people who will try to violate your site with dodgy code…
