Form process problems!

General PHP Help
#1

I am very, very new to using any sort of php, I am only somewhat experienced in html and css. I have a form I made in html, but am struggling with my process page. (php) The page works, it emails forms to me, however, I am not getting the drop down list selection (subject) nor am I receiving the (picture) attachment. I am looking to see if someone could help me out on this, I apologize if my code looks like butt, but it’s what I got. :slight_smile: ???

Thank you,

Jared

<?php

if(isset($_POST[‘email’])) {

$email_to = "support@******.com";

$email_subject = "Contact Form";

$name = $_POST['name'];

$email = $_POST['email'];

$tel = $_POST['tel'];

$subject = $_POST['subject'];

$attachment = $_POST['attachment'];

$description = $_POST['description'];

 

$email_message = "Contact request details below.\n\n";

 

function clean_string($string) {

  $bad = array("content-type","bcc:","to:","cc:","href");

  return str_replace($bad,"",$string);

}

 

$email_message .= "Name: ".clean_string($name)."\n";

$email_message .= "Email: ".clean_string($email)."\n";

$email_message .= "Phone: ".clean_string($tel)."\n";

$email_message .= "Subject: ".clean_string($subject)."\n";

$email_message .= "Picture: ".clean_string($attachment)."\n";

$email_message .= "Description: ".clean_string($description)."\n";

$headers = 'From: '.$email."\r\n".

'Reply-To: '.$email."\r\n" .

Here is an article to read. I am short on time, but you are missing some needed parts for the attachment to function. I would also recommend looking into PHPMailer for the ease of doing complex emails.
