I use go daddy as a host....

here is my siteGet Paid For Online Surveys

You will notice i have a form at the top to capture an email and name.....here is the posting .php file

PHP Code:

<?php

$name = $_REQUEST['name']; 
$email = $_REQUEST['email']; 
$paidsurveys = $_REQUEST['paidsurveys']; 
$mysteryshopping = $_REQUEST['mysteryshopping']; 
$incentives = $_REQUEST['incentives'];
$focusgroups = $_REQUEST['focusgroups'];


$to = "info@takesurveysonlinegetpaid.com";
$from = "$email";

$subject = "Web Lead";

$body = "

Name: $name

Email: $email

Paid Surveys: $paidsurveys
Mystery Shopping: $mysteryshopping
Incentives: $incentives
Focus Groups: $focusgroups

";

$headers = "From: $email";

mail ($to, $subject, $body, $headers);

header ("Location: http://www.takesurveysonlinegetpaid.com/take-paid-online-surveys");

?>

Everything was flawless up until 2 days ago...now no emails get sent....except today I finally got 1 to go through..

I really am at my wits end. any advice?

I don't see any mistake. Did you get any error report. Only what I can suggest is little bit different system of coding. I have some problems when I use variable inside double quotes. For example:

$name ="shivaji";
myName = "My name is $name and surname is disabled";

The better way is:

$name ="shivaji";
myName = "My name is" . $name . "and surname is disabled";

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the chunk of code you 'corrected' (other than you forgot the $ on myName in both cases). What problem did you have with variables in double quotes?

@the OP

I don't see anything wrong with your code or your form that would prevent emails from being sent. Has this problem persisted? Are you certain that the emails aren't being filtered as spam?

First off, thank you both for your response.....i have tested the form maybe 100 different times...of that only 1 email came through...prior to tuesday I would recieve emails all day from viewers ( however who knows how many never made it)

I am thinking it must be an issue with go daddy, so I called, then "ran their own scripts" and said its not them.....would this code work on php.5.xx thats what my server says is loaded, its also on linux is that helps.

i am really desperate for a fix and designers are quotting me at 50-100 bucks to fix, I hate to pay that when it KNOW the form works! anything else?

I would test out some other mail scripts. If they work comparing the code might help you resolve the issue.

Null thanks for the heads up, listen man, I am in irvine also, you seem to be pretty respected around here, would you be interested in helping me work on this? I will buy ya dinner and throw in like 20 bucks to get it working, I really have no idea how to even start this.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the chunk of code you 'corrected' (other than you forgot the $ on myName in both cases).

Right, I am forget $, just type feller.

What problem did you have with variables in double quotes?

I haven't some example but I find it more faster to put all content in single quotes (especially HTML tags) and separate variables with dots, then write lot of escapes.
