Hi

A newbie question using php.

I have a form which is generated from a database system.

It is a form to reply to an email.

The database system also creates a text file which has in it the body of the email. It finds the mime part and creates a separate file.

This form then reads the text file and puts the contents into the body field on the form.

Unfortunately the message gets posted at the top of the form and not in the body field.

Could someone point out where I am going wrong.

Thanks for helping me.

2 things:

1. You have 2 <body> tags when there should only be one.

2. If your $body variable contains double quotes anywhere in it, it will mess with the double quotes from the value of your hidden field, which will make it end the value string, and assume the rest of it is another value. Since its insde a table it can;t know where to place the code and moves it all up to before the table.

So you should fix your HTML coding, and then run your $body variable through htmlspecialchars() so it can escape the quotes and not wreak havoc with the rest of the code.
