This page is being passed emailaddress in a query string:
http://www.chaparralmedia.net/brochureRequests/contact.htm?emailaddre...
How do I get that from contact.htm to a varible in my contact.php
page? I'm trying to make the php script send an email with the form
data to the email address (emailaddress) but I can't seem to get it to
work.
As others have said, this really isn't a good idea. Hard code the
address to which the email will be sent, or, of you have a number of
addresses, code them into an array and pass a reference.
You might find this a bit easier to implement.www.ckdog.co.uk/phmail
It just takes an html form and chucks everything at the address you
specify.

Just to be clear, I know the point of your form is to allow an
untrusted 3rd party to send email to *themselves*, but it /could/ be
used by said person to send email to *anyone* from their spam
database.
too much hassle for you, so I suggest you include in your emails,From the tenor of your post implementing a captcha would probably be
"someone probably you, requested a copy of our broachure.." and add a
way for them to complain to you if it wasn't them. It is illegal in
some places to send unsolicited email to businesses, and you could
find yourself in hot water if your employer comes back to you about
this.
Don't take the - this should have been done yesterday approach -
unless you have at least told your employer about the issues and got
some kind of written assurance. (Extreme perhaps, but it cuts both
ways, they then take ownership of the shoddy job)
Oh and with PHP, unless asp style tags are enabled in the php.ini file
which they usually aren't, you should attempt to use
<?php to open and
?> to close
for portability if nothing else.
