[Pro] Having trouble with a PHP feedback form

Hi there,

I am having trouble with a very simple PHP feeback form on a website. All I need it for is so that visitors can add their email address to our mailing list. I have used this before with no problem but for some reason it isn’t working at all on this site. I’ve also created separate error pages (server, email, not in domain) but this hasn’t helped me solve the problem as it just redirects to the PHP script item.

Any help with this ridiculously simple problem would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks

Joe

Can you post a link to the page with the form? I don’t see any forms on this site, although I haven’t really dug through every page. When you say you’ve had this working elsewhere – was that on the exact same server?

It’s a single text field underneath the menu bar on the left hand side.
The last time I used it was on a different server but when I looked at my 123-reg hosting it states that it supports php5.

Can you post the contents of your index-go.php file on Gist or Pastie and paste the link to it here (all by itself on a single line, like this:)

The form looks to be set up correctly, for what it’s worth.

Please put the following in a plain text file (use CodeWrangler or another programmer’s text editor, not Word or Pages or a word processing application) and name that file something cryptic like sdfsdaf.php (the .php is the only part that has to be that precisely). Upload the file into your Web root (next to the index.html file) and visit it in a browser: http://example.com/sdfsdaf.php

See what version of PHP you are running. If you want me to look it over, please e-mail me off-list with the actual link. If you’re not using mail to interact with this list, click on my name in the header of any message I’ve posted here to get to my contact information. If you are using mail, Control-click on my name in the From: header and choose Reply to Sender from the contextual menu.

This server does not appear to support PHP. You can go ahead and delete this file, since you posted its URL to the whole world and his dog. Ask your hosting provider to enable PHP5 on this server. The rest should come naturally.
