Newbie question

Post by lvninjas »

Firstly, let me say I know very little about PHP coding, but can follow the basics, such as email forms.

That being said, My Email form isn't working properly... http://www.designsatwork.com/the11group/contact.php OR .html extension; I have 2 versions, both with the same conclusion. My processing (?) file, http://www.designsatwork.com/the11group/sendemail.php and the config file is in the admin folder, cryptically called config.php http://www.designsatwork.com/the11group ... config.php

All parameters look like they work, even concluding to the thanks.html page. I never receive an email, however. :banghead:

Please feel free to chide, mock or giggle, as long as you with the knowledge can help! (I know you will be good natured, and I am not a sensitive flower)
Please help... I haven't even gotten to the Captcha yet, but have my accesscode in place on the form.

It would help us (and in turn you) a lot more if you can paste the code when you seek help :) When I visit your page i don't see the php code as it is already being parsed so the url didn't help at all.

Touche, good point and a highlight to my newness to this.
Thanks for your patience and assistance.

Could it be that I am on an incompatible OS on the server? PHP is universal, right?
