    <p>I'm sure I'm just missing something really simple, because I'm burned out from coding. Can someone please spot what the problem is? When submitted the form emails the info, but none of the variables (like firstname, lastname, etc) are being included in the email.</p> <p>All I get is this:</p> <p>From:<br> Phone: -- Call Back:<br> Best time to call:<br> Message: </p> <p>If you can find what the problem is - I will be very thankful.</p> <p>Here is the form HTML:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form action="mail.php" method="POST" id="main_form" onSubmit="this.reset();"&gt; &lt;p&gt;First Name&lt;/p&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="firstname" size="93" style="width:475px; float:left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p&gt;Last Name&lt;/p&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="lastname" size="93" style="width:475px; float:left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p&gt;Email&lt;/p&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="email" size="93" style="width:475px; float:left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p&gt;Confirm E-mail&lt;/p&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="confirmemail" size="93" style="width:475px; float:left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p&gt;Contact Number&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type = "text" id = "Ph1" name="Ph1" size =" 3" maxlength = "3" onkeyup = "validate(this,2)"&gt;- &lt;input type = "text" id = "Ph2" name="Ph2" size =" 3" maxlength = "3" onkeyup = "validate(this,3)"&gt;- &lt;input type = "text" id = "Ph3" name="Ph3" size =" 4" maxlength = "4" onkeyup = "validate(this,3)"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;script type = "text/javascript"&gt; function validate(which,next) { var val = which.value; val = val.replace(/[^0-9]/g,""); // strip non-digits which.value = val; next = "Ph" + next; if (val.length == 3) { // field completed document.getElementById(next).focus() } } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;p&gt;Request Phone Call:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:'Open Sans', serif; font-size:14px;"&gt;Yes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input type="radio" value="Yes" name="call"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:'Open Sans', serif; font-size:14px;"&gt;No:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input type="radio" value="No" name="call"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Best time to contact:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:'Open Sans', serif; font-size:14px;"&gt;Morning:&lt;input type="radio" value="Morning" name="calltime"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:'Open Sans', serif; font-size:14px;"&gt;Afternoon:&lt;input type="radio" value="Afternoon" name="calltime"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:'Open Sans', serif; font-size:14px;"&gt;Evening:&lt;input type="radio" value="Evening" name="calltime"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Message&lt;/p&gt;&lt;textarea name="message" rows="6" cols="67"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input class = "_submit"type="submit" value="SUBMIT" style="width: 128px; height: 36px; font-family: 'Pathway Gothic One', serif; font-size: 28px; border-radius: 0px; border-width: 0px; color: #FFF; background-color: #FFCA04; float:left; margin-top: 10px;"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is the mail.php</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; $lastname = $_POST['lastname']; $email = $_POST['email']; $confirmemail = $_POST['confirmemail']; $phone1 = $_POST['Ph1']; $phone2 = $_POST['Ph2']; $phone3 = $_POST['Ph3']; $call = $_POST['call']; $calltime = $_POST['calltime']; $message = $_POST['message']; $formcontent=" From: $firstname $lastname \n Phone: $phone1-$phone2-$phone3 \n Call Back: $call \n Best time to call: $calltime \n Message: $message"; $recipient = "MyEmail@domain.com"; $subject = "YOU HAVE A MESSAGE FROM WEBSITE CONTACT PAGE"; $mailheader = "From: $email \r\n"; mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!"); echo "Thank You!" .

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
