Subject: Field missing from email/required fields not checked |

| Couple of problems I could do with some help on:
Form location: www.coolcampervans.com/sales23.shtml
I've probably made a simple mistake somewhere but I can't spot it!
The "Date" field is not included in the received email.
Although "Date", "Budget", and "email" are configured as required, only "Budget" is flagged as missing on the error page when the fields are left blank.
Appreciate any help!

Sorry, I forgot to give you the address of the form.
It is http://www.thecreditcardclub.com/application.html
I read a previous post where someone mentioned that upgrading the script made a difference, but please advise me on how to go about this.
Thanks again! :) | |

| Hi again...
I just wanted to give you a few details that I have been able to get from the ISP.
It is being hosted on a Linux server, and powered by Ensim WEBppliance PRO 3.5.
They also say that scripts cannot be CHMOD 777 (as discussed at http://support.planetess.com/index.php?sid=469&aktion=artikel&rubrik=008002&id=38&lang=en )
I look forward to hearing from you when you have a moment.
Thanks again!!
(sorry to be such a nuisance) | |

It could be one of the following problems.
1. When you submitted the form, Your ISP's server was backed up so it took longer than usual to get the mail. This can be a common problem. If this is it you will usually get the mail anywhere from minutes to hours after submitting.
2. Your ISP has filters set to NOT allow you to receive the SAME LOOKING email multiple times from the same recipient AND SOMETIME DIFFERENT RECIPIENT'S. This is a common problem with providers like MSN. The best fix if this is a problem would be to use the email you get with your web hosting (UNLESS THEY ARE THE PROBLEM), or I personally Like Yahoo.
3. Yahoo and others however when getting the same message multiple time will sometimes start sending it to your BULK MAIL folder. So that may be the problem, it just did not come to your inbox, so it looks as if you didn't get it but it is really in your bulk mail folder.
THESE are the main reason's I can think of, I am sure there could be others, what I would do is check with your email provider. They should be able to give you a clear answer.

on the form you have:
<input type="hidden" name="required" value="email">
<input type="hidden" name="required" value="Date">
<input type="hidden" name="required" value="Budget">
***IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS:
<input type="hidden" name="required" value="email,Date,Budget">
