I have the following code in a contact form I am building (the phpwcms built in contact form breaks the application)
Code: Select all
[PHP]
if($_GET["to"]> ""){
switch ($_GET["to"]) {
case "president":
$email="email@domain";
$recipient = "The president";
break;
--SNIP--
}
echo(" sw1 = " . $recipient);
}
[/PHP]
[PHP]
echo(" sw2 = " . $recipient);
[/PHP]
can anyone explain why the output is
The variable content has been lost from one line to the next

I am working around it now.
But I can only assume that the variables end up local within functions. Am I close?

heh! Thanks so much for that.
I had just seen that article a short while ago while trying to figure out how to make the contact form produce
Code: Select all
<option value="1">Option one</option>
<option value="2">Option two</option>
<option value="3">Option three</option>
Still havn't done it.
I know the documentation is a work in progress, but it really needs some examples.
