I have just bought this software, and am reasonably impressed with it. I have completed my first website, but when I preview it, I get a lot of, what i assume is, error code on top of the preview. I cant make heads or tails out of it.

I used a template provided by WYSIWYG, and removed or changed it quite a bit.


I need help. I have done this website for a friend, and want to get this done so I can send it off.

Below is the error code.

"; throw new Exception($error); } $message .= $eol; $message .= "IP Address : "; $message .= $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $message .= $eol; foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) { if (!in_array(strtolower($key), $internalfields)) { if (is_array($value)) { $message .= ucwords(str_replace("_", " ", $key)) . " : " . implode(",", $value) . $eol; } else { $message .= ucwords(str_replace("_", " ", $key)) . " : " . $value . $eol; } } } $body = 'This is a multi-part message in MIME format.'.$eol.$eol; $body .= '--'.$boundary.$eol; $body .= 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8'.$eol; $body .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'.$eol; $body .= $eol.stripslashes($message).$eol; if (!empty($_FILES)) { foreach ($_FILES as $key => $value) { if ($_FILES[$key]['error'] == 0) { $body .= '--'.$boundary.$eol; $body .= 'Content-Type: '.$_FILES[$key]['type'].'; name='.$_FILES[$key]['name'].$eol; $body .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64'.$eol; $body .= 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.$_FILES[$key]['name'].$eol; $body .= $eol.chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($_FILES[$key]['tmp_name']))).$eol; } } } $body .= '--'.$boundary.'--'.$eol; if ($mailto != '') { mail($mailto, $subject, $body, $header); } header('Location: '.$success_url); } catch (Exception $e) { $errorcode = file_get_contents($error_url); $replace = "##error##"; $errorcode = str_replace($replace, $e->getMessage(), $errorcode); echo $errorcode; } exit; } ?>

I think it has to do with the contact form I have done, but I cannot understand where I went wrong, or how to rectify it.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

I think I have worked it out. It seems I had used php for the form, but now that I have taken that back to html, all seems good, but now I dont know if my contact form will work correctly. I have tried it in preview form, but it brings up my own email client (of course), but no subject line or form data is in the body of email, and I cant seem to get that info into the email from the form.

Is there a way i can test this contact form to make sure it all works.

This is the PHP script of the form. If the page uses PHP then you will need to set the page extension to PHP.

I tried setting the pages to php, but then the menu on the main page did not work. It would not find the index page, but when I changed back to html, all the menu items worked.

Is there a way to use php for the contact form, change extenson for the pages to php, and still have the page menu still work?

Oh, and not get the above code to come back.

Which menus are you using?

If you change the page extension then you will have to republish all pages that are referring to that page, otherwise they still have the old link.

I have changed back to php, and republished the page items in the menue setp, but now when I go to preview, it wont open, just asks what to open with. So i set default programme for .php to Chrome, now it just shows code, and not the web page for preview.

This webpage design and webpage construction is full of pit falls.

You cannot "Test" "Preview" php locally it must be uploaded to your host/server for it to work due to the php needs to be processed there.
It will also require that your host supports php if not then then it can't run.
But you can disable PHP in Tools -> Options -> Publish -> Remove PHP code in preview

Thanks for the heads up.

Looks like I need to watch more "how to" youtube videos.

If you do wish to test locally you can install the likes of xampp on your PC/Laptop this will allow testing. Note that the installation of xampp is outwith the support of the forum and it not related to the softwares use in anyway.
