What does your PHP code look like? I've got experience with this kind of problem so I might be able to help if I see what you're doing.

session_start(); $errors = ''; $name = ''; $visitor_email = ''; $user_message = '';

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$name = $_POST['name'];
$visitor_email = $_POST['email'];
$user_message = $_POST['message'];
///------------Do Validations-------------
if(empty($name)||empty($visitor_email))
{
    $errors .= "\n Name and Email are required fields. ";   
}
if(IsInjected($visitor_email))
{
    $errors .= "\n Bad email value!";
}
if(empty($_SESSION['6_letters_code'] ) ||
  strcasecmp($_SESSION['6_letters_code'], $_POST['6_letters_code']) != 0)
{
//Note: the captcha code is compared case insensitively.
//if you want case sensitive match, update the check above to
// strcmp()
    $errors .= "\n The captcha code does not match!";
}

if(empty($errors))
{
    //send the email
    $to = $your_email;
    $subject="Information Request Form";
    $from = $your_email;
    $ip = isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) ? $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] : '';

    $body = "A user $name submitted the following contact information:\n".
    "Company Name: $cname\n".
    "Name: $name\n".
    "Phone Number: $phone\n".
    "Email: $email \n".
    "Message: $user_message\n".
    "IP: $ip\n";

    $headers = "From: $from \r\n";
    $headers .= "Reply-To: $visitor_email \r\n";

    $retval = mail ($to, $subject, $body,$headers);

    if( $retval == true )

{ echo "

Message sent successfully...

"; } else { echo "

Message could not be sent...

"; } } }

// Function to validate against any email injection attempts function IsInjected($str) { $injections = array('(n+)', '(r+)', '(t+)', '(%0A+)', '(%0D+)', '(%08+)', '(%09+)' ); $inject = join('|', $injections); $inject = "/$inject/i"; if(preg_match($inject,$str)) { return true; } else { return false; } } echo"<!doctype html>n"; ?> NOTE: 2 values work the name and the message but nothing else works

I notice your html shows a form field labeled 'cname', but no 'name'. In your php, you don't refer to these but use $_POST['name']. Is that the problem?

here is the form if you insist <form method="POST" name="contact_form" action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" >="" <p=""> <label for="name">Company Name:</label>

<label for="name">Phone Number:</label>

<label for="email">Email:</label>

<label for="message" class="">Questions / Comments:</label>
<textarea name="message" rows="8" cols="40"> </form>
