Ok, I am experiencing a problem where I get the following error:
The action which I am trying to do is take a name and e-mail address from a form on "base_list.php" and input it into a database using "base_app_process.php" so that I will be able to access the details to add to a mailing list manually. I am also using the "base_app_process.php" file to send a confirmation e-mail to the user and display a confirmation web-page.
I am new to PHP, so sorry if any of the coding is messy.
Any help would be gratefully recieved.
base_list.php
I have erased part of this before the form section as it is just text and links in a table and not a part of the bit I am interested in - and I am over the character limit for this post.
base_app_process.php
If you need any more information to help me, just ask. Thanks in advance.
