When they hit submit they go to a confirmation screen using
Your Email - <?php echo $_POST["email"];?>
type lines to show what the user entered. I want them to then be able to hit submit again to email the results. My problem is that it seems when i use the echo to get to the confirmation screen i can't then use it again to get the information to mail.
what I often do for reposting a form is to write the variables into hidden form elements. Then when they repost the variables are available.
Your Email - <?php echo $_POST["email"];?>
Your Name - <?php echo $_POST["fullname"];?>
<form name="someform" method="post" action="mailit.php">
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="<?php echo $_POST["email"];?>">
<input type="hidden" name="fullname" value="<?php echo $_POST["fullname"];?>">
<input type="submit" value="send it now">
</form>
something like that
bingo, thanks man! now, of course, my problems don't stop there....
i've looked around but haven't found a definitive answer on the easiest way to make fields required on a php form.
oh, and when i get the emails they are from "apache" and email address of "apache@ensim.example.com"...what can i do about that?

I have a MUCH bigger form issue, but I'll work on it for another day before enlisting help here!
Thanks!
