Error Messaging not working

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I changed the way my form tells the user of an error. But I can't seem to get it to work properly. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Code: // IF NO errors process form
if ($error == "") {

.
. code to email form
.
}
else {
// List errors
echo '<p class="error">'$error'</p>';
$output_form = true;
}
Error messages look like this..

Code: if (empty($first_name) && empty($last_name)) { // IF first and last are empty - REQUIRED FIELD
$error .= 'Please input your FIRST NAME and LAST NAME.<br />';
$output_form = true;
}

if (empty($first_name)) { // IF first only is empty - REQUIRED FIELD
$error .= 'Please input your FIRST NAME.<br />';
$output_form = true;
}
