PHP Mail sending, but incorrectly
Question
my PHP mail is sending mail to me and was working 100% yesterday, but today it sends, but every field is sent as the number one. example the layout is:
Hi my name is, $name. I would like to rent an apartment from, $apartment. My VEI Bank account number is, $account. Will you also check to see if our firm is purchasing from your commercial for the 10% discount? I work at, $cname. Please contact me back via email, $email.
However, the email looks like this:
Hi my name is, 1. I would like to rent an apartment from, 1. My VEI Bank account number is, 1. Will you also check to see if our firm is purchasing from your commercial for the 10% discount? I work at, 1. Please contact me back via email, 1
if you want to look at the code the page is synergy.x10host.com/business.php
thanks in advance!
Edit
<?php $to = 'synergy.mi@veinternational.org'; $subject = 'Commercial Purchase!'; $cname = isset($_POST['cname']); $cemail = isset($_POST['cemail']); $bank = isset($_POST['bank']); $ceo = isset($_POST['ceo']); $sqft = isset($_POST['sqft']); $message = <<<EMAIL Hello, my name is, $ceo, and I am the CEO of $cname.

The reason you are getting 1 as an output is because a boolean (true) is being converted to a string. Boolean true converted to a string in PHP is 1 .
If you look at the PHP manual, isset returns a boolean. If you are wanting to check and see if the value exists before setting it, you could use something like:
$cname = isset($_POST['cname']) ? $_POST['cname'] : "Some other text";
$cemail = isset($_POST['cemail']) ? $_POST['cemail'] : "Some other text";
$bank = isset($_POST['bank']) ? $_POST['bank'] : "Some other text";
$ceo = isset($_POST['ceo']) ? $_POST['ceo'] : "Some other text";
$sqft = isset($_POST['sqft']) ? $_POST['sqft'] : "Some other text";
This way, isset checks to see if $_POST['cname'] is set. If it is set, it uses the value. Otherwise it uses some other default text that you provided.

Isset returns Boolean value. That's why you send '1' in your mail
$cname = isset($_POST['cname']);
$cemail = isset($_POST['cemail']);
$bank = isset($_POST['bank']);
$ceo = isset($_POST['ceo']);
$sqft = isset($_POST['sqft']);
