Empty Contact Messages

[NBarnum]

I thought I fixed this problem with some scripts but I'm still getting empty contact messages. Can someone look at my code?

I added this to my contact page



----I also added a sendmail.php to stop the empty messages.----


$from_name = $_POST['name'];
$from_email = $_POST['email'];
$phone_number = $_POST['phone'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

$to_name = "Webmaster";
$to_email = "my email address";

$subject = "Website Contact Message Received";
$today = date("n/j/Y g:ia");
$ip_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

$body = "Website Contact Message Received

-----------------------------------------

From: $from_name
E-mail: $from_email
Phone: $phone_number

Message:

$message

--------------------------------------------------------
Message received on $today from $ip_addr
";

mail($to_email, $subject, $message, "From: $from_email");


?>

The code didn't show on my first post. Not sure how to post code. I took out the <'s and the >'s around the script and the !--

 
  script type="text/javascript"
!--
function checkinput() {
var ret = false; // set to false unless the criteria is met
if (document.formname.name.value == "") {
alert("Please enter your name before submitting the form. Thanks.");
} else if (document.formname.message.value == "") {
alert("Please enter a message before submitting the form. Thanks.");
} else {
ret = true; // message and from_name are not blank, continue with submit
}
return ret;
} // end function checkinput
//--
  /script
