Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 6 Days Ago by david.tigner Today is a good day. The problem has been solved. Problem was anti-spoofing stuff being added to my email server sometime in February. The clue that was found during testing was I had by chance entered an email address ending in @(one of domains that I own), (not even a real email address) and form emailed successfully. And by changing only 1 line … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 5 Days Ago by Dani You only need to use htmlspecialchars() if the text appears on a website or an HTML email. I’m not sure if you need it if you’re sending plaintext emails. Re: What's your favorite productivity hack outside of coding? 3 Weeks Ago by Dani I don’t think there’s a better answer than that. Productivity hack when not coding are none other than breaks from coding.

What's your favorite productivity hack outside of coding? 4 Weeks Ago by Dani Just a random question to try to get some good discussion going. For me, at least the last handful of years, it's been taking a nice stroll around town. When I first moved to California from NY, I was living in an apartment in the middle of downtown Palo Alto. I absolutely *loved* that, at 3 pm on a Tuesday afternoon, I could go outside, and see… What's the most unexpected hobby or interest you have outside of coding? 4 Weeks Ago by Dani I asked ChatGPT for some interesting conversation starters and it suggested this. However, the more I think about it, the less I can come up with something! I enjoy walks on nature trails, but hiking is *huge* amongst techies in the Bay Area. My husband plays DDR regularly for exercise, but that has a cult following amongst nerdy people. He enjoys … Re: What's the most unexpected hobby or interest you have outside of coding? 4 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim My wife and I consume vast quantities of e-books. Mostly mysteries. But I used to be big into sci-fi. As a teen I loved the (at that time) biggies like Asimov, Heinlein (who has lost his shine the more I learn about him), Blish, Clarke, Herbert, Niven, Ellison, etc. A book I reread every few years is The Flying Sorcerers. It is both a parody/comedy… Re: What's the most unexpected hobby or interest you have outside of coding? 4 Weeks Ago by toneewa A recent interest is the genome mapping of our DNA. The related pathways, vitamins, minerals, and 20 amino acids, associated with each gene. I wish they wouldn't gatekeep such great technologies for people to have a full mapping. E.g., Celiac disease, if you don't have the genes HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8, there's a 99% chance you don't have celiac. … Re: What's the most unexpected hobby or interest you have outside of coding? 3 Weeks Ago by pritaeas Probably the most unexpected (for a die-hard old-fashioned technical programmer) would be Reiki. I feel like since I've been doing this, my master has introduced me into so many things that appear to have been missing from my life. So much is falling into place now, and I have a very different (and better) view of my life now. Re: What's your favorite productivity hack outside of coding? 3 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim Odd that something so basic and obvious needs to be named. Of course, "Pomodoro Technique" is a lot shorter than "go hide in the server room so my boss won't keep interrupting me so I can get some work done" technique. At least that's what I used to call it.

I devote all my free time to her. Let's go with that. :) Pets are always fun.

These kind of topics are great to engage people but not to interact , and interaction is what forums is about.

A hobby with many layers ;-) We've had at least one dog and one cat for more than 40 years, sometimes two of each. There is something very calming about having a cat curled up on your chest while reading (me, not the cat) or a dog (our favourite - Irish Setters) walking by your side, tail wagging (the dog, not me… Re: What's the most unexpected hobby or interest you have outside of coding? 2 Weeks Ago by midnightbastet Reading and gaming mostly.

Let's dive into the code snippet you provided and see if we can identify any potential issues or improvements. Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by Biiim I checked my code and I only found 2 differences, the first is the 2 `use` commands before the require: use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer; use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception; require 'includes/PHPMailer/src/Exception.php'; require 'includes/PHPMailer/src/PHPMailer.php'; require 'includes/PHPMailer/src/SMTP.php';… Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by david.tigner I just discovered some new information on why the online submission pages weren't sending as during some testing I discovered there was a way for the submitted info to be sent. Here it is. I have online submission pages on 4 websites: RadiantNewHorizonHomes.com, RTO-USA.net, SubterraneanSoundStudio.com and RebHellionRecords.com. Each of these 4 … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by david.tigner My 4 domains are all through URL provider IONOS. The question is why does the sender's email address as entered on the front end of the on-line submission form have to have the same ending as the domain name of the site or one of the other 3 or else submitted info fails to send ? Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by david.tigner That's a problem. The email addresses issued for @RadiantNewHorizonHomes.com or 1 of the other 4 are created by me. Unknown parties that submit online forms on one of my domains would not have one of these email addresses. I would want to receive the submitted info from senders of any email address like has been since 2011 until Feb 2024. This is … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by david.tigner There is no making emails "appear" to be from other than the true sender. I'll explain further. Suppose John Smith has an email address of johnsmith@gmail.com. John then goes on to one of my sites, lets say RTO-USA.net, and fills out an online submission form and enters his email address truthfully (johnsmith@gmail.com). This email … Re: Online subission forms not sending emails of submitted info 2 Weeks Ago by david.tigner If John isn't the sender then who is ? Also, continuing from the John Smith example, if John Smith enters his email address as johnsmith@SubterraneanSoundStudio.com or johnsmith@RTO-USA.net (ficticious email addresses) then the submitted info would be emailed to me but if he uses his true email address then it would not.
