Ok so i've nearly finished my site and i'm left with 2 small annoying problems. The first one is that it doesn't matter whether or not someone checks the terms and conditions checkbox, the form still submits.

The second is that when someone enters a £ sign in a field, when i recieve the email after its submitted the £ sign has a capital A with an arrow above it in front of the £ sign.



Hopefully 2 easy to fix problems, here is the code for my page. I know its bad in many ways but it works and looks fine when uploaded.



<?php
ini_set
('display_errors'1);

extract($_POST);

if (!
file_exists("../config.php")) 
{
$host $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST ];
$path pathinfo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
$file_path $path['dirname'];

exit;
}
include 
"../config.php";


if (
$sendto_email == "changeme@example.com")
{

exit;


if (!
eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,6}$"$senders_email))
{
$error "1";
$info_error .= $lang_invalidemail "<br>"
}
if (empty (
$security_code)) 
{
$error "1";
$info_error .= $lang_nocode "<br>"
}

if (
$terms != 1) {
if (
$senders_name != '') {
$error "1";
$info_error .= "Please accept the terms and conditions and try again"
}
}

elseif (
$security_code != $randomness
{
$error "1";
$info_error .= $lang_wrongcode "<br>"
}
if (
$showlink != "no")

}
if (
$error == "1"
{
$info_notice "<span style=\"color: " $error_colour "; font-weight: bold;\">" $lang_error "</span><br>"

if (empty (
$submit)) 
{
$info_error "";
$info_notice $lang_notice;


function 
Random() 
{
$chars "ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWZYZ23456789";
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$i 0;
$pass '' ;
while (
$i <= 4
{

$tmp substr($chars$num1);

$i++; 

return

}
$random_code Random();

For the terms use:

if(!isset($_POST['terms'])) {
// RUN ERROR CODE

I think you don't have script to redirect the particular page to log in page.
