I have just uploaded a form created in .php to my yahoo server which on submit sends the form result to email id assigned.

There are actually 4 files. config.php, preview.php, form_proc.php & form.php

Now at client side it seems everything is working fine but at server nothing is working. Iam not recieving any emails on submitting the form. (Script is working fine at other non-yahoo server)

Can someone pls help me. Iam in trouble.

Thanks

Do Yahoo let you send mail from their servers?

They might have it disabled because of abuse.

I wasn't aware Yahoo supported PHP or any kind of server-side scripting language. That would explain it working on a non-Yahoo server.

Does the script output anything to prove that it atleast was running?

If so, talk to Yahoo support about issues with mail()--I can vaguely remember this happening before.

Script is working fine on other servers.

But at yahoo hosting. On form submit it shows the preview of the form filled, validation is working, & finally on submission iam getting confirmation form_proc.php displaying "success" but when I open email i don't find any form results or anything.

make sure you're not using $form_name instead of $_POST['form_name']; (e.g. register_globals is bad and off by default now, or should be!)

TehBooster is probably right.

You could also try error_reporting('E_ALL'); for kicks.
