Hey guys,

I did the tut here and it works great! Just wondering, how can i make it so the fields name, and email are required fields?

foreach($_POST as $key => $value) {
$msg .= ucfirst ($key) ." : ". $value . "\n";
}

mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);

if ($forward == 1)
header ("Location:$location");

echo "Thank you for submitting our form. We will get back to you as soon as possible.";

Its still very basic. You will need to add email and message checks.
