this has a different structure from what you showed us in your email earlier
today (Sunday, October 4, 2009 9:25 AM). this script has the structure:
<?php
$erros=array();
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
...
if (!$erros)
{
...
// all done, now redirect:
Redireciona("gracias.html");
}
else
{
echo ("Sorry. The form couldn't be processed.");
}
}
?>
as i said before, a script will execute regardless. but this new script
fragment does nothing except initialize $erros if $_POST['submit'] is not
set (e.g. if the user requests the page without POSTing the form). i don't
see a problem. this script also has the three cases i described clearly
separated.
now, what was your question?
