Thanks!!  That worked perfectly.  Neat little function there to check if a
variable exists.  Also I am set to "E_ERROR & ~E_NOTICE" already.

The form loads correctly and then when you click submit goes to the thank
you screen.  The only problem now is that it says that my variables don't
exist that I pass using the form and as a result, won't email them.  When it
gets to the code to email the results the variables like $_POST['name']
won't exist.  What puzzles me is that the frmAction is passed, but none of
the textbox...etc. variables are.  Do I need to add in the form name
somewhere to show where the variables are coming from?
