Honey Pot results not working. I need a PHP nudge in the right direction

PHP
1

Hi Everyone

I am trying to cobble together a contact form with a Honey Pot Spam protector. Newby here. I’m basing it off of the following link but I am trying to tweak it so that it will do what I want it to do.

http://devgrow.com/simple-php-honey-pot/

You can see the contact form here http://www.discovermassagespa.com/contact.html.

Please do not look at the php code for http://www.discovermassagespa.com/contactus.php as I am changing that. Please refer to the following code.

The following is the HTML and the CSS that is relevant to the Honey Pot.

<p class="robotic" id="pot">
            <label>If you're human leave this blank:</label>
            <input name="robotest" type="text" id="robotest" class="robotest" /></p>

.robotic {
  display: none;
}

I’m not sure what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance for your help.

if (isset($_POST[“submit”])) {

        &lt;input name="[COLOR="#FF0000"]robotest[/COLOR]" type="text" id="robotest" class="robotest" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

PS: You cannot have indentations in HEREDOC string closures. The first character on the line must be the “E” in “EOD;” (tabs count as characters).

Thanks for your help. I am so green at this stuff. But I am learning quickly.

I made some changes but I am still having some issues.

A couple of things are happening.

It appears


$robotest = <<<EOD

is failing. I tested the honey pot and filled it out like a robot. it completely ignores it and renders (if that is the right word) the html page that says “Someone will be in touch with you soon”. It will send the results of the field to the right email (success) however the auto responder is not working as well.

Any ideas?
