I have this form page: http://webauthorsgroup.com/raa/contacform/index3.html which is producing an "empty field(s)" error, yet I can't pinpoint where this error is occurring.
I am using the following php form:
<?php
if($_POST)
{
$to_Email = "email@email.com"; //Replace with recipient email address
$subject = 'Web Form'; //Subject line for emails
//check if its an ajax request, exit if not
if(!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) AND strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) != 'xmlhttprequest') {
//exit script outputting json data
$output = json_encode(
array(
'type'=>'error',
'text' => 'Request must come from Ajax'
));
die($output);
}
//check $_POST vars are set, exit if any missing
if(empty($_POST["userFirst"]) || empty($_POST["userLast"]) || empty($_POST["userPhone"]) || empty($_POST["userEmail"]))
{
$output = json_encode(array('type'=>'error', 'text' => 'Input fields are empty!'));
die($output);
}

You are not consistent with some of your variable naming. Looking at your HTML source you have these variables:
var user_First = $('input[name=First]').val();
var user_Last = $('input[name=Last]').val();
var user_Company = $('input[name=Company]').val();
var user_Address = $('input[name=Address]').val();
var user_City = $('input[name=City]').val();
var user_State = $('input[name=State]').val();
var user_Zip = $('input[name=Zip]').val();
var user_Phone
Looking at your code you are looking for variables without the underscore:
here:
$user_Company = filter_var($_POST["userCompany"], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
Also: having both user_First and userFirst is pretty confusing, you might want to clean that up for future debugging.
