I have a form in which Ive used the Date() function to create a unique numbering system which is different everytime a user access's a page. but then (along with other form fields - not shown below) the contents of the fields entered would be shown when submit was pressed i.e. you entered... etc AND emailed using php, but I can't seem to transfer the complete value of 'formNumber'. The HTML & HTML with PHP code is below. Please help!
