<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $name = trim(filter_input(INPUT_POST,"name",FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING));
    $email = trim(filter_input(INPUT_POST,"email",FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL));
    $details = trim(filter_input(INPUT_POST,"details",FILTER_SANITIZE_SPECIAL_CHARS));

    if ($name == "" || $email == "" || $details == "") {
        echo "Please fill in the required fields: Name, Email and Details";
        exit;
    }
    if ($_POST["address"] != "") {
        echo "Bad form input";
        exit;
    }

    echo "<pre>";
    $email_body = "";
    $email_body .= "Name " . $name . "\n";
    $email_body .= "Email " . $email . "\n";
    $email_body .= "Details " . $details . "\n";
    echo $email_body;
    echo "</pre>";

    //To Do: Send Email
    header("location:suggest.php?status=thanks");

$pageTitle = "Suggest a Media Item";

include("inc/header.php"); ?>

<div class="section page">

        <?php if (isset($_GET["status"]) && $_GET['status'] == "thanks") {
            echo "<p>Thanks for the email! I&rsquo;ll check out your suggestion shortly!</p>";
        } else {
