I have a registration for m on my website and it only sends me the required fields upon user submitting form, the optional fields, even when filled out does not get sent? I do not know what I am doing wrong, Can you please check this php file and see if there is an obvious error I cannot find? Please help as I am completely new to this and am building the website for a community sports club in my free time. I have attached the html page to this request in case it helps. Thanks in advance
