      &lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;input id="phone" name="phone" type="text" value="  /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;input id=" email " name="email " type="text " value=" " /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;textarea rows="5 " id="message " name="message "  cols="20 "&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;input id="submit " name="submit " value="שלחו " type="submit " &gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;input id="checkbox " type="checkbox " checked="yes " value="i want
      to recive weekly updates from you "/&gt; i want to recive weekly updates from you &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>this is the php code im using :</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
      $emailSubject = '.....';
      $webMaster = 'aa@aa';
  
      $name = $_POST['name'];
      $phone = $_POST['phone'];
      $email = $_POST['email'];
      $message = $_POST['message'];
  
      $body = &lt;&lt;&lt;EOD
      &lt;br&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br&gt;
      Subject: $option&lt;br&gt;
      Name: $name &lt;br&gt;
      Phone: $phone&lt;br&gt;
      Email: $email &lt;br&gt;
      Message: $message &lt;br&gt;
      EOD;
      $headers = "From: $email\r\n";
      $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\r\n";
      $success = mail($webMaster, $emailSubject, $body,
      $headers);
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>what I am missing is the php script that validates if the checkbox was unchecked(it's set to checked) or checked and sends the info together with the other fields.
  if checked send 'YES', if uncheck send 'NO' or nothing.
  thanks :) </p>
