This is the code of my form

<form method="post" style="margin-left:15px;margin-top:6px;" onsubmit="return map_Email_Validation();">

    <table>
        <tr>
         <td colspan="2" class="faceboxheading" style="white-space:nowrap;">Share your map information with your friends</td>
            <td colspan="2" align="left"><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="hrf_btn" onclick="hide_facebox();">[x]</a></td>
        </tr>
      <tr></tr>
      <?php if($error) {?>
      <tr>
        <td colspan="2" class="faceboxheading"><?php echo $error;?></td>
      </tr>
      <?php }?>
      <tr>
        <td width="100px">To Email</td>

        <td width="250px"><input type="text" name="ToID" id="ToID" style="width:274px;" onkeyup="dis();"/></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>From Email</td>
        <td><input type="text" name="fromID" id="fromID" style="width:274px;" onkeyup="dis();" value="'.$g['email'].'" /></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Subject</td>
        <td><input type="text" name="subject" id="subject" style="width:274px;" onkeyup="dis();"/></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>

</td></tr>

    </table>
  </form>

The functions are

function map_Email_Validation()
{

        var ToID = document.getElementById('ToID').value;      
        //var fromID = document.getElementById('fromID').value;
        var subject = document.getElementById('subject').value;
        var message = document.getElementById('message').value;
        var char_at=ToID.indexOf("@");
        var char_dot=ToID.indexOf(".");
        var char_dolar=ToID.indexOf("$");
        var char_hash=ToID.indexOf("#");
        var at="@";

                var lat=ToID.indexOf(at);
if(ToID.length<1)
        {
            alert('Please enter To Email!');
            return false;
        }
        else if((char_at==-1)||(char_dot==-1)||(char_dolar!=-1)||(char_hash!=-1))
        {
            alert( 'Invalid To Email!');
            return false;
        }
        else if((char_at==0)||(char_dot==1)||(char_dot==char_at+1))
        {
            alert( 'Invalid To Email!');
            return false;
        }
if(subject.length<1)
        {
            alert( 'Please enter Subject!');
            return false;
        }
        if(message.length<1)
        {
            alert( 'Please enter Message!');
            return false;
        }
        else if(message.length>100)
        {
            alert( 'Message can have only 100 characters!');
            return false;
        }

return true;    
}
code in index page is
if(isset($_POST['submitbtn']))
{
    //echo "set";

    $flag=true;
    $error="";
    /*Getting Values**********************/
    $ToID=$_POST['ToID'];
    $fromID=$_POST['fromID'];
    $subject=$_POST['subject'];
    $URL=$_POST['URL'];
    $message=$_POST['message'];

    /*Validating the data*****************/
    if(strlen($ToID)==0)
    {
        $flag=false;
        $error.="Enter To email address field"; 
    }
    elseif(!preg_match_all("|^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$|U",$ToID,$arr))
    {
        $flag=false;
        $error.="Invalid To email address"; 
    }
if(strlen($subject)==0)
    {
        $flag=false;
        $error.="Enter subject field";  
    }
    if(strlen($message)==0)
    {
        $flag=false;
        $error.="Enter message field";  
    }
    elseif(strlen($message)>100)
    {
        $flag=false;
        $error.="Message can have only 100 charaters";  
    }

    if($flag=="true")
    {

        $urltoemail = "<html><head><title>Forgot Password</title></head><body>
<table><tr><td>".$message."</td></tr><tr><td><a href='{$URL}'>Click here for viewing map</a></td></tr></table></body></html>";
        $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
        $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\r\n";
        if(strlen($fromID)==0)
        $fromID = 'info@cimaps.co.uk';
        $headers .= "From: $fromID \r\n";
        mail($ToID,$subject,$urltoemail,$headers);
        //header("Location:".$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
    }

}

    I’m not sure and I don’t fully understand the fix that you had made. But for me, the check if(isset($_POST['submitbtn'])) fails in both IE8 and FF4; it worked fine in Chrome12. And the reason is that when you are using an <input type="image"> kind of button to submit the form, you need to check it like this:

    if(isset($_POST['submitbtn_x'])) {
    ...
    ...
}

    And that check will work on all browsers. To check this, you may like to do a print_r($_POST) just before where the if() starts and see how it looks like.

    Hope this helps to solve your problem.
