Php Mail Function

General PHP Help
#1

Hi

How do i send HTML form data using php mail function.

I managed to use mail function to send email for a message, but I would like to send more than just a message. I have a html form which calls a php script to send email.

The form has couple of input type text and radio fields. Please see here:

http://www.hostcheese.com/FreeAffiliateWebsite/submitdetails/submitdetailstest.html

My current php script that send message only is below:

[php]<?php
$email_address = $_POST[‘email’] ;
$subject = $_POST[‘subject’] ;
$message = $_POST[‘message’] ;
mail( "[email protected]", “Subject: $subject”,
$message, “From: $email” );
echo “Thank you for using our mail form.
”;
echo “Your email has been sent.”;
?>

[/php]

How do I update this php script to send the form data on the above link.

Thanks

Hi use below code for send HTML content in mail [php] //save this file as testmail.php and run $to = "[email protected]"; // receiver email, replace this mail id from your for testing $from = "[email protected]"; //sender email $subject = "Hello! This is HTML email"; // contain your subject line for email //$message contain your html code you can modify it as per your requirement. I am putting static HTML code $message = <<<EOF Looool!!! I am reciving HTML email......

// define your headers here.
$headers = “From: $from\r\n”;
/* // your must define below line for send HTML content in mail. if you forget or not use than you can not sent HTML content in mail. It define Content type of mail.*/
$headers .= “Content-type: text/html\r\n”;
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
[/php]

Thanks SR.
I am not sure how your code will work in my case.
I have a separate HTML and php script. HTML calls php script to send email.

Let me paste my html below:

[code]

Email:

Subject:

Clickbank ID:

Location:

Domain Name:

Select Your Website:

Acne Free in 3 Days
Dog Training Secrets
Earth 4 Energy
Fat Loss 4 Idiots
Gold Swing Guru

My Air Fare Secrets

[/code]

Now I need to modify my php script (please see my first post) to get all the form data (cbid, location, domain, etc) and finally to sent to an email address specified in the php.

Thanks
Naz

OK, please replace your php script code with below code [php] //change this to your email. $to = "[email protected]"; $from = $_POST['email']; $subject = $_POST['subject']; 
//begin of HTML message
$message = '<html>
				  <body bgcolor="#DCEEFC">
					<center>
						<b>I am reciving HTML email......</b> <br>
						<font color="red">Contact Form detail Fillup by User </font> <br>
						<table width="100%" border="1">
						  <tr><td>Sender Email</td><td>'.$_POST['email'].'</td></tr>
						  <tr><td>Clickbank ID</td><td>'.$_POST['cbid'].'</td></tr>
						  <tr><td>Location</td><td>'.$_POST['location'].'</td></tr>
						  <tr><td>Domain Name</td><td>'.$_POST['domain'].'</td></tr>
						  <tr><td>Website</td><td>'.$_POST['website'].'</td></tr>
						</table>
						<font color="red">Thanks Sanjay!</font> <br>
					</center>
				  </body>
				</html>';

//end of message
$headers = “From: $from\r\n”;
$headers .= “Content-type: text/html\r\n”;

// now lets send the email.
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

echo “Thank you for using our mail form.
”;
echo “Your email has been sent.”;
[/php]

Note: you can modify $message structure as per your requirement, i have used simple table structure.

I hope now your problem is resolve…
