Re: How to write errorhandling??

Hi, I see that everybody is looking for the error in the header function - but the error actually is that Luditus is trying to use mail on a Windows box with no SMTP server on it. It is possible to suppress the mail function output using @mail, but it won't fix the problem - if you want to use mail function on a WIN machine you'll need a sendmail like program and you will have to adjust the sendmail_path variable in your PHP configuration.
