Re: How to write errorhandling??

Luditus/Dobromir, It IS possible to run the mail function on a Win machine - I had a Win2000/IIS(with its own SMTP stub) box running PHP mail happily. Also it is possible to have a Win-with-no-local-SMTP configuration. I have re-jigged my WinNT portable to run the same PHP/Apache script connecting directly to my ISP's SMTP server (in part using the path var mentioned). I haven't tried to combine email with 'headers' though! ...if that's the problem... =dn > 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. > > >Hi Fokes, > > > >I would like to send an mail via the mail function. > > > >If the mail failes I would like to redirect to an errorpage.
