Thanx for all the help, it was so quick. I would have helped if I checked
the manual first though :)

There are only 4 parameters allowed in the mail function, PHP4.0 Manual pg
535.
mail($to, $subject, $message, $additional_headers);
Thus for your purposes below,
> if ($ACTION == "send-mail") {
> mail($MYEMAIL,$TITLE,$NAME,$COMPANY,$CITY,$COUNTRY,$EMAIL,$NUM,"From:
> $EMAIL");
> echo "<h2>Your information has been submitted.</h2>\n";
> } else {
> echo "<h2>Use this form to submit your information.</h2>\n";
> }
> ?>
Try this:
$extra_header = "From: $EMAIL";
$subject = "Submitted Form";
$message = "$TITLE\n$NAME\n$COMPANY\n$CITY\n$COUNTRY\n$EMAIL\n$NUM";
mail($MYEMAIL, $subject, $message, $extra_header);
Hope that helps
