Hi! The PHPs manual page on the mail function shows an example of sending HTML mail. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php I've also attached it below: <snip> <?php /* recipients */ $to = "mary@example.com" . ", " ; // note the comma $to .= "kelly@example.com"; /* subject */ $subject = "Birthday Reminders for August"; /* message */ $message = ' <html> <head> <title>Birthday Reminders for August</title> </head> <body> <p>Here are the birthdays upcoming in August!</p> <table> <tr> <th>Person</th><th>Day</th><th>Month</th><th>Year</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Joe</td><td>3rd</td><td>August</td><td>1970</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Sally</td><td>17th</td><td>August</td><td>1973</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> '; /* To send HTML mail, you can set the Content-type header. */ $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; /* additional headers */ $headers .= "To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>\r\n"; $headers .= "From: Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>\r\n"; $headers .= "Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com\r\n"; $headers .= "Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com\r\n"; /* and now mail it */ mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?> </snip> HTH -- ramil http://ramil.sagum.net
