You cannot have commands in the middle of a string.

Technically you can. <?php $str = "Hi, my name is " . $this->getName(); // or $str = "Hi, my name is $this->getName()"; echo $str; ?> ~Philip

Try building a string first, or use output buffering and then capture the buffer and use that as the string for the mail function. Thank you, Micah Gersten onShore Networks Internal Developer http://www.onshore.com payne@magi.magidesign.com wrote:
