RE: [PHP] XML inside a file

thanks. sorry about that. will do. The mail part is already working. But we have 12 new variations of forms being posted a month, so I want to be able to cycle through the $form.varnames in my email. rather than explicitly coding the $varname for each form variation. in cold fusion it codes like this: <cfset mymessage = ""> <cfloop index="fieldname" list="#form.fieldnames#"> <cfset mymessage = mymessage & chr(13) & "#fieldname#: #evaluate('form.#fieldname#')#"> </cfloop> <cfmail>mymessage</cfmail> Thanks Eric -----Original Message----- From: Evan Raskob [mailto:esr9@cornell.edu] Sent: Sunday, July 09, 2000 12:05 AM To: eric@alivenewmedia.mb.ca Subject: Re: [PHP] XML inside a file Not sure what you mean, and I think you probably wanted to reply to the php-general list rather than emailing me, but here goes. Php registers the post variables according to their name ($varname), so you just have to concatenate the post (or get) variables and use the mail() function to mail them. you can check www.php.net for the exact mail syntax, i forget it offhand. -Evan At 08:55 PM 07/08/2000 -0500, you wrote: >I need to dump the contents of a form to an email.
