I have a form with around 50 text fields. I have used the mail function to send forms with simple textarea's, names, and email addresses, but what about when I have around 50 fields to send? I am using the following format for my mails: <? if(isset($submit)): $date = date("M d, Y"); $to = "seattle.webmaster@simrad.com"; $subject = "Web Site Comments"; $body = "On $date\n $name\n ($email) wrote<br><br>" . $feedback; mail($to, $subject, $body, "From:$email\nContent-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\nMime-Version: 1.0\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion()); print("<h3>Thanks for the comments!</h3>\nWe appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us."); else: ?> The fields $feedback, $name, $email are from the form, but I have another form with around 50 fields. Is there an alternative to listing all 50or so fields on that one $body line? I'd like the final message to have a reasonable amount of formatting to keep the many fields sorted out and easy to read. -- Chip Wiegand Computer Services www.simradusa.com chip.wiegand@simrad.com Simrad, Inc Lynnwood, WA 425-712-1138 "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home." --Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corp., 1977 (-- Then why do I have nine?
