Re: How do I put a path to Sendmail in php script??

If Sendmail is configured propoerly, then you should be able to call it from the system prompt without having to worry about the path. That is, regardless if sendmail is in /usr/bin/sendmail or /usr/local/bin/sendmail, you should be able to run it as: %sendmail -argument $var $var Hence, your php script shouldn't have any problems calling it. Regardless of where it is located. Alternately, you could run Sendmail from php as: !/sendmail_path/sendmail -argument $var $var Lastly, if you need to a path (in an argument or passed variable), try this concept: $attached_file = "/path/to/file/filename.txt"; !/path/to/sendmail -argument $var $var < $attached_file; ** Doublecheck the syntax...the concept should be the same. See if that helps! -john __________John Monfort_________________ _+-----------------------------------+_ P E P I E D E S I G N S www.pepiedesigns.com "The world is waiting, are you ready?" -+___________________________________+- On Thu, 29 Nov 2001, Mike wrote: > The server that I am using has Sendmail in a different place than their path > to php.
