Request: Send a blank email to php-general+get-95511@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
PHP is server side, so it's going to do the same thing each time. If it's sending a blank message, then no data was received. How is the content of the message created? Is it from a text field? Is there any javascript or similar "client-side" operations going on? Those could be handled differently on different versions of the browser on different OSs. ---John Holmes... > -----Original Message----- > From: Kim Kohen [mailto:kim@webguide.com.au] > Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 5:27 AM > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP] Windows based Mail() problem (newbie) > > Hello all, > > I have a PHP/MySQL/Apache site served on Mac OSX.
