Tony.. you may want to brush up on strings in the PHP manual. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php The .= operator *appends* to an *existing* string.. so when you are defining a string for the first time, you must use just the plain equal sign =. After that point, you can use the .= to append to it. $a .= 'hi'; is equivalent to $a = $a . 'hi'; similar to how $a += 10; is equivalent to $a = $a + 10; So, in this case, change your header definition around a bit:
$mailheaders = "From: My Website\n"; $mailheaders .= "Cc: $other_email\n"; $mailheaders .= "Reply-to: $sender_email\n";
Also, you should probably change the "Reply to" header to "Reply-to" (as I've done here). -Mike At 10:31 PM 11/18/2001 -0600, you wrote:

If you want to add additional email addresses to the 'To' list, use a comma seperated list: e.g. $to = "tony@domain.com, bob@home.org, eve@yak.net"; if you want to cc the email then add it to your headers: e.g. $mailheaders .= "Cc: someone@carboncopy.com\r\n"; HTH, D. -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-windows-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-windows-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
