Request: Send a blank email to php-windows+get-16692@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
I'm a PHP newbie and have just installed php4.2.3 on WinNT 4.0 w/ IIS4.0 Already have set the SMTP and sendmail_from in php.ini. 1). Mail function sends mail, except that none of the html form variables are parsed into the email body $message. The script works fine run from another hosted (apache) webserver. Is a config or script issue? 2). Received email message does not include the sender's email address from $txtemail form variable. Instead, it places their email address from the form in the message body first line. It is using the php.ini sendmail_from address. <?php { $recipient="marie.monday@somemail.net"; $subject="Need Help"; $message="$txtname submitted a helpdesk request by web form. A computer tech needs to contact $txtname shortly at $txtphone or by email at $txtemail regarding $txtproblem"; $sender=$txtemail; mail(trim($recipient), trim($subject), $message, trim($sender)); } ?> TIA, ~marie
