Hi,

I have looked at the PHP mailing tutorial with MX on this site made by Sonocular and it works fine no problems there. However I want to have the user at my site send more stuff to me.

The PHP mail script that I need to alter is as follows:

PHP:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\<?php

$sendTo = "tcarling@yahoo.com";  
$subject = “Sent website form”;

$headers = “From: " . $\_POST[“name”];  
$headers .= “\<” . $\_POST[“email”] .”\>  
";  
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $\_POST[“email”];

$message = $\_POST[“message”];

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);  
?\>

* * *

What I am trying to do is add another field say “address” to this and I am not sure how to do it. I have tried doing the following:

PHP:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\<?php

$sendTo = "tcarling@yahoo.com";  
$subject = “Sent website form”;

$headers = “From: " . $\_POST[“name”];  
$headers .= “\<” . $\_POST[“email”] .”\>  
";  
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $\_POST[“email”];

$message = $\_POST[“message”] "  
" $\_POST[“address”]

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);  
?\>

* * *

but then it doesn’t work at all. Woohoo!

I have also tried adding anoth $ variable and then adding it to the mail line. Unfortunately this does not have the desired effect either ☹

Can anybody explain how I would add another, or several more fields using this script?

Thx for any help.
