It is possible to write html to the file, check out the ob_start(output buffering) function on php.net.  As far as writing PHP to the file I have no clue.

Bump, does anyone know how to fix this?

Ok I just took out the ini_set function and put this in [code]require("class.phpmailer.php"); require("class.smtp.php"); require("phpmailer.lang-en.php");[/code] About 75% of the time the email sends but ever so often I get the [color=red]Language string failed to load: recipients_failed[/color] error message.

I have it extracted onto my desktop and then I uploaded the class.phpmailer.php and class.smtp.php and the language file to my remote server with ftp.  Heres the object code, [code]class PHPMailer {     /////////////////////////////////////////////////     // PUBLIC VARIABLES     /////////////////////////////////////////////////     /**     * Email priority (1 = High, 3 = Normal, 5 = low).     * @var int     */     var $Priority          = 3;     /**     * Sets the CharSet of the message.     * @var string     */     var $CharSet          = "iso-8859-1";     /**     * Sets the Content-type of the message.     * @var string     */     var $ContentType        = "text/plain";     /**     * Sets the Encoding of the message.

If empty, the value returned     *  by SERVER_NAME is used or 'localhost.localdomain'.     *  @var string     */     var $Hostname          = "";[/code]

That gave me the error message [color=red]Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: phpmailer in /blah.php on line 22[/color]

I get this error when sending email, I'm using phpmailer, windows os, and my smtp server is remote.  How do I fix this error? [code]                                 ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer/dir"); ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/smtp/dir"); ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer.lang-en/dir");                                 $mail = new PHPMailer(); $mail->IsSMTP();                                      // set mailer to use SMTP $mail->Host = "smtp.mydomain.com";  // specify main and backup server $mail->SMTPAuth = true;    // turn on SMTP authentication $mail->Username = "username";  // SMTP username $mail->Password = "pass"; // SMTP password $mail->From = "[email protected]"; $mail->AddAddress("[email protected]"); $mail->Subject = "Blah"; $mail->Body = " Email text"; [/code]

I posted this once in third-party scripts, but no one seems to look at those threads so I reposted here. Anyways when using phpmailer through a smtp I get this error message: [color=red]Mailer Error: Language string failed to load: recipients_failed[/color] I have searched for at least a couple hours for the solution to this problem, have tried many different fixes and still no result.  How do I fix this problem? [code]                                 ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer/dir"); ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/smtp/dir"); ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer.lang-en/dir");                                 $mail = new PHPMailer(); $mail->IsSMTP();                                      // set mailer to use SMTP $mail->Host = "smtp.mydomain.com";  // specify main and backup server $mail->SMTPAuth = true;    // turn on SMTP authentication $mail->Username = "username";  // SMTP username $mail->Password = "pass"; // SMTP password $mail->From = "[email protected]"; $mail->AddAddress("[email protected]"); $mail->Subject = "Blah"; $mail->Body = " Email text"; [/code]

Hi all, first off I don't have a problem sending mail via a php script, but rather the problem is that when sent it shows up as spam in my inbox.  Suggestions?

Alright thanks for the tip.

How do you go about doing that? And injecting it into where, the form inputs?

What does sanitizing mean?

Ah I get it, ya all my validation is done with php.

What does validating server side mean?

Thanks for the help so far, I will try to use it to figure something out and will post again if I have problems.

Ok I have multiple forms (for registration) and if someone were to fill out all the information but have an error in what they entered, how do I keep the form values they entered in the form after they get an error message? Basically so they don't have to re-type all their information after one little error. The script goes from the registration page to a process page, and if there is an error it sends the user back to the registration page with the error message.

Problem Solved thanks, one thing tho I had to change it to header("Location: page.php") putting the quotes in front of location instead of after.

Ok if I have this       if($blah==true){goto(page.php);} what is the function for automatically forwarding you to a page if the condition is true?  Thanks.
