Hi, Well I have this PHP email form script that I have been using for years. Unfortunietly, I have limited experience with PHP. I simply want to be able to FORMAT the output I receive in this email form script but its a bit too complex for me and I'm not sure what to change and where. It uses a bunch of "for / if" iterations to post the data in the email, so Im not really sure how to get it to work. What done is found all the "content type" lines and changed text/plain to text/html and tried to add some html formatting to this but it did not work. I just want to say underline or bold the form output in the email I receive so its easy to read and I would like to get all the data on a single condensed page in say 2 or more columns. I believe my only option is html formatting here but, there you go, it's a bit too complex for me. Could anybody give me some qucik pointers on how to get this formatted? Thanks much, Mark <?php error_reporting(E_PARSE); define("ADMIN_MAIL", "ADMINPREAPPSUB@.com"); define("HOST_NAME", $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']); define("PHP_SELF", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); define("ERR_MISSING", "Missing required field : "); define("ERR_EMAIL", "Please enter a valid e-mail address : "); define("ERR_CREDIT_CARD_NUMBER", "Please check the credit card number : "); define("ERR_CREDIT_CARD_EXPIRED", "Please check the credit card expiry date : "); define("ERR_SELECT_UPLOAD", "Please select file : ");// recipient define("FORM_RECIPIENT", "PREAPPSUB@.com");// This is the TO: staffer e-mail address!
