[SOLVED] PHP / HTML Form

[DirtySnipe]

I have a basic form up and running which is used for submiting support requests. but i want to do the following.

 

I want people to fill in a text box called 'email' but i dont want them to put in the full email address. e.g.

 

"[email protected]"

 

I just want them to add the name "me"

 

then i want the form to enter in the from field

 

[email protected]

 

I basically want to add the domain name onto the end so they dont have to put it in. (saves time for them) and it will always be from the same domain because of it being an internal form.

Hope you can help.

easy enough.

 

you have an HTML form field like:

<input type="text" name="email_username">

 

 

then on your PHP processing script just do something like:

 

$email_address = $_POST['email_username']."@mylongdomainname.com";

its still sending it from the email address in the main php.ini settings

 

here is the code sofar.

 

<?php

 

$to                      = "[email protected]";

$from                    = "$Emailaddress";

 

 

$Name                    = $_POST['Name'];

$Emailaddress            = $_POST['Emailaddress']."@mylongdomainname.com";

$House                    = $_POST['House'];

$Department              = $_POST['Department'];

$Problem                  = $_POST['Problem'];

$Description              = $_POST['Description'];

 

 

 

 

 

$sub      = "$Problem";

$headers  = "$from";

 

 

 

$mes    .= "$Name\n";

$mes    .= "$House\n";

$mes    .= "$Department\n";

$mes    .= "$Description\n";

 

 

    mail($to, $sub, $mes, $headers);

 

 

?>

Ive changed this part

 

$headers  = "From: $from\n";

 

 

If i put a manual email address in the $from it send it from that person now.

 

But if i want to send it from  $from                    = "$Emailaddress";

 

I get from UNKNOWN in the email address.

$to                       = "[email protected]";
// $from                     = "$Emailaddress"; 


$Name                     = $_POST['Name'];
$Emailaddress             = $_POST['Emailaddress']."@mylongdomainname.com";
$House                    = $_POST['House'];
$Department               = $_POST['Department'];
$Problem                  = $_POST['Problem'];
$Description              = $_POST['Description'];

$from                     = "$Emailaddress"; // define $from AFTER we know who it's from
