[SOLVED] adding a CC receipt to my php script???

[craigtolputt]

Hi Guys,

 

I have this php script that registers users and then sends them an email......

 

Does anyone know how to add a CC receipt to this??

 

<?php
//include the connect script
include "connect.php";

/*THIS VARIABLE IS WHAT TABLE YOU ARE USING...IF YOU USED MY SQL FILE, THEN YOUR DEFAULT TABLE*/
/*NAME SHOULD BE 'userv2' AND YOU DO NOT NEED TO CHANGE ANYTHING, BUT IF YOU MADE YOUR OWN TABLE,*/
/*CHANGE THIS VARIABLE.*/
$tableName = "DNAreg";

//Post all of the users information (md5 Encrypt the dna_no)
$username = $_POST['username'];
$dna_no = md5($_POST['dna_no']);
$dna_no2 = ($_POST['dna_no']);
$company = ($_POST['company']);
$firstName = $_POST['firstName'];
$lastName = $_POST['lastName'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$county = $_POST['county'];
$postcode = $_POST['postcode'];
$product = $_POST['product'];
$can_loc = $_POST['can_loc'];
$sender = $_POST['sender'];

//Generate confKey (this is used to determine which user it is when the user forget's their dna_no.
function createConfKey() {
$chars = "abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz023456789";
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$i = 0;
$key = '';
while ($i <= 31) { 
	$num = rand() % 33;
	$tmp = substr($chars, $num, 1);
	$key = $key . $tmp;
	$i++;
}    
return $key;
}
$thekey = createConfKey();
//$theKey is the random 32 character string and then $confKey is the random 32 character string with md5 encryption.
$confKey = md5($thekey);
//grab all the usernames in the table
$sql1 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $tableName WHERE dna_no = '$dna_no'");
//get number of results from both queries
$row1 = mysql_num_rows($sql1);
//if there is a result it will be either 1 or higher
if($row1 > 0) {
//echo username or email is already in use and deny registration.
echo "&msgText=DNA Number already added!";
} else {
//if there was no existing username or email, insert all their information into the database.
$insert = mysql_query("INSERT INTO $tableName (username,dna_no,company,firstName,lastName,email,phone,address,city,county,postcode,product,can_loc,confKey) VALUES ('$username','$dna_no','$company','$firstName','$lastName','$email','$phone','$address','$city','$county','$postcode','$product','$can_loc','$confKey')") or die(mysql_error());
//This is required for and HTML email to be sent through PHP.
$headers = "From: admin@redwebsecurity.com\r\n";
$headers.= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 ";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0 ";
/******HERE YOU CAN EDIT WHAT YOU WANT THE EMAIL TO SAY WHEN THEY FORGET THEIR dna_no******/
/*																							*/
/*PHP Explained:                                                                            */
/*$msg are all the same variable, however, when you set the first one to just '=' and the   */
/*second one to '.=' it basically concatinates the two variables. For example:              */
/*																							*/
/*																							*/
/*										$a = 1;												*/
/*										$a .= 2;											*/
/*										$a .= 3;											*/
/*										echo $a;											*/
/*																							*/
/*										This will echo: 123									*/
/*																							*/
/*																							*/
/*	Be sure to include $firstName & $lastName somewhere in the message so the user knows 	*/
/*  what the message is																		*/
/*																							*/
/*																							*/
/*																							*/
/********************************************************************************************/

$msg = "Hello $username<br/><br/>";
$msg .= "We would like to thank you for registering your Product.<br/><br>";
$msg .= "Your dna_no is: $dna_no2<br/><br>";
$msg .= "Your Customers Details are:<br/><br>";
$msg .= "$company<br/>";
$msg .= "$firstName";
$msg .= "$lastName<br/>";
$msg .= "$address<br/>";
$msg .= "$city<br/>";
$msg .= "$county<br/>";
$msg .= "$postcode<br/><br>";
$msg .= "$phone<br/>";
$msg .= "<a href=\"mailto:$email\">$email</a><br/><br/>";
$msg .= "Your Registered Product is: $product<br/><br>";
$msg .= "Your Canister is located: $can_loc<br/><br>";
$msg .= "Please keep these safe and if you have any questions, contact us at <br><br>";
mail($sender,"Thanks for Registering!",$msg,$headers);

//and echo "Successfully registered!" and take them to a "thanks for registering" frame in flash
echo "&msgText=Successfully registered!";
echo "&nameText=$firstName";
}

?>

 

I tried adding

 

mail.("myemail@url.com","Thanks for Registering!",$msg,$headers);

 

under this but it stopped the scriupt working

 

mail($sender,"Thanks for Registering!",$msg,$headers);

i think you need to add it to the headers

found this on php.net

$headers .= 'Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "\r\n";

[craigtolputt]

cool ill add it in see if works

[craigtolputt]

That seemed to work but it adds it in the email header so im wondering if this will work for a blind carbon copy so that you cant see it in the header

 

do you know how i would add that, perhaps something like...

 

$headers .= 'BCc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "\r\n";

 

???

[ratcateme]

that looks right the headers are sent to a server and not the actual recipient so they wont see the bcc

but the header might be case sensitive so might need to be Bcc as on php.net

 

Scott.
