elmas156 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Here is an example of an html email that I created for a site that I did several years ago. It may be a little sloppy but it works. <?php $resdat=$_GET['resdate']; $product=$_GET['product']; $price=$_GET['price']; $fname=$_GET['fname']; $lname=$_GET['lname']; $address=$_GET['address']; $city=$_GET['city']; $zip=$_GET['zip']; $phone=$_GET['phone']; $email=$_GET['email']; $delivery=$_GET['delivery']; $pickup=$_GET['pickup']; $guests=$_GET['guests']; $payment=$_GET['payment']; $referal=$_GET['referal']; $comments=$_GET['comments']; if ($payment=="Credit Card (online)") { $payment= ("<a href=\"https://www.somesite.com/payonline.htm\">Credit Card (click here to pay online)</a>"); } $to="$email"; $subject="$product Reservation for $resdate"; $message = "<html> <body> <img src=\"http://www.somesite.com/Logo1.gif\"> <br> Hello $fname, <p>Thank you for choosing my company for your product rental.<br> Your reservation has been accepted and the $product has been reserved<br> for you for the date of $resdate.
