Database & Mailer

[Kuzin]

I'm rather bad at php. And thus, i'm having a problem.

I need to take a database post script that i've created, and

add email functionality, similar to the 2nd script below.

 

I've run into a mental dead end, and cannot figure how to continue.

 

Any help would be highly appreciated.

 

 

<?php

$first_name = "first_name";
$last_name = "last_name";
$company_name = "company_name";
$email = "email";
$phone = "phone";
$event_date = "event_date";
$event_location = "event_location";
$howDidHearAbtUs = "howDidHearAbtUs";
$referral = "referral";
$comments = "comments";


$sid = "0000000000000000000000"; 
$data_arr[]="sid=".$sid;
$data_arr[]="first_name=".$first_name;
$data_arr[]="last_name=".$last_name;
$data_arr[]="company=".$company_name;
$data_arr[]="email=".$email;
$data_arr[]="phone=".$phone;
$data_arr[]="event_date=".$event_date;
$data_arr[]="event_location=".$event_location;
$data_arr[]="lead_source=".$howDidHearAbtUs;
$data_arr[]="referral=".$referral;
$data_arr[]="comments=".$comments;
$data_arr[]="submit=submit";



$host = "http://www.gigbooks.com"; 
$method = "POST";
$path = "/contactus_request.php";
$data = implode("&",$data_arr);


$url=$host.$path;

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);



?> 

 

 

 

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$to = "email@email.com";
$subject = "[ MCN | SALON ]" . " " . $_POST['name'];
$name_field = $_POST['name'];
$email_field = $_POST['email'];
$phone_field = $_POST['phone'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

$body = "From ::\t$name_field\nE-Mail ::\t$email_field\nPhone ::\t$phone_field\nMessage ::\n$message\n\n\n\n [ Email Generated from MCNSALON.COM ]";

mail($to, $subject, $body);
}

?>

okay.. but what do you want it to do ?

 

[Kuzin]

Basically, combining the two scripts. I need the first script just to email the data similar the the 2nd script, while still sending the information to the database.

if you only want to send an email then read  email() in the manual
