jayarsee Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 There is no terminating semicolon at the end of your mail() function call.

Rifts Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 are you running it on a server? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/212201-trying-to-send-an-email-to-myself-from-some-site-comments/#findComment-1105890 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed D Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 yeah it should've been running on freehostia. i think sendmail may have been disabled so i'd like to try a different tecnique. The plan is to accept the information given to me and write it to a file then redirect to a thanks page. <?php header ('Location: http://thanks_page.com'); $handle = fopen("wasdkill.txt", "a"); foreach($_POST as $variable => $value) { fwrite($handle, $variable); fwrite($handle, "="); fwrite($handle, $value); fwrite($handle, "\r\n"); } fwrite($ handle, "\r\n"); fclose($handle); exit; ?> I still fail so it's not showing up Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/212201-trying-to-send-an-email-to-myself-from-some-site-comments/#findComment-1105915 Share on other sites More sharing options...
