jwk811 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 why dont you try this:[code]else{ //send email if the e-mail is valid $email = $_POST['email']; $name = $_POST['name]; $char = $_POST['char']; $to = "[email protected]"; $subject = "Smash Entry For: $name"; $type = checkType(); $message = "$name, $char, $type"; $headers = "From: $email"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); echo "Thanks for your entry! Your data will be sent to the tournament staff."; }][/code]I think that should do it... sorry if its incorrect but i usually never get a chance to help people since im very new to this too lol.. but this is something that i have learned!
