vacation-vallarta Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I have a PHP code in a contact form. I want this form to be emailed to customers when someone fills it in. I can change the recipient and rename the file, that is no problem. But I need the email to look nice. I want a header, http://www.vacation-vallarta.com/images/logo.png on the top, I also want the info to be seperated by line item. Example email Arrival: 8/12/2013 Depar: 8/11/2013 It is simple but I just can not figure it out. I want the beginning of the email to state "You have a inquiry from "$name" from Vacation-Vallarta. Then start all the contact information. I want it to be nice for clients instead of a mess. If you can help me out, please email sales@vacation-vallarta.com and I can pay you through papayl <html> <head> <title>Thanks For Contacting Us</title> </head><?php $recipient = 'sales@vacation-vallarta.com'; $name1 = $_POST['name1']; $email1 = $_POST['email1']; $phonenumber = $_POST['phonenumber']; $subject1 = $_POST['subject1']; $questions = $_POST['questions']; $arrival = $_POST['arrival']; $depart = $_POST['depart']; $messages = array(); if (!preg_match("/^[\w\+\-.~]+\@[\-\w\.\!]+$/", $email1)) { $messages[] = "Please provide a valid email address"; } if (!preg_match("/^[\w\ \+\-\'\"]+$/", $name1)) { $messages[] = "The name field must contain only alphabetical characters, numbers, spaces, and reasonable punctuation." ; } $subject1 = preg_replace('/\s+/', ' ', $subject1); if (preg_match('/^\s*$/', $subject1)) { $messages[] = "Please specify the property you are requesting the availability for."; } $arrival = $_POST['arrival']; if (preg_match('/^\s*$/', $arrival)) { $messages[] = "Plese enter the day you arrive."; } $depart = $_POST['depart']; if (preg_match('/^\s*$/', $depart)) { $messages[] = "Plese enter the day you depart."; } if (count($messages)) { foreach ($messages as $message) { echo("<p>$message</p>\n"); } echo("<p>Click the back button and correct the problems.

maxudaskin Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I would highly suggest checking out PHPMailer. $mail = new PHPMailer(); // defaults to using php "mail()" $body = file_get_contents('contents.html'); $body = preg_replace('/[\]/i','',$body); $mail->SetFrom('name@yourdomain.com', 'First Last'); $mail->AddReplyTo("name@yourdomain.com","First Last"); $address = "whoto@otherdomain.com"; $mail->AddAddress($address, "John Doe"); $mail->Subject = "PHPMailer Test Subject via mail(), basic"; $mail->AltBody = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test $mail->MsgHTML($body); $mail->AddAttachment("images/phpmailer.gif"); // attachment $mail->AddAttachment("images/phpmailer_mini.gif"); // attachment if(!$mail->Send()) { echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo; } else { echo "Message sent!"; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
