Could you clarify what exactly you need?

[luxpc]

I need one more field (textarea) in this form which will be sent to e-mail too ex:

 

<form action="" method="POST">

<fieldset>

<legend>Tell a friend</legend><br />

Your email<br />

<input type="text" name="your_email" value="Your email" /><br /><br />

Your Friends email<br />

<input type="text" name="friend_email" value="Your friends email" />

 

<--Additional field-->

<textarea id="message">Here my script will automatically grab the url with help of the script which I posted below </textarea>

<--Additional field-->

 

<input type="Submit" value="Tell a friend" name="Submit" />

</fieldset>

</form>

 

 

Script

I have the following script which grabs the webpage url

<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function() {

var message = 'I thought that you would find this information very useful: ' + document.URL;

$('#message').text(message);

});

</script>

Sorry, I'm still having trouble understanding. Maybe someone else can help.

[luxpc]

ok , just forget about script, what shoud I add to this code in order to have the text introduced in textarea send to e-mail?

 

For example we have <textarea name="test" value="some text" ></textarea>

 

I try this code but it doesn't work, I mean recipient does not receive any info which were introduced in textarea :

 

<?php
if (isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
// This will check to see if the form has been submitted
$senders_email = $_POST['your_email'];
// The person who is submitting the form
$recipient_friend = $_POST['friend_email'];
// The forms recipient
mail($recipient_friend,"A message from $senders_email", "Dear $recipient_friend,\n\nYour friend $senders_email, found ->>>>$test <<<<----very useful, and thought you would be interested.\n\nPlease follow the link to view our site:\nhttp://www.your_sites_address.com\n\nThank You\n\nThe your_sites_address.com", 'From: "your_site" <your_email.com>');
if (isset($_POST['your_email'])) {
echo "<br>Your friend $recipient_friend has been contacted <br><br>Thank you $senders_email";
}}
?>


<form action="" method="POST">
<fieldset>
<legend>Tell a friend</legend><br />
Your email<br />
<input type="text" name="your_email" value="Your email" /><br /><br />
Your Friends email<br />
<input type="text" name="friend_email" value="Your friends email" />

->>>>
<textarea name="test" value="some text"> </textarea>
<<<<----

<input type="Submit" value="Tell a friend" name="Submit" />

</fieldset>
</form>

A textarea does not have a value attribute. <textarea name="test">Text here</textarea>.

Here is how I have my PHP Mail code setup with your information:

 

$senders_email = "$_POST['your_email']";
$recipient_friend = " $_POST['friend_email']";
$subject = "A message from $_POST['your_email']";
$message = "[color=#008800][size=2]A message from $senders_email"[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2],[/size][/color][color=#000000][size=2] [/size][/color][color=#008800][size=2]"Dear $recipient_friend,\n\nYour friend $senders_email, found ->>>>$test <<<<----very useful, and thought you would be interested.\n\nPlease follow the link to view our site:\nhttp://www.your_sites_address.com\n\nThank You\n\nThe your_sites_address.com[/size][/color]'>
$headers = "From: $senders_email\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
mail($recipient_friend , $subject, $message ,$headers);

 

Try that and see if you get what you need!
