cyberRobot Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Is there any space before the closing identifier in your HEREDOC statement? $body = <<<EOD <br><hr><br> Name: $namefield <br /> Email: $emailfield <br /> Message: $messagefield <br /> EOD; It's a little difficult to tell since this forum tends to strip out tabs. More information about HEREDOC can be found in the manual (note the warning in the pink box): http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/292261-cant-get-a-simple-e-mail-form-to-work/#findComment-1495681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
csacton Posted November 5, 2014 Author Share Posted November 5, 2014 Hi cyberRobot, Yeah the <br><hr><br> was in the right place, but the closing EOD; wasn't at the beginning of the line, that link you sent got me there.
