Collect an Email Address then Mail it

[maextra7]

Hey All

Can anyone help me with some code to collect an email address put in by a user on a form, and then when they click submit is auto emails then the info they have requested pulling their email address through from the form?

I am hoping that there could be a field so if people want mor einfo they can put in their email address and click a button to send them the info.

I am a total beginner so please be gentle!  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

<?php //php email function
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$email = $_POST['email'];
$subject = "More Info";
$from = "[email protected]";// I dont find this perticularly useful, they dont work...
$return = "[email protected]";// This one as well. so dont bother.
$body = "This is where your info goes";

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0rn";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1rn";
$headers .= "From: myname<$from>rn";
$headers .= "Return-Path: <$return>";

if (mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers))
{echo "<p><font face=\"Dotum\">Your message has been successfully delivered!</font></p>";}
else
{echo "<p><font face=\"Dotum\">Your message failed to deliver...</font></p>";}?>
<form  name="sendinfo" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
<input name="email" value="<?php echo"$email"?>" type="text" size="30" maxlength="50" />
<input class="button" name="submit" type="submit" />
</form>[/code]

This is basically it, next time try search in google first  ;)

Hey

Thanks very much for the really quick replies! 

Got it working sort of... I cannot get the message body (email body) to show.  When I search in google most of it points to an email script using a specified recipent address which is why I thoguht I would pick someone's brains!

I know I have probably done something really silly, anyone able to point me inthe right direction?

Cheers
Mel!  ???

In the mail() part you have $to,$subject and then '' which would be the body. You need to put some content in there or a variable which you then need to specify elsewhere in the page.

hey, ive got a question, does these:
$headers ="From:" . $from . "";
$headers .="Return-Path: " . $from .  "n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" ."n";


$headers .="Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=" . $boundary . "nn";
$headers .= $message . "n";
$headers .= "--" . $boundary . "n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1" ."n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit". "nn";
$headers .= $message . "n";
$headers .= "--" . $boundary . "n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/HTML; charset=ISO-8859-1" ."n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit". "nn";
$headers .= $message_html . "n";
$headers .= "--" . $boundary . "--n";


these headers work? do you get a message that you have for $from, or is it your hosts email?
