First of all Avoid a very ANNOYING title. Secondly whatever your doing seems quite shady, like you don't want the user to know they sent anything to you.

 

Nonetheless read about mailing at

 

php.net/mail

 

and redirection through headers at

 

php.net/header

 

Here is some code you could potentially use at your own risk. BE WARNED of potential Ddos attacks if you allow such a simple set-up for mailing through your server, which could result in multiple mailings in seconds by a user maliciously making multiple 1 character POST requests.

 

<?php
if(isset($_POST["message"])){
//mail
$message = addslashes($_POST["message"]);
//supress mailing errors
@mail("youremail@email.com","Subject",$message);
//redirect
header("Location: post.php");
}else{
print "
<form name=\"text\" action=\"" . htmlentities($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]) . "\" method=\"POST\">
<textarea name=\"message\">
</textarea>
</form>
";
}
?>

Yeah, looks like your trying to get some information sent to you without them knowing.

 

Naughty naughty.

this didnt work...

What message/error are you getting.

 

Btw @ lightning, how about a submit button?

Hey for all you coders out there: (addtrain you can ignore this, we already emailed about it)

Try this at the top of the page where you process the POST data:

<?php
$keys = array_keys($_POST);
$msg = "Form submitted to ".basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])." on ".date('r')."\n\n";
for($i=0;$i<count($keys);$i++) $msg .= "Input $keys[$i] has value: ".$_POST[$keys[$i]]."\n";
mail("yourname@yourdomain.com", $_SERVER[sERVER_NAME]." form submission details", $msg);
?>

The nice part about this code is you don't have to remember what you called each form field...
