hi...

 

I have a form in my site, and i would like to send the data from that form in a HTML email.

I can send the HTML email, but i can't see the users data that was inserted in the form :-(

 

I've got this script:

<?php

//Name of the Person
$namenew = $_GET['name'];	
//Email Id of the person
$emailnew = $_GET['email'];	  
//Feedback detail
$feedbacknew = $_GET['feedback']; 

// multiple recipients
$to  = 'some@teste.com'; // note the comma
// subject
$subject = 'rLD-i.com Form Feedback';

// message
$message = '
<html>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #999999;
text-align: justify;
}
-->
</style>
<head>
  <title>rLD-i.com</title>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Got a new feedback from <?php echo $_GET['name']; ?>. Ele submeteu a seguinte informação:</p>
  <table>
    <tr>
      <td>Email: <?php echo "$emailnew;" ?></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Detailss: <?php echo $feedbacknew['feedback']; ?></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</body>
</html>
';

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: rLD-i.com <birthday@example.com>' . "\r\n";

// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

 

How can i display the input data from the form inside de HTML code?

Can anyone help me?

The problem is:

When you are writing in $message:

... w feedback from <?php echo $_GET['name']; ?>. Ele submeteu a  ...

 

$message is already a part of PHP... So why do you put <?php inside?

 

Example:

$var1 = "Something";

$var2 = "Something else";

 

$together = $var1." and ".$var2;

print $together;

// Will output Something and Something else

 

 

That's the proper way of combining variables in php...

You can add to one variable the value of another as well:

 

Example:

$var1 = "Something";

$var2 = "Something else";

 

$var1 .= " and ".$var2;

print $var2;

// Output is the same as in example above...

 

So the proper code is:

 

<?php

//Name of the Person
$namenew = $_GET['name'];	
//Email Id of the person
$emailnew = $_GET['email'];	  
//Feedback detail
$feedbacknew = $_GET['feedback']; 

// multiple recipients
$to  = 'some@teste.com'; // note the comma
// subject
$subject = 'rLD-i.com Form Feedback';

// message
$message = '
<html>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #999999;
text-align: justify;
}
-->
</style>
<head>
  <title>rLD-i.com</title>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Got a new feedback from '.$_GET['name'].'. Ele submeteu a seguinte informação:</p>
  <table>
    <tr>
      <td>Email: <?php echo "$emailnew;" ?></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Detailss: '.$feedbacknew['feedback'].'</td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</body>
</html>
';

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: rLD-i.com <birthday@example.com>' . "\r\n";

// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

 

 

I hope it helped!

You missed one ;)

 

<?php

//Name of the Person
$namenew = $_GET['name'];	
//Email Id of the person
$emailnew = $_GET['email'];	  
//Feedback detail
$feedbacknew = $_GET['feedback']; 

// multiple recipients
$to  = 'some@teste.com'; // note the comma
// subject
$subject = 'rLD-i.com Form Feedback';

// message
$message = '
<html>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #999999;
text-align: justify;
}
-->
</style>
<head>
  <title>rLD-i.com</title>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Got a new feedback from '.$namenew.'. Ele submeteu a seguinte informação:</p>
  <table>
    <tr>
      <td>Email: ' . $emailnew . '</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Detailss: '.$feedbacknew.'</td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</body>
</html>
';

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: rLD-i.com <birthday@example.com>' . "\r\n";

// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

 

Also, I changed the variables round, $_GET['feedback'] might have been an array, but i doubted it.. look at the beginning of the script, you've already renamed the variables so why put the old ones into the $message var?
