sug15 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Hey. I just coded this simple email script. I am a beginner to html. I have 2 problems. The first is that It will not recognize the <br /> as breaks. it just displays them in the email as "</br >". For example, if the user types "Gloss Metal" for a theme name, and then "Harry J" for developer name, and clicks submit, the email will be outputed as "Gloss Metal<br />Harry J". The second problem is that it is giving me this When I click submit: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/s/u/g/sug15/html/sendmail.php:6) in /home/content/s/u/g/sug15/html/sendmail.php on line 19 However, the email is still sent. Here is the code for my HTML page (index.html): <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Theme Upload</title> </head> <body> <h2>Add your theme to our database </h2> <form method="post" action="sendmail.php"> <p>Your Email: <br> <input name="email" type="text" /> </p> <p> Theme's name: <br /> <input name="tname" type="text" size="35" /> </p> <p>Developer's name: <br> <input name="dname" type="text" size="35" /> </p> <p>Theme's description: <br> <textarea name="desciption" cols="45" rows="3"></textarea> </p> <p>Screenshot link 1: <br> <input name="ss1" type="text" size="40" /> <p>Screenshot link 2: <br> <input name="ss2" type="text" size="40" /> </p> <p>Screenshot link 3: <br> <input name="ss3" type="text" size="40" /> <blockquote> <p> <input type="submit" /> <input name="" type="reset" value="Reset" /> </p> </blockquote> </form> </body> </html> Here is the code for my PHP page: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <body> <p> <?php $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; $tname = $_REQUEST['tname'] ; $dname = $_REQUEST['dname'] ; $description = $_REQUEST['description'] ; $ss1 = $_REQUEST['ss1'] ; $ss2 = $_REQUEST['ss2'] ; $ss3 = $_REQUEST['ss3'] ; $return = ("<br />"); $message = $tname . $return . $dname . $return . $description . $return . $ss1 . $return . $ss2 . $return . $ss3; mail( "[email protected]", "Theme", $message, "From: $email" ); header( "Location: http://website.com/thanks.html" ); ?> </body> </html> And the thanks.html is just a simple html page.

toplay Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Don't output the HTML at the top of your script before using mail() and header().
