Do I have to use:mail($whatever && $nextfor all the fields or would there be an eaiser way to do it.Thanks[/quote]It really depends on how you want to format your message, here is an example of a way to send the mail:[code]//this will show whatever is entered in the fullname input on your form //<input type="text" name="fullname">$mail_body = "Name: " . $_REQUEST['fullname'] . "\n"; // "\n" sends it to the next line$mail_body .= "Email: " . $_REQUEST['email'] . "\n"; $mail_body .= "Message: " . $_REQUEST['message'];// ".=" is used for adding to the end of the string that already existsmail("youremail@whatever.com", "Your Subject", $mail_body);[/code]If you would like to use HTML in your message or you would like to modify the e-mail headers so that you can use CC, BCC, or other features. For more information about using the mail function and some better examples than the one i wrote above go straight to the comments on the online documentation.
