Awesome! CroNix! Thanks for your help! I figured it was a quick fix!

Hi, I have a quick question, just want to make sure I don't screw anything up before I do it. case "article": // single article item $sqlart = "SELECT * FROM Articles WHERE Article_ID = ".$_GET["id"]; $resultart = mysql_query($sqlart, $dbc); $rowart = mysql_fetch_array($resultart); $title = "mixrevu.com - Article: ".$rowart["Article_Title"]; $description = substr(strip_tags($rowart["Article_Story"]),0,100)."..."; break; case "article2": // single audio blog item $sqlart = "SELECT * FROM Articles2 WHERE Article2_ID = ".$_GET["id"]; $resultart = mysql_query($sqlart, $dbc); $rowart = mysql_fetch_array($resultart); $title = "mixrevu.com - Audio Blog: ".$rowart["Article2_Title"]; $description = substr(strip_tags($rowart["Article2_Story"]),0,100)."..."; break; As you can see above, my meta titles are displayed as ( mixrevu.com - Article " title of article is pulled here") but I want the article title to be displayed like this "title of article is pulled here" : Article - mixrevu.com. **So I just want to swap the order** Is it ok for me to swap the code on the $title line like ".$rowart["Article_Title"] :Article - mixrevu.com ????? Would I screw anything up? The question goes for "article single item and article2. If I am reading the code correctly the $sqlart to $rowart section is where the instructions are giving on what is what and the $title, $description is where I can acutally make the changes. Would I have to do anything to the inital $sqlart section????? Thanks for your help, -ivantw

mac_gyver Thanks a bunch! I went the "save as new php file and upload to my current website server" route and I'm able to preview everything once I type the address into a browser! Thanks a bunch! I'm glad I came here for help! I can see everything, make edits, re-upload and check what I need, AWESOME!! Thanks again. -ivan

mac_gyver, thanks for the response. I don't mean to sound slow, but where would I insert this?

Do I have the call and echo placed correctly? For assigning variables to the $Post values, do I need to do this to see how my $body of my email will look? If I do, can I just insert ($_POST['email'] = 'TEXT HERE' to make the page work? I just want to see how this page/email will look to make sure it works once it's sent out. Thanks for the help and my basic questions. When I try to run it as an html page I just go to Run > run in chrome to see the actual page. Is this the correct way to see he body of the email? Thanks again. -ivan

Hi, I am new to this forum and I came here because I am a website owner that is a novice in php coding and I want to adjust the coding my web designer created, because I want to update my auto email when members sign up to my site. I found my signup.php page and found the secton where the contents of the auto email are housed but I have no way (or atleast I don't know the way) to test my coding adjustments without going through the signup process on my site and I don't want to do that multiple times just to check code, so I decided to see if I could ask the questions here and maybe someone can "eyeball" my coding adjustments and ensure that they work OR maybe you can instruct me how I can test my code. Keep in mind, this is not an actual page on my site, it's the auto email when users signup. It's sent from my signup.php page once the signup button is "clicked". 1. I'll provide a snippet of the code my webdesigner setup and that should work fine 2. I'll provide my changes to the email contents (basically text, image and html links). Hopefully there is someone who can assist. Thanks A BILLION!!! -Ivan Below is the original code from my webmaster, shouldn't be anything wrong with this code.
