The idea is that you click the link, and confirm that you want to aign up to a mailing list. I can tell that you're going to tell me that the whole method I'm using is wrong. So you click url/confirm?email=you@email.com, which Gets the email adress, signs you up and sends you another email with a little present for signing up. Thats my plan, but as you've probably guessed, I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing. Cheers for your time, Jimmy

Thanks Ray, that's exactly what I needed. This validation thing, am I ok if I limit the lenght of the email? Thankks again, hector.

I'll give that a go. What do you mean by check the email? Is it something to do with that little if at the end.

Is it possible that I have specified the wrong format in the $header variable. I've tried a lot of solutions to this problem, but what ever I do I get the same result as described above. Or, am I doing something really stupid? I've spent a while staring at this one.

Hello, I'm having a lot of difficulty getting HTML into an email. The link won't function in the email: <p> To confirm, <a>click this link </a> </p> is what appears in the email. I think it must be to do with the " or ' around the $body bit. tried various things, but I can't make it work. Help! [code]<?php $headers ="From:newsletter@northavenspeakers.com\r\n"; $headers .="Reply-To:newsletter@northavenspeakers.com\r\n"; $headers .="Content-Type: text/html;\r\n charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\r\n"; if (isset( $_POST['submit'])) { $email = $_POST['email']; $body = ' <html> <head> <title> Subscription to Northaven Speakers Club </head> </head> <body> <P> You have subscribed to receive Northaven Speakers Club newsletter </P> <P> To confirm, <a "href=www.thethingis.co.uk/speakers/confirm?email=?'.$email.'">click this link </a> </P> </body> </html>'; mail ($_POST['email'], "Subscribe to Northaven Speakers", $body, $headers); echo "trying to send something"; unset ( $_POST['submit'] ) ; }; ?>[/code]
