hey all, i have some php code that emails my email address with information about a customer who uses my site, the emails i get are from "anonymous@etc.etc.com" is there a way to change the email it's from? and give it a name? so when i get an email it will be from "Tom's Toys<tom@toys.com>", something like that?

Hey all, i'm designing an order system through php, the orders get emailed to my account and then the customers are taken to the payment system however, if there is an error and the email doesn't get sent and the customer pays for it, i'll have no idea what they paid for is there some form of code to make sure the email was sent successfully before continuing? and if the email fails, redirect the customer to another page? cheers,  ;D   - Joker

Hey guys, i have this website that has a Flash file that needs to save user information into an Access Database, the guys at www.flashkit.com sent me here my understanding is that flash CANNOT talk to Access and needs a "middleman" to handle database queries and whatnot i've seen 2 words thrown around alot: PHP and XML, i have a basic knowledge of both is this the way the program works? - Flash sends the data to PHP - PHP converts it to XML - PHP uploads the XML to Access - Access uses the XML to create records etc or am I way off? I really need some help here!!!!  :-[ even links to tutorials regarding my question would be great thanks!  :D   - Joker -
