PHP Auto response

[Ryall]

PLEASE LOOK AT MY LAST POST - I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING AND NOTHING IS WORKING - THIS IS TURNING INTO AN EXTREAM SIT.

Hey guys... PHP is definitly not my strong point, so here's the question:

I have a Flash form that sends a formatted email via a PHP script using this code:

<?
$to = "eamil@gmail.com";
$subject = "Calatrava Form Submission";
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$hear = $_POST['hear'];
$housingPref = $_POST['housingPref'];
$price = $_POST['price'];

$message = "Form Submitted by: $name \r\n";
$message .= "Address: $address \r\n ";
$message .= "Phone: $phone \r\n";
$message .= "Email: $email \r\n";
$message .= "Where they heard about this project: $hear \r\n";
$message .= "Housing Pref: $housingPref \r\n";
$message .= "Price Range: $price \r\n";
$header = "From: $name <$email>";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);

?>



I am wondering how I can modify the code so that it also sends an autoresponse email to the person that submitted the form data?

I've been looking online places, but havent found anything yet (well at least that I understand).

Peace

Simply create another mail line, and switch $to and $header, and put what you want to say in quotes.

yep, nokrev got it :D

Just looking at the code, I think you got it ;)

yeah that's fine. the .= operator means add to that string.

for example,
$me = "Harish ";
$me .= "Lall.";

It's not required that you do the .=. you can do it all in one string, but it makes it a little less confusing :D

ok this sucks :( - really bad for business for me.
this code does not send the second email (it sends the first which processes the form, but no even this short second autorespond!).

Anyone have a clue why? It all seems so illogical to me that it doesnt work which is why I am just sooo frustrated!


<?
$to = "rwalsh@grafikdesigns.com";
$subject = "Calatrava Form Submission";
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$hear = $_POST['hear'];
$housingPref = $_POST['housingPref'];
$price = $_POST['price'];

$message = "Form Submitted by: $name \r\n";
$message .= "Address: $address \r\n";
$message .= "Phone: $phone \r\n";
$message .= "Email: $email \r\n";
$message .= "Where they heard about this project: $hear \r\n";
$message .= "Housing Pref: $housingPref \r\n";
$message .= "Price Range: $price \r\n";
$header = "From: $name <$email>";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);

mail($email, "Fordham Spire", "thanks!", "info@fordhamspire.com");

?>

Peace

yeah I got everything working fine now... and it wasnt so much my PHP... it was more my server and the action script sneding the vars to it.

Thanks everyone for your help!!
