Desperate need of Help with a partial completed PHP script..almost done

[craschnburn]

Hey guys.

Just something simple here.

Here are the following scripts I have for my php scripts.



<?

PRINT "<center><FONT SIZE=-1 face=verdana>"; PRINT "$contact_name, thank you for filling out our online quote submission form.";
PRINT "</center><p><center><TABLE border=0 width=500";
PRINT "cellspacing=0 cellpadding=7>"; PRINT "<TR><TD><FONT SIZE=-1 face=verdana>"; PRINT "Your $quantity quantity of $job_name $job_type job have been submitted to West Coast Graphics. You should be receiving a confirmation email at $email email address within the next 5 minutes. If you have not received this confirmation email, please contact us at (916) 641-5790. If you have any other comments, feel free to contact us by phone or by email at quotes@westcoastgraphics.com.
We appreciate your business with West Coast Graphics as we are always looking to improve our ways to better service your printing needs.";
PRINT "<br>Thank you,<br>";
PRINT "West Coast Graphics";
PRINT "</FONT></TD></TR></TABLE></center>";

mail("$email", "Your Request for $job_type quotes", "Hello $contact_name,
\nThank you for submitting a quote through our online submission process. This email confirms that you have successfully requested a quote for $quantity of $job_name $job_type job. A West Coast Graphics associate will process your request and fax your quote to $fax. If this is the wrong fax number, please contact us 916-641-5790.
\nThank you once again.\nWest Coast Graphics");

mail("quotes@westcoastgraphics.com", "Request for $quantity $job_type Quote Online", "A request for a quote has been submitted through our online form:
\n\n\n ");
?>



Here's my problem. When the emails get sent, the from field comes up as it is from redbarnnetwork.net. How would I edit the From field in PHP?

Desperate need of help. Please? Thank you.

Hello again Jubba. Thanks for the help again. Here's my problem though. I just tried it, but it didn't work. When I get the email after they fill out my online form, the from field comes up as it is from httpd@redbarnnetworks.net. Any ideas or solutions?

[Jubba]

you tried adding headers? you have to edit the headers to get the e-mail to say what you want it to say. Your script is too messy for me to edit. so i'll do this:



<?
$to = "whatever@whereever.com";
$subject = "subject";
$message = "message";
$headers = "From: YourName <WhateverEmailAddressYouwant>";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

I don't know what you want it so say so I can't be more specific...
