I have a form I am using to simply capture a name and email from a user. When the user submits the form an email is then fired to the specified recipient containing a link.
I had this all working but realised I needed to add a html footer to the email which was originally being read as plain text.
After doing some digging I have now tried to set the footer to read as html ,but the email no longer sends. I am not a php developer.
My question is have I missed something or am I just way off?
<?php
// configure
$from = 'Ether Solutions Sales <email#domain.co.uk>';
$sendTo = $_POST['remail'];
$subject = "test email";
$name = $_POST['name'];
$okMessage = 'your message has been sent successfully, please ask the recipient to check their inbox';
$errorMessage = 'There was an error while submitting the form. Please try again later';
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
// Create email headers
$headers .= 'From: '.$from."\r\n".'Reply-To: '.$from."\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
// Compose a simple HTML email message
$message = '<html><body>';
$message .= '<p style="margin-bottom:30px;">regards dave</p>';
$message .= 'www.domain.co.uk';
$message .= '<p style="font-color:blue;">Office Tel: 0844 000 000</p>';
$message .= '<p style="font-color:blue;">Mobile: 0000 000 0000</p>';
$message .= '<p style="font-color:blue;">Technical Support: 0845 000 0000</p>
';
$message .= '<p style="font-color:blue; font-weight:bold;">Some tagline here</p>
';
$message .= '<img src="imageurl/test.png" alt="sample alt tag"/>';
$message .= '</body></html>';
// let's do the sending
try
{
$emailText = "{$name} you have been sent an electronic document to be signed.\nTo view your document please click the following link URL: /www.domain.com";
mail($sendTo, $subject, $emailText, $message, $headers, "From: " . $from);
$responseArray = array('type' => 'success', 'message' => $okMessage);
}
catch (\Exception $e)
{
$responseArray = array('type' => 'danger', 'message' => $errorMessage);
}
if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) && strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) == 'xmlhttprequest') {
$encoded = json_encode($responseArray);
header('Content-Type: application/json');
echo $encoded;
}
else {
echo $responseArray['message'];
}
I tested your code and got this warning:
PHP Warning: mail() expects at most 5 parameters, 6 given in /home/ruemercc/public_html/lab/email2/mail.php on line 47
I would suggest you use PHPMailer library found here phpmailer
. It will allow you to even send bulk emails(Which I think will be an added advantege in your case).
Have fun coding
Your call of the mail() wrong. You are setting the parameters not correct.
Take a look in the PHP Manual for mail().
From the php manual
mail ( string $to , string $subject , string $message [, string $additional_headers [, string $additional_parameters ]] )
Your code mail($sendTo, $subject, $emailText, $message, $headers, "From: " . $from) uses message as $additional_headers which is wrong.
You have to merge your $message with the $emailText.

I am trying to send emails using a php script whose code is below. What is the error in the code? Parsing error is:
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'https' (T_STRING) in /workspace/Main.php on line 9
"""
<?php
$our_email = "agrawal.shivam#godonphone.website";

$from = $our_email;
$subject = "God Apps on Mobile Phone";
$message = "

echo 'krishna.science.blog';
Share the Love & Knowledge in your physical proximity also.

$mail = mail($to, $subject, $message, "From: $our_email");
if ($mail) {
echo "Mail Sent";
}
else {
echo "Error - Mail Not Sent";
}
?>
Your message is not your website PHP file. You just need to show that the message you are sending is HTML, and write pure HTML instead of using echo PHP statements.
To send HTML use
<?php
$to = 'maryjane#email.com';
$subject = 'Marriage Proposal';
$from = 'peterparker#email.com';
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
// Create email headers
$headers .= 'From: '.$from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
// Compose a simple HTML email message
$message = '<html><body>';
$message .= '<h1 style="color:#f40;">Hi Jane!</h1>';
$message .= '<p style="color:#080;font-size:18px;">Will you marry me?</p>';
$message .= '</body></html>';
// Sending email
if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)){
echo 'Your mail has been sent successfully.';

Send HTML in email via PHP
(8 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I am trying to send a text by mail in php. The message is placed inside a HTML tag. While sending, the mail part works but the text I receive has HTML tags in it.
Here is the code for better understanding of my issue:
$car = "1223455667";
$to = "something#sample.com";
$subject = 'Test Mail';
$message = '<p>' . $car . '</p>';
$from = 'mymail#sample.com';
if(mail($to, $subject, $message )){
echo 'success';
}else{
echo 'Unable to send the email. Please try again.';
}
Output I receive in mail:
I expect the output like this: 1223455667
Pass Headers in your mail
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers )){
echo 'success';
}else{
echo 'Unable to send the email. Please try again.';
}
my form is working as intended but for some reason the email will only send to one of my email accounts and not the other I am putting the right email in the email field so that isn't the issue however I can't seem to see where I am going wrong I assume it's because I'm using $email to grab the email address to where the 2nd email is suppose to go...here is my php where am I going wrong?
<?php

Thank you in advance if anyone can crack it
You don't have $email assigned when you are defining $to so your second address is not set.
Demo: https://3v4l.org/QIIJu
Solution, move the $to assignment to later in the script. Also use error reporting, this would have thrown an undefined variable notice.
e.g.
<?php
$from = 'Pixel Wars - Press Inquiry';
$subject = 'Press Inquiry from Pixelwars.com';
....
$to = "my-email#gmail.com, $email";
$result = #mail($to, $subject, $body ....
because at this point the $email is defined. Also don't use error suppression, that is just hiding useful information. If you don't want it displayed hide the error displaying but still log them.
You need to add the multiple email address in $to
$to = "address#one.com, address#two.com, address#three.com"
Needs to be a comma delimited list of email adrresses.
mail($email_to, $email_subject, $thankyou);
Thanks

PHP mail function doesn't complete sending of e-mail

I am having a problem sending an email to the following domains:
#yahoo.com,
#hotmail.com, and
#mncgroup.com
using the PHP mail() function. But there's no problem if I send an email to #gmail.com
Is there something wrong with my code?
$to = "$email";
$subject = "[NO-REPLY]Confirmation Account Pengaduan Keluhan I-news Tv";
$header = "From: inewsit#mncgroup.com \r\n";
$header .= "Akun Information MNC Biro";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
$message = "<!DOCTYPE html>

<?php
when i run this code and i try to send email to 3 domain above, the message does not get into the email
First, try this in your code:
echo (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) ? 'Message sent!' : 'Message not sent!';
Because of mail() function returns true or false depending on whether the mail was accepted for delivery. I recommend you check your spam folder at those addresses. I have heard that mail sent from the free servers due to the amount of abuse goes directly to spam.
Try this sample code for checking purpose:
<?php
$to = 'ANY EMAIL#yahoo.com';
$subject = 'ANY SUBJECT';
$message = 'ANY MESSAGE';
$headers = 'From: check#check.com' . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: no-reply#check#check.com' . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
echo (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) ? 'Message sent!' : 'Message not sent!';
?>
Try replacing all occurrences of \r\n with PHP_EOL. Something like this:
$to = "$email";
$eol = PHP_EOL;
$subject = "[NO-REPLY]Confirmation Account Pengaduan Keluhan I-news Tv";
$header = "From: inewsit#mncgroup.com $eol";
$header .= "Akun Information MNC Biro";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0$eol";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1$eol";
See if that changes anything.
Mail content:
<html><head></head><body><p> Message : 鏽嫌╒杜米土 杯屎</p>Share Link : Press here to enter <br><img src ='http://203.80.1.28/FlippingBook/development/demo/medium/Web081112_P070_medium.jpg' /></body></html>
PHP:
if (isset($_POST["data"])){
$info = explode("&", $_POST["data"]);
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n';
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset = \"UTF-8\";\n";
$headers = "From: =?UTF-8?B?" . base64_encode(substr($info[0],strpos($info[0],'=')+1, strlen($info[0]))) . "?=";
$to = substr($info[1],strpos($info[1],'=')+1, strlen($info[1]));
$subject = "=?UTF-8?B?" . base64_encode('日報分享') . "?=";
$message = trim(substr($info[2],strpos($info[2],'=')+1, strlen($info[2])));
$message = '<html><head></head><body><p> Message : '.$message;
$url = substr($info[3],strpos($info[3],'=')+1, strlen($info[3]));
$message = $message. '</p>Share Link : Press here to enter ';
if (isset($info[4])){
$firstImg = substr($info[4],strpos($info[4],'=')+1, strlen($info[4]));
$message = $message."<br><img src ='".$firstImg."' />";
}
if (isset($info[5])){
$secondImg = substr($info[5],strpos($info[5],'=')+1, strlen($info[5]));
$message = $message."<br><img src ='".$secondImg."' />";

I am writing a simple program to send email. However, my mail content is not english based so I used utf-8 to encode.
When I changed the encode method, it can not send the processed html code, instead the mail content is the raw html code shown above, how to fix this problem?
If using PEAR lib is not a problem than you can look for Pear Mail-Mime lib to send mail or HTML contents. More details you can get from here - http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail-mime.example.php
