Im trying to use PHPMailer and been getting an error that the Message body empty or the screen is blank and does not print that the message has been sent. My folder structure is everything is in the same folder for testing in case anyone needs to know. I have also followed this post but did not seem to work. PHPMailer Mailer Error: Message body empty

I have put the echos in the code for troubleshooting to see if it is getting the data or not. I think this is honestly something to do with Gmail for the mail hosting. But its what they use. Thank you in advanced with any direction you can provide.

I have following piece of code. It returns message "send successfully " but we won't receive email at given gmail, Is this code right or have I missed something?
<?php
require("mailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php");
require("mailer/class.smtp.php");
require("mailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$name=$_POST['Your_Name'];
$email=$_POST['Your_Email'];
$message=$_POST['Your_Msg'];
echo $name ;
$mail = new PHPMailer();
// set mailer to use SMTP
//$mail->IsSMTP();
// As this email.php script lives on the same server as our email server
// we are setting the HOST to localhost
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // specify main and backup server
$mail->Port = "465";
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "mandarpatil0003#gmail.com"; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "Con#Soumitra1"; // SMTP password
// $email is the user's email address the specified
// on our contact us page. We set this variable at
// the top of this page with:
// $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$mail->From = $email;
// below we want to set the email address we will be sending our email to.
$mail->AddAddress("mandarpatil0003#gmail.com", "Mandar");
// set word wrap to 50 characters
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
// set email format to HTML
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "You have received feedback from your website!";
// $message is the user's message they typed in
// on our contact us page. We set this variable at
// the top of this page with:
// $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
$mail->Body = $message;
$mail->AltBody ="Name : {$name}\n\nEmail : {$email}\n\nMessage : {$message}";
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
else
{
echo "Thank you for contacting us. We will be in touch with you very soon.";
}
?>
Does this code have any problems or do I have to try a different approach?
<?php

//Attach a file here if any or comment this line,
$send = $mail->Send(); //Send the mails
if($send){

if($send_contact){

else {
echo "ERROR";

?>
The contents of the textboxes doesen't appear in the mail.
Any ideas?
I normally use PHPMailer to send emails with php. Here's and example to send an email via gmail using an html file as body and attaching an image:
<?php
/**
* This example shows settings to use when sending via Google's Gmail servers.
*/
//SMTP needs accurate times, and the PHP time zone MUST be set
//This should be done in your php.ini, but this is how to do it if you don't have access to that
date_default_timezone_set('Etc/UTC');
require '../PHPMailerAutoload.php';
//Create a new PHPMailer instance
$mail = new PHPMailer;
//Tell PHPMailer to use SMTP
$mail->isSMTP();
//Enable SMTP debugging
// 0 = off (for production use)
// 1 = client messages
// 2 = client and server messages
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2;
//Ask for HTML-friendly debug output
$mail->Debugoutput = 'html';
//Set the hostname of the mail server
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
// use
// $mail->Host = gethostbyname('smtp.gmail.com');
// if your network does not support SMTP over IPv6
//Set the SMTP port number - 587 for authenticated TLS, a.k.a. RFC4409 SMTP submission
$mail->Port = 587;
//Set the encryption system to use - ssl (deprecated) or tls
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
//Whether to use SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//Username to use for SMTP authentication - use full email address for gmail
$mail->Username = "username#gmail.com";
//Password to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Password = "yourpassword";
//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('from#example.com', 'First Last');
//Set an alternative reply-to address
$mail->addReplyTo('replyto#example.com', 'First Last');
//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('whoto#example.com', 'John Doe');
//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer GMail SMTP test';
//Read an HTML message body from an external file, convert referenced images to embedded,
//convert HTML into a basic plain-text alternative body
$mail->msgHTML(file_get_contents('contents.html'), dirname(__FILE__));
//Replace the plain text body with one created manually
$mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';
//Attach an image file
$mail->addAttachment('images/phpmailer_mini.png');
//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
TIPS:
1 - Check other PHPMailer examples.
2 - PHPMailer Troubleshooting.
3 - Set SMTPDebug = 2 or higher, to see what the remote SMTP server says.
4 - You may have to enable less secure apps on you gmail account.
Here is my code, for some reasons.. it is working perfectly fine in my localhost and it can send email with HTML content and is rendered perfectly. When I upload my codes on the production, the email seems to be in text format and all the HTML tags are shown. What to do with this kind of issue?
There are no errors and email is sent (based from the error info on the last part of the code), its just the rendering of the BODY Im having trouble with. Thanks!

This question in now closed. Thank you! You may check the answer from below.
Calling the isHTML() method after the $mail->Body has been set solved the problem for me:
$mail->Body = $Body;
$mail->IsHTML(true); // <=== call IsHTML() after $mail->Body has been set.
Issue now closed! Thanks :D
am working on a website for my client, i want the application to read the content of the html and send an email to the customer's email, but i want to display some variables which the customer entered in the html content and send it via email. This is my code.
this is the html code:
<p> {$cname} </p>

You are store the data in session. So you can use those to show it back. Use this
<p> <?php echo $_SESSION['cname'] ?> </p>

Your data already sotred in session. So till session get distroyed you can use those variable as well.
some ref , but is just replace test '{$XXX}' , not are real php var
$replace_values = array(
'$cname' => $_SESSION['cname'],
);
$result = preg_replace_callback('!\{(\$\w+)\}!', function($ma) use ($replace_values) {
if(isset($ma[1]) && isset($replace_values[$ma[1]])){
return $replace_values[$ma[1]];
}
return '';

I tried using summernote
and PHP Mailer to sent the contents to my e-mail.
But the e-mail does not appear to be in HTML form eventhough I put :
$mail->IsHTML(true); //set email format to HTML
Below is my code for sending e-mail:
require '../PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); //set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "mail.xxxyy.com"; //specify SMTP mail server
$mail->Port = "2525"; //specify SMTP Port
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; //turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "xxxxx#xxxxx.com"; //Full SMTP username
$mail->Password = "xxxxx"; //SMTP password
$mail->From = "xxxxx#xxx.com";
$mail->FromName = "xxxxx";
$mail->AddAddress("xxxxxx", "Mei Yi");
$mail->WordWrap = 50; //optional, you can delete this line
$mail->IsHTML(true); //set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = "RE:". $_POST[txtFeedbackSubject2];
$mail->Body = htmlspecialchars($_POST['content']);
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message could not be sent.
";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo "Message has been sent";
The e-mail content appears to be like this:
<span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; text-decoration: underline;\">Aadadssdasadsad.</span>
Please advice.
Thanks.
You're applying htmlspecialchars to the body, which will prevent the HTML from being rendered. Don't do that.
Apart from that, your message body will be whatever is in $_POST['content'], over which PHPMailer has no control.
