I have a simple echo statement that's supposed to display a link on the web page, but all it's doing is showing exactly "<a href=website.com>Link</a>" (without the quotes). To me, this should work with no problem. I thought maybe it's because the HTML for the website is in one file while the PHP is in another file.
foreach ($output as $output)
{
echo 'DATE: ' . $output['date'] . "\n";
echo 'TO: ' . $output['to'] . "\n";
echo 'FROM: ' . $output['from'] . "\n";
echo 'SUBJECT: ' . $output['subject'] . "\n";
echo "<a href=website.com>Link</a>\n\n";
}
Your loop isn't a valid one, you have $output as $output.
I also suggest printing $output before looping through it, to see if it even contains what you think it should.
In your 'a' tag, the actual URL needs to be in quotes
<a href='http://www.website.com'>
Thank you for anyone who can help me with this!
What i have is an oracle database and i display all open work tickets using while and oci_fetch_row (page pickupready.php).
Each row is displayed in the table and has a checkbox to click on. User clicks multiple checkboxes selecting the rows (work tickets) they need and click Submit button.
New page (sendpickup.php) opens only showing table with rows that were selected by user. Then user has an ability to type quantity for each of the rows and then they click Send Pickup button which should email this output with their entered quantities and pickup times.
My question is how to grab everything that was output on that page + user edited information and email it using php mail() function?
This is my sendpickup.php page:
echo "<form action='' method='post'>";
echo "<table class = 'pickup'>\n";
echo "<tr style='background-color: orange'>\n";
echo "<th>CXL Date</th><th>Customer</th>";
echo "<th>WO #</th><th>Lot #</th><th>Style</th><th>Color</th><th>Original Qty</th>";
echo "<th>Cut Qty</th><th>Cut Date</th><th>Pickup Qty</th><th>Pickup Time</th>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr style='background-color: #FFFFFF'>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[1] !== null ? htmlentities($row[1], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[2] !== null ? htmlentities($row[2], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[3] !== null ? htmlentities($row[3], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[4] !== null ? htmlentities($row[4], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[5] !== null ? htmlentities($row[5], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[6] !== null ? htmlentities($row[6], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[7] !== null ? htmlentities($row[7], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[8] !== null ? htmlentities($row[8], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td>".($row[9] !== null ? htmlentities($row[9], ENT_QUOTES) : " ")."</td>\n";
echo "<td><input size= '5' style = 'color: red; font-weight: bold' value = $row[8]></td>";
echo "<td><input size= '5' style = 'color: red; font-weight: bold' value = '9 AM'></td>";
echo "</tr>\n";
echo "</table>";
echo "<input type='submit' name = 'sendpickup' value='Send Pickup'>";
echo "</form>";
Then i use following to send an email:
if (isset($_POST['sendpickup']))
{
$to = 'wip#abc.com';
$subject = 'READY FOR PICKUP';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'To: WIP <wip#abc.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: ABC User<wip#abc.com>' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
header( 'Location: pickupready.php');
}
Basically my page sendpickup.php works correctly, mail() function works too and my only problem is how to grab data for my $message variable.
i can use grab everything from sql output and assign to this variable but i cannot figure out how to send user information filled out in these 2 input boxes:
echo "<td><input size= '5' style = 'color: red; font-weight: bold' value = $row[8]></td>";
echo "<td><input size= '5' style = 'color: red; font-weight: bold' value = '9 AM'></td>";
so as of right now i do something very basic. I select my output table by dragging mouse over it, then use a copy paste into email and email it manually. It works for time being but i really want to automate this and yet can't figure out how. I apologize if this was asked before - i tried to search but couldn't find any information and i cannot figure it out myself.
thank you again!
I am trying to send emails using the PHP mail function, but I am running into issues when it actually sends the email.
For some reason, the $to variable has a space between each character. So when it's emailed, the spaces are filled with dots. The $to email is being grabbed from a TSV file generated from a remote system that I do not control.
I have seen where people have a line where it searches for white space and deletes it but i do not want to go that route.
The CC function works perfectly.
Does anyone know what may be happening? I have seen a couple of threads and bugs but they do not match it exactly.

Revised Answer: BAD DATA HANDLING!
Whilst it may still be a UTF / Charset issue, according to the code you have provided and sample data, your data handling is incorrect. Here are some tips for you (which have been incorporated into my suggested foreach loops below).
Your text file header contains a number of fields that you would like to retrieve. These are represented as the following fields sequentially in a row, separated by tabs:
Start Time End Time Instance Type Status Endpoint Organizer ....etc
You seem to be wanting a number of these fields to be captured, and amongst them, the $coordinator value needs to contain the data within the organiser field as listed within the text file (which appears to always be an email address):
Looking at your raw tsv file, your "list" processor is processing the wrong variables as you have missed the endpoint field!! Even if you're not going to use it, you'd need to put something in there for it to work the way you have set things up. At the very best, you would be storing the value for endpoint as $coordinator, but I suspect you wouldn't be getting that far because of the way you are exploding (see point 2 below).
The file you submitted seems to be separated by tabs, yet you're exploding using spaces. Change the " " in your explode to "\t". Currently, you're probably getting junk in your variable data (as it is splitting after every space in each line) - the organiser email address is not going to ever make it into $coordinator - perhaps you could echo your variables as a test to see what I mean (and comment out your mail function while you're testing).
I have revised your foreach loop:
foreach($file as $line)
{
list($start_time, $end_time, $instance, $status, $endpoint, $coordinator) = explode("\t", $line);
$from = $SentFrom;
$to = $coordinator;
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From:" . $from . "\r\n" . "CC:" . $mailer . "," . $emailone. "," .$emailtwo;
$subject = "Test";
include_once("EmailBody.php"); // Can' really comment on what's going on here - as I don't know what is in this file ! :)
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
You are stripping 5 lines from the bottom of the file and one from the top, but I see 6 lines that need to be removed from the bottom and one from the top in your sample file. Perhaps change the -5 to -6. Or alternatively, you could do something like this in your foreach loop to instruct the routine not to send an email if the $coordinator variable is "blank" so it doesn't fail if it reads a blank line, etc:
Alternative ForEach Loop - to stop blank lines within your file causing failures:
foreach($file as $line)
{
list($start_time, $end_time, $instance, $status, $endpoint, $coordinator) = explode("\t", $line);
if (trim($coordinator) !== '')
{
$from = $SentFrom;
$to = $coordinator;
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From:" . $from . "\r\n" . "CC:" . $mailer . "," . $emailone. "," .$emailtwo;
$subject = "Test";
include_once("EmailBody.php"); // Can' really comment on what's going on here - as I don't know what is in this file ! :)
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
}
You seem to be using a Windows implementation of PHP Mail. You may not have any issues with your current message content - just be aware that any lines starting with a period/fullstop will be removed. If you have any of your message lines starting with a '.', you might need something like this:
$vardata = str_replace("\n.", "\n..", $vardata);
Looking at a hex dump of the file, your data is encoded as UTF-16, which for ASCII data includes a nul character between each character of data. You can convert with iconv()
Note: you need to run this on the original file before you try extracting the data.
$str = file_get_contents('2.tsv');
$result = iconv($in_charset = 'UTF-16LE' , $out_charset = 'UTF-8' , $str);
if (false === $result)
{
throw new Exception('Input string could not be converted.');
}
$result = substr($result, 3); // Strip BOM
file_put_contents('3.tsv',$result);
echo $result;
Alternatively you can use
$str = file_get_contents('2.tsv');
$result = mb_convert_encoding($str, 'ASCII', 'UTF-16LE'); //instead of iconv()
file_put_contents('3.tsv',$result);
I have run both successfully on my development server.
You could use trim(), to strip all sorts of whitespace characters only at the beginning and end of the string. I don't think I've seen it suggested yet.
http://nl1.php.net/trim
This function returns a string with whitespace stripped from the beginning and end of str. Without the second parameter, trim() will strip these characters:
" " (ASCII 32 (0x20)), an ordinary space.
"\t" (ASCII 9 (0x09)), a tab.
"\n" (ASCII 10 (0x0A)), a new line (line feed).
"\r" (ASCII 13 (0x0D)), a carriage return.
"\0" (ASCII 0 (0x00)), the NUL-byte.
"\x0B" (ASCII 11 (0x0B)), a vertical tab.
Im trying to embed an image within my message body but it ends up as an attachment
$mailer->Subject = APP_NAME . " - " . $name . " send you and Ad : " . $row['name'];
$mailer->IsHTML(true);
$mailer->AddEmbeddedImage('../images/namDiams.png', 'logoimg', 'namDimes.png');
//footer
$footer = "Regards<br/><br/>";
$footer .= '<table style="width: 95%">';
$footer .= '<tr>';
$footer .= '<td>';
$footer .= "<strong><span style='font-size: 15px'>NamDimes Team</span></strong><br/>
NamDimes<br/>
Contact Number: " . APP_CONTACT . "<br/>
Email: " . APP_EMAIL . "<br/>
Website: " . APP_WEBSITE . "<br/>";
$footer .= '</td>';
$footer .= '<td style="text-align:right">';
$footer .= '<img src=\"cid:logoimg\" />';
$footer .= '</td>';
$footer .= '</tr>';
$footer .= '</table>';
$mailer->Body = $body . $footer;
$mailer->AltBody="This is text only alternative body.";
$mailer->AddAttachment('../' . $row['image_path'], $row['name'] . ".jpg");
i have set everything else, including the addresses, the mail gets send out, logo image that I want embed in the body gets attached as an attachment, anyone know why?
Don't use $mailer->AddEmbeddedImage, but directly add
<img src="http://.../images/namDiams.png" /> instead.
The mail length should be lighter... And it works.
EDIT
I don't know if it will help you but there is a little mistake here :
$mailer->AddEmbeddedImage('../images/namDiams.png', 'logoimg', 'namDimes.png');
Should be
$mailer->AddEmbeddedImage('../images/namDiams.png', 'logoimg', 'namDiames.png');//the last param the second 'a' was missing...
Another topic here
I can confirm that user2189925's answer does work. However, I use the absolute path since the location of the calling script is more likely to change than the location of the image.
e.g.
<img src="C:\folder\images\namDiames.png" />
Faced the same problem, then I decided to replace the following
<img src="img/example.jpg"
with
<img src= "https://mysitename.com/img/example.jpg">
and it worked.
just give path of your image to the mail body eg: (img src="../images/cat.jpeg) it will definately work
I am trying to loop through my mysql query result and print out some of the data. What I expected was when I added "\n" to the end of the print message, it would print each message on a separate line. But for some reason its all on one line. Why is this and how can I make each message be on a separate line?
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$message = $row['action_type'] . " " . $row['identifier'] . " # " . " placeholder ";
if($row['location'] !== NULL)
{
$message += " on " . $row['location'] . "\n";
}
echo $message . "\n";
}
Your $message variable is ending with a /n when it should be \n. Try updating it to fix (unless of course, in that section of the code it's on purpose):
$message += " on " . $row['location'] . "\n";
The actual echo statement ends with a real newline, so this should work properly in a command-line, but not in a browser.
To get it to display on a new line in a browser, change the \n instances to <br />:
echo $message . "<br />";
