Send this page to a friend code

[Anon]

Hi,

I urgently need code for "Send this page to a friend" which is found on many sites.

The purpose of the script is to send the page(HTML or PHP) to the given email address which the visitor gives.

Thanks in advance,
Vijay

In PHP you can access the name of the page using:

<?php

$thisPage = $PHP_SELF . $QUERY_STRING;

?>

Then you can just take that variable and mail it to whatever email address a user wants. Obviously, you can't do this with an HTML page... only on a PHP script. Here's an example of the form you might want to use:

<Form action="MailToFriend.php">
Friend Email:<Input type=text name="friendEmail">
Your Email:<Input type=text name="yourEmail">
<Input type=hidden name="pageToSend" value="<?= $PHP_SELF . $QUERY_STRING ?>">
<Input type=submit value="Email Page!">
</Form>

Then in a script called MailToFriend.php you'll have the variables:

$friendEmail (email address for To🙂
$yourEmail (email address for From🙂
$pageToSend (location of page)

You can use PHP's mail() function to send the email out. See:
