Sending variables via email

[realtek]

Hello,

Is it possible to send a variable through email? I am using the following code:

mail('[e-mail]', 'Account Change Details', '$username, $newpassword, $email');

This seems to actually send the variable and not the contents of the variable.

If anyone can help, that would be grate.

Thanks all,

Nick

Hey realtek,

Bare this in mind when you code:

mail(string recipient, string subject, string body, string additional_headers)
Keep in mind that each extra header must be separated by a single newline character.

Im not sure what you are trying to achieve with your code below, but try the above structure out making sure that you separate each parameter with a " , " and each variable should be enclosed within the " " parenthesis.

Hope that works.

Like Wilzy mentioned, you need to keep your mail() in order.

Compile the message first, something like:

$content="Name: $name\nPassword: $password\n";

mail('[e-mail]', 'Account Change Details', $content, 'From:[e-mail]');
