send more than just "textarea" in email

[slyvsspy]

How would I go about sending a customer's personal information that is pulled from a record in a MySQL database. My problem is that it only sends the "<textarea>" for the message but I want to also include the customers personal information in the message that is sent to my email.

Here is the form::

<form method="post" action="sendmail.php">
<input name="email" type="hidden" value="<? echo $row["email"]; ?>" />
Work Order: (Description of work to be performed)<br />
<textarea name="message" rows="15" cols="40">
Start Order Here...
</textarea><br />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

Here is the PHP processor::
<?
$email = $REQUEST['email'] ;
$message = $REQUEST['message'] ;
mail( "[e-mail]", "Work Order Form",
$message, "From: $email" );
?>

Basically the question is how do I send more in the message than just what is typed in the "<textarea>".

Thanks,

Hi there

Just concatenate something more to $message...
For example, if you want to put at the top the name of the guy(assuming that such variable exists):

$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; 
$message = $_REQUEST['message']; 
$name=$_REQUEST['name'];

$message=$name.$message;

mail( "[e-mail]", "Work Order Form", 
$message, "From: $email" ); 

That way you'll have the name "glued" to the beginning of the message, of course that you can format that to meet your requirements.

Hope this helps 🙂

//While Statement to get records

$message = $_REQUEST['message'].$var_from_mysql_cust_name ;
