Mail form problem- PLEASE HELP!

[eblumrich]

Quick to the chase:

I am developing a website for a client, and he wants a mail form where folks can "send this page to a friend". I have that part up and running, but here's the rub:

The client wants each message CCd to his e-mail address. I have NO idea of how to do this.

The page is here:

http://www.governorgirlieman.com/mail.html

and the PHP script is here:

http://www.governorgirlieman.com/sendurl.php

(just go to those pages, and "view source")

Can anyone here PLEASE help me out, on this?

I have spent six hours looking all over the web, and other forums, for such information, but none of it is of any use. I'm new to PHP, and it's incomprehensible to me.

Thanks much, for any help you can provide.

in "sendurl.php"

make sure you mail function looks similar to:

$Mail_Success=mail('[e-mail]','Subject','your message','FROM: [e-mail]\n\rCC:[e-mail]');

see:

Thanks for your time and help, but:

as I stated, I am pretty clueless, and as PHP is so anal and precise, that I'm afraid to mess with the existing script, much, in fear of throwing everything out, simply because I put something where it shouldn't be.

Where would I put such a script, as you detailed in your last message?

here is the PHP script for "sendurl.php":

<?php
$myemail = "[e-mail]";
?>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.style1 {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
}
.style2 {color: #990033}
body {
background-color: #ff99ff;
}
-->
</style>

<table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width=400 height=400 ><p align="center" class="style1"><span class="style2">Thank You : <?php echo $visitor ?> ( <?php echo $visitormail ?> ) <br>
For sending : <a href="<?php echo $urlis ?>"> <?php echo $sitename ?> </a> (link)<br>
To: <?php echo $friend ?> (<?php echo $friendmail ?>) </span><br>
</p>
<div align="center"><span class="style1"><br>
<a href="<?php echo $redirectlink ?>"> Next Page </a> </span><br>
<?php
$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
if (!isset($visitormail) || !isset($friendmail))
echo "<font size=6>You Goofed</font> $ip" ;
$notes = stripcslashes($notes); $messageis = "
Your Friend: $visitor ($visitormail)\n
Sent this URL: $sitename ($urlis) \n
To: $friend $friendmail \n
With These Comments: $notes \n";

$messageme = $ip . " " . $messageis;

$from = "From: $myemail\r\n";

if ($myemail != "")
mail($myemail, $sitename, $messageme, $from);
if ($friendmail != "")
mail($friendmail, $sitename, $messageis, $from);
if ($visitormail != "")
mail($visitormail, $sitename, $messageis, $from);
?>
</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>
<!-- ******* End of php script ******** -->
</p>

Where would that thing you sent, go, exactly?

ok kill this:

if ($myemail != "")
mail($myemail, $sitename, $messageme, $from);
if ($friendmail != "")
mail($friendmail, $sitename, $messageis, $from);
if ($visitormail != "")
mail($visitormail, $sitename, $messageis, $from);

& go with :

$from .= "\r\nCC:[e-mail]";

if ( !empty($myemail) && !empty($friendmail) && !empty($visitormail ) ) mail($visitormail, $sitename, $messageis, $from);

that way you only need one mail()

Thank you very much for your help, but your code didn't work.

Simply put: This is the fifth forum that I have posted this problem to. I have been given no less than 30 "solutions" on these forums- none of which have worked.

I am going to tell my boss that this can't be done.

The PHP community- well- god bless ya, but quite frankly, I am seriously dissapointed.
