Intro

Here on C-W-M we have had a lot of interest lately in using PHP mail functions. PHP provides an easy way to collect information on your website. Everything from a contact form to an online survey, to a ?Tell a Friend? script can be built from a few easy to learn pieces of code. This brief tutorial is the first part of a series PHP Mail Form Script Tutorials.

Let's Begin

This is mail function for PHP in its simplest form:

Code:
mail ( string to, string subject, string message)

The arguments are strings. So that using it might look like:

Code:
mail ( ?to@emailaddress.com?, ?This is my subject line?, ?This is my message. \n The \n to the left of this text makes a new line?)

You can send additional arguments to the function including additional headers and parameters.
ie:

Code:
mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]])

Reference the mail function in the PHP manual here:
