I do not think the problem lies with the mail function code, but with my aproach of the $_SESSION variables. I have a form consisting of 5 pages, the fifth being a preview page. Upon the final submission, on the preview page, i want the entire $_SESSION data to be sent to two different email adresses.
I am displaying the data on the preview page as follows:
<?php
//retrieve session data
echo "<b> Varname: </b>". $_SESSION['varname'];
?>
in a form with method="post" and action="mail.php".
In the mail.php, i start the session, and then:
$_SESSION['email'] = $mail;
$_SESSION['varname'] = $varname;
$email_from = 'mail#company.de';
$email_subject = "Mail";
$email_body = "You have submitted the following data: $inhalt.\n";
$to = "mymail#company.de, $mail";
$headers = "From: Company";
mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
Upon submitting the form the page goes to blank. What exactly am i doing wrong?
I managed to solve the problem in the end, as follows:
$email_from = 'mail#company.de';
$email_subject = "Mail";
$to = ("myadress#work.de," . $_SESSION['email'] . "");
mail($to,"Form submission","Form data:
Inhalt: " . $_SESSION['inhalt1'] . "
");
As I said in the question, the problem was my aproach of the $_SESSION variables. Instead of $_SESSION['varname'] = $varname, i just went directly with . $_SESSION['varname'] .ยด.

I've searched and searched for something similar, but i think i'm not doing it right. So i will ask a question. This is very basic. My problem is as follows:
I have a multi-page form, consisting of 4 pages + 1 preview page. On the preview page, upon submitting i want the entire form data to be sent to 2 different mail adresses. One standard, and the other one, the one that the user has submitted.
So i have:
<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$visitor_email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
?>
<?php
$email_from = 'mail#company.com';
$email_subject = "New Form submission";
$email_body = "You have received a new message from the user $name.\n".
"Here is the message:\n $message".
$to = "yourname#yourwebsite.com, $email /n";
$headers = "From: Company";
mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
?>
How should I insert the submitted $email variable in order for it to work?
Remove the \n
$to = 'yourname#yourwebsite.com,' . $visitor_email;
According to the mail() function documentation the $to parameter will take a comma-separated list of addresses as you have attempted, but should have no line break at the end.
Also, your variable is $visitor_email, rather than $email.
$to = "yourname#yourwebsite.com, $visitor_email";
You might also consider adding the visitor's email as a CC or BCC rather than the TO address. In that case, add it as a CC or BCC header (separated by \r\n), but you need to be cautious to be sure that the address is an email address and contains no line break characters which could be used for header injection.
// The From should be an email address
$headers = "From: company#example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "CC: $visitor_email;
Everyone knows? about avatar url in tumblr api / read / json?
like for example the facebook?
http://graph.facebook.com/[your facebook id]/picture?type=normal
<?php
$tumblog = 'natadec0c0'; // change to your username
// if your Tumblog is self hosted, you need to change the base url to the location of your tumblog
$baseurl = 'http://' . $tumblog . '.tumblr.com';
$request = $baseurl . '/api/read/json';
$ci = curl_init($request);
curl_setopt($ci,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$input = curl_exec($ci);
curl_close($ci);
// Tumblr JSON doesn't come in standard form, some str replace needed
$input = str_replace('var tumblr_api_read = ','',$input);
$input = str_replace(';','',$input);
// parameter 'true' is necessary for output as PHP array
$value = json_decode($input,true);
$content = $value['posts'];
$blogInfo = $value['tumblelog'];
// the number of items you want to display
$item = 10;
// Echo the blog info
echo "<h3>" . $blogInfo['title'] . "</h3>\n";
echo "<h4>" . $blogInfo['picture'] . "</h4>\n<hr />\n";
?>
how to append my current avatar?
A better solution for this is to put the Avatar api in an img tag.
api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/{base-hostname}/avatar[/size]
example: <img src='http://api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/myreallycoolblog.tumblr.com/avatar/48'/>
So as long as you have the blogname, you can display the avatar.
I guess you have to use
GET http://www.tumblr.com/api/authenticate?email=user#example.com&password=12345
to get the avatar of the user. The sample response for mine is
<tumblr version="1.0">
<user default-post-format="html" can-upload-audio="1" can-upload-aiff="1" can-ask-question="1" can-upload-video="1" max-video-bytes-uploaded="26214400" liked-post-count="134"/>
<tumblelog title="ABNKKPGPiCTuReNPLaKo?!" is-admin="1" posts="301" twitter-enabled="0" draft-count="0" messages-count="0" queue-count="" name="arvn" url="http://arvn.tumblr.com/" type="public" followers="17" avatar-url="http://28.media.tumblr.com/avatar_b1786ec9e62d_128.png" is-primary="yes" backup-post-limit="30000"/>
<tumblelog title="i kras yu." is-admin="1" posts="1" twitter-enabled="0" draft-count="0" messages-count="0" queue-count="" name="ikrasyu" url="http://ikrasyu.tumblr.com/" type="public" followers="2" avatar-url="http://25.media.tumblr.com/avatar_02a7ef66fce8_128.png" backup-post-limit="30000"/>
</tumblr>
and get the avatar-url field of the corresponding tumblelog. Too bad there is no json format option, maybe use preg_match. You also need the email address and password of the user, or do it via OAuth.
Or you could scrape the tumblelog for the avatar.
$page = file_get_contents("http://{$tumblog}.tumblr.com/");
$avatar = preg_match('/<img src="(http.+)" alt="portrait"/', $page, $matches) ? $matches[1]: 'http://example.com/blank.png';
I'm currently working on a reminder PHP Script which will be called via Cronjob once a day in order to inform customers about smth.
Therefore I'm using the PEAR Mail function, combined with Mail_Mime. Firstly the script searches for users in a mysql database. If $num_rows > 0, it's creating a new Mail object and a new Mail_mime object (the code encluded in this posts starts at this point). The problem now appears in the while-loop.
To be exact: The problem is
$mime->headers($headers, true);
As the doc. states, the second argument should overwrite the old headers. However all outgoing mails are sent with the header ($header['To']) from the first user.
I'm really going crazy about this thing... any suggestions?
(Note: However it's sending the correct headers when calling $mime = new Mail_mime() for each user - but it should work with calling it only once and then overwriting the old headers)
Code:
// sql query and if num_rows > 0 ....
require_once('/usr/local/lib/php/Mail.php');
require_once('/usr/local/lib/php/Mail/mime.php');
ob_start();
require_once($inclPath.'/email/head.php');
$head = ob_get_clean();
ob_start();
require_once($inclPath.'/email/foot.php');
$foot = ob_get_clean();
$XY['mail']['params']['driver'] = 'smtp';
$XY['mail']['params']['host'] = 'smtp.XY.at';
$XY['mail']['params']['port'] = 25;
$mail =& Mail::factory('smtp', $XY['mail']['params']);
$headers = array();
$headers['From'] = 'XY <service#XY.at>';
$headers['Subject'] = '=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode('Subject').'?=';
$headers['Reply-To'] = 'XY <service#XY.at>';
ob_start();
require_once($inclPath.'/email/templates/files.mail.require-review.php');
$template = ob_get_clean();
$crfl = "\n";
$mime = new Mail_mime($crfl);
while($row = $r->fetch_assoc()){
$html = $head . $template . $foot;
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);
#$to = '=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode($row['firstname'].' '.$row['lastname']).'?= <'.$row['email'].'>'; // for testing purpose i'm sending all mails to webmaster#XY.at
$to = '=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode($row['firstname'].' '.$row['lastname']).'?= <webmaster#XY.at>';
$headers['To'] = $to; // Sets to in headers to a new
$body = $mime->get(array('head_charset' => 'UTF-8', 'text_charset' => 'UTF-8', 'html_charset' => 'UTF-8'));
$hdrs = $mime->headers($headers, true); // although the second parameters says true, the second, thrid, ... mail still includes the To-header form the first user
$sent = $mail->send($to, $hdrs, $body);
if (PEAR::isError($sent)) {
errlog('error while sending to user_id: '.$row['id']); // personal error function
} else {
// Write log file
}
}
There is no reason to keep the old object and not creating a new one.
Use OOP properly and create new objects - you do not know how they work internally.
OK. I finally got my zend form working, validating, filtering and sending the contents to my process page (by using $form->populate($formData);)
Now, how do I email myself the contents of a form when submitted? Is this a part of Zend_form or some other area I need to be looking in?
Thanks!
You can use Zend Mail for this, Zend form does not offer such functions.. but its an nice idea.
In your controleller, after $form->isValid();
if ($form->isValid($_POST)) {
$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$values = $form->getValues();
$mailText = 'My form valueS: ';
foreach ($values as $v) {
$mailText .= 'Value ' . $v . PHP_EOL;
}
$mail->setFrom('user#user.de', 'user');
$mail->AddTo('Me#me.de', 'me');
$mail->setSubject->$form->getName();
$mail->send();
} else {
// what ever
}
I have a PHP form that mail()s the form data on submit and then if successful returns them to the referring page (in other words keeping them on the same page as the form) and appends ?success=TRUE to the URL.
The question is, how would I implement the AdWords and Yahoo Search Marketing conversion code snippets to trigger only when the form is submitted? For functionality purposes, it is unfortunately not feasible to send them to another page on submit which would have been the easiest way to do it.
The relevant code from the form submit action that mails the results and sends them back to the homepage is below. I have a hunch it might be as simple as outputting the conversion tracking code snippets in the if statement at the end there but I'm not sure if that is correct or the syntax to properly do that.
if ( isset($_POST['sendContactEmail']) )
{
$fname = $_POST['posFName'];
$lname = $_POST['posLName'];
$phone = $_POST['posPhone'];
$email = $_POST['posEmail'];
$note = $_POST['posText'];
$to = $yourEmail;
$subject = $yourSubject;
$message = "From: $fname $lname\n\n Phone: $phone\n\n Email: $email\n\n Note: $note";
$headers = "From: ".cleanPosUrl($_POST['posFName']. " " .$_POST['posLName'])." \r\n";
$headers .= 'To: '.$yourName.' '."\r\n";
$mailit = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
if ( #$mailit ) {
header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?success=true');
}
else {
header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?error=true');
}
}
Outputting it in the if-Statement would be a possibility, but the script you posted adds another way to do it as it redirects to the $referringPage - if the mail was successfully sent. And that's the only event you want to track a conversion.
So edit the code of $referringPage (the page that holds the form fields) and add:
<?php
if($_GET['success'] == 'true') {
echo "...";
}
?>
"..." ofcourse has to be replaced by the Adwords conversion Code Google gave you.
If you add it to your question, I could even add it to my answer.
