PHP - How To Include Sql Output Into An Outgoing Mail??
Similar TutorialsI've just setup an Apache server with a basic LAMP stack. We've decided to use Google Apps (gmail) as our mail server / host. So our ubuntu server is only serving up HTTP files. Because the server is not configured as a mail server, and we're using Gmail for our MX and mail servers, how do I go about using sending out emails via PHP on the Apache Box? I've tried installing Postfix, and configuring using this tutorial, and still a no go. http://www.blogternals.com/2009/04/30/postfix-google-apps-gmail-smtp-relay/ Any Ideas? Before, if I wanted to send a welcome letter when a user registers i'd do this. $body = "<inserted html code>"; mail('email@email.com', 'Subject', $body, $headers); Now that I am advancing in PHP, I was trying a different method, because when I did the above method, I would have to take all the HTML out of the variable to change something, like an image link, etc... I have tried doing another method, where I can actually leave all the HTML code in a separate file, so that I can easily edit it, and tried 3 things... This one works, but it doesn't pass variables: $body = file_get_contents("emailTemplate.inc.php"); mail('email@email.com', 'Subject', $body, $headers); When I do this one, the page actually just shows on the current page (naturally): $body = include("emailTemplate.inc.php"); mail('email@email.com', 'Subject', $body, $headers); Of course, this has the same effect as the include function: $body = require("emailTemplate.inc.php"); mail('email@email.com', 'Subject', $body, $headers); So my question is, how do I send a formatted HTML email, and pass variables to it, so I can personalize it by the persons name, etc, without adding the HTML to a variable, and so that I can easily update the page whenever I want, and without taking it out of the variable, and sticking back in the edited code? Any help would be appreciated! I would also like to say that I am using this code for the $headers variable too: $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'From: from@email.com <email@email.com>' . "\r\n"; Thank you in advanced! Folks, When someone click on a link on my webpage and if that Link takes the visitor off my site, then i want to make an entry in my database. But if that link goes back to some other link in my Site then i do not want to Count that link. So, is there any code that lets me detect any outgoing link Click? Cheers I have a notification system that notifies users of new comments, inside the email I have images, some of the logo, some of different people, everything shows up fine on my computer (yahoo email), however in the iPhones email application no images show up, there are just the blue squares with the question marks in them. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Code: [Select] $from = "Kithell <notifications@kithell.com>"; $headers = "From:" . $from ."\r\n"; $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $subject = name($from_id, 'fl').$action; $message = '<html><body> <style>@charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ .e-container { background-color: #FFF;position: relative;width: 90%;min-height:1px;margin-right: auto;margin-left: auto; } .e-container .e-m-header { padding: 2px; background-image: url(http://www.kithell.com/assets/tall-grey-header.png); background-repeat: repeat-x; border: 1px solid #CCC; background-position: bottom; display: block; text-align: center; } .e-container p { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; color: #666; vertical-align: text-top; display: inline-block; } .e-container .e-usr-photo { display: inline-block; margin: 10px; float: left; background-color: #F4F4F4; } .e-container p a { font-weight: bold; color: #3F60A3; text-decoration: underline; padding: 0px; float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; } .e-container .e-quotes { font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #999; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif; display: block; padding: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 75px; margin-top:10px; } .e-container .e-message { font-size: 13px; color: #333; padding: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 10px; clear: none; display: inline; }</style> <div class="e-container"><div class="e-m-header"><img src="http://www.kithell.com/assets/kithell-logo.png" /></div><img class="e-usr-photo" src="http://www.kithell.com/'.photo($from_id, 55).'" /><br /><p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.kithell.com/#/profile&id='.$from_id.'">'.name($from_id, "fl").' </a> '.$action.'<div class="e-quotes">"<p class="e-message">'.nl2br(htmlentities(stripslashes($message))).'</p>"</div></p></div></body></html>'; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); This topic has been moved to Other Web Server Software. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347009.0 Well I have a script that executes a scan on a system set to run infinitely, and I need it to echo out a message each time it loops through, but I don't want it to echo out the message with the next loop message below it, and the next one below that etc... I've tried using the flush(); function and been messing around with that with no luck. For security reasons I don't want to release any of the processing code, but here is the basic construction of the script: <?PHP ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** $RepeatIt = -1; for($g=1; $g!=$RepeatIt+1; $g++) { ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** $ScanMessage = ":.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: ".$MobName." (SCAN #$g) :.:.:"."<br/><br/>"; echo $ScanMessage; ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** } ?> At the moment it's returning: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #1) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #2) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #3) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #4) :.:.: So what I want it to do is just delete the scanning message and replace it with the next scan message so while running this script you would see just the number increment on the same line. Any suggestions? Thanks. $to=sammieave@ave.com,samuel@ave.com; $subject = "New Event Logged"; $message = "Test"; $headers = "From: Samuel<sammieave@ave.com>;\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html"; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); I am having the above code but unfortunately the error I am getting is: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable or not local in C:\xampp\htdocs\CRM\support\mailer.php on line 139 I am using magento for sending mail with condition, My code: <?php class Gta_MerchantNotification_Model_Observer { public function merchantremainder($Observer) { $order = $Observer->getEvent()->getOrder(); $order_details = $order->getAllVisibleItems(); $itemData = array(); foreach ($order_details as $list) { $incrementid = $order->getIncrementId(); $sku = $list->getsku(); $name = $list->getName(); $price = $list->getPrice(); $Qty = $list->getQtyOrdered(); $extra = $order->getIncrementId(); $message = " <tr> <!-- <td>$incrementid</td> --> <td>$sku</td> <td>$name</td> <td>$price</td> <td>$Qty</td> </tr>"; $itemData[$list->getId()] = $message; } $finalMessage = " <p>Order Id : $incrementid</p> <table border='1'> <tr> <!-- <th>Id</th> --> <th>Sku</th> <th>Product name</th> <th>Price</th> <th>Qty Ordered</th> </tr>"; if (!empty($itemData)) { foreach ($itemData as $data) { $finalMessage .= $data; } $finalMessage .= "</table>"; $this->sendMail($finalMessage); } } public function sendMail($message) { $body ="$message"; $emailTemplate = Mage::getModel('core/email'); $emailTemplate->setFromName('abc'); $emailTemplate->setBody($body); $emailTemplate->setSubject("Custom Email from observer"); $emailTemplate->setType('html'); $emailTemplate->setToEmail('abc@gmail.com'); $emailTemplate->send(); } } ?>

If order placed mail send to abc@gmail.com. I want :
1) If SKU starts with 2, email should go to the mail id abc@gmail.com,
2) If SKU starts with 3, email should go to the mail id xyz@gmail.com,
3) If SKU starts with 4, email should go to the mail id qwe@gmail.com,
FYI - If an order contains 10 items email should go separately based on SKU. But an order id the same must include all the emails.
I'm setting up a newsletter thing for my website. I have a newsletter table in MySQL: Quote +----------------+------+--------+ | email | mens | womens | +----------------+------+--------+ | test2@test.com | 1 | 1 | | test1@test.com | 1 | 0 | +----------------+------+--------+ I am using a HTML form and this PHP code I learn't from the manual, which sends out e-mail's. PHP: if ($_POST['newsletter'] == 'Mens') { $to = ''; $subject = $_POST['subject']; $body = $_POST['body']; $header = 'From: Me Someone <me@someone.com>'; mail($to, $subject, $body, $header); } What I want to do with the above code is send out an e-mail to all the e-mails in my MySQL database that are tagged '1' under mens. How would I go about doing this? I'm guessing I will have to use a MySQL query in the $to = ''; that goes something like this: $to = '$query (select from `newsletters` where `email` = 1'); ? Hello to all out there! this is my first post,so my question may sound a bit simple. :] I am studying PHP and MySQL and I tried to make a mailing form based on a mysql database. My problem occured when I tried to use the PEAR mail object. Here is my code: // THE INCLUDED FILES require_once ("attach_file.php" ); require_once ("Mail.php" ); require_once ("Mail\mime.php" ); //THE VARIABLES TAKEN FROM THE HTML FORM OR JUST CREATED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE EMAIL $my_email = "something@gmail.com"; $email_subject = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_subject']),$server_connect ); $email_body = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_body'] ),$server_connect ); $attached_file = $destination ; // the $destination variable comes from the copy() function in attach_file.php $username = "the_username@gmail.com"; $password = "the_password"; $host = "smtp.gmail.com"; $attach = new Mail_mime(); $attach -> addAttachment($attached_file); $email_body = $attach->get(); $extraheaders = array('from'=>$my_email,'to'=>$email_etaireias,'subject'=>$email_subject,'Bcc'=>$email_etaireias); $headers = $attach -> $headers($extraheaders); // HERE GIVES ME AN ERROR!!! -->Fatal error: Method name must be a string $smtp_info = array('host'=>$host,'auth'=>TRUE,'username'=>$username,'password'=>$password); $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',$smtp_info); //loop through every single line of the database until there are no more lines with data //and store each line in 3 different variables that i can use while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { $onoma_etaireias = $row['onoma_etaireias']; $email_etaireias = $row['email_etaireias']; $website_etaireias = $row['website_etaireias']; } //construct the mail function . The @ is supressing the errors created .remove it and they will be shown. $mail = @$smtp->send($email_etaireias,$headers,$email_body); As i searched here and there for a solution, i found that it has something to do with the way the mail-mime object creates the body of the email . I also tried to find a solution from the PEAR documentation. do i create the headers someway wrong????? Hello there, I've come across a issue with using PHP's mail function due to the fact I've tried a assortment of different headers yet Hotmail continues to place my sent emails in the junk folder. Here is my method of emailing my clients: function Email($AccountID, $Subject, $Message) { if($this->IsValidAccount($AccountID)) { $Account = $this->AccountKeys($AccountID); $headers .= 'To: '.$Account['account_client'].' <'.$Account['account_email'].'>' . "\r\n"; $headers .= "From: X-Host <no-reply@X-Host.co.uk>\r\n"; $headers .= "Reply-To: X-Host <no-reply@X-Host.co.uk>\r\n"; $headers .= "Return-Path: no-reply@X-Host.co.uk\r\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $headers .= "Organization: X-Host\r\n"; echo $Account['account_email']. $Subject. $Message; return mail($Account['account_email'], $Subject, $Message, $headers); } else return InvalidAccount; } So could anybody help me out please and tell me what headers I should be using. Hi all, I'm coding an automated mailer for a dentist office. They set appointment dates through a web interface, and then this appointment is mailed to the customer via PHP's mail() function. However, some users are not receving the mail. They claim that it is not even in the junk mail folder. Is it because I'm setting or not setting certain properties in the header? Should I be setting something else? Here is my code Code: [Select] ini_set("SMTP", "mail.isp-provider.net"); $headers = 'From: Schedule Manager <schedule@address.com>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: Schedule Manager <schedule@address.com>' . "\r\n" . 'Bcc: internal@address.com' . "\r\n" . 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); mail($customerAddress, $subject, $body, $headers); Note that customerAddress, subject, and body are all just regular normal strings. As I said, it works for most customers, but some customers do not receive the emails. Hi, I found a couple of topics in the search on this but can't resolve my problem.

I have a situation where I want to use an include within an include and I am having trouble with my file paths. My main header include, includes everything for each page of my site, beyond the opening of the body to incorporate my navigation etc conditionally loading in css, and loading in titles and meta data etc depending on the page in question. This header needs to reference another include called the-pod.php which is required for every page, the only trouble is I want to use / to reference the root of the server and this is breaking my code. I can't use ../../ etc as its a different path depending on where the master file is located. So my question is how do I get around this? Can the root of the server or path to the root be stored in a variable? and if so how would I write this. Any tips / advice will be greatly appreciated. CanI put one INCLUDE statement INSIDE of another INCLUDE statement? Hi Guys.. Merry Christmas Im kinda new to this fantastic world of PHP and i have a little problem i hope you can help me with. Im trying to build a website where I use include() to genereate my content. On my index.php i have a menu which includes content in a content div from external .php pages, my structure kinda goes like this.. (simplified) site/ index.php content/ fronpage.php products.php contact.php The HTML looks like this. <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="index.php?page=frontpage">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="index.php?page=products">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="index.php?page=contact">frontpage</a></li> </ul> </div <div id="main"> <?php include('/content/'.$_GET['page'].'.php'); ?> </div> This all works very fine, but my problem is, can I have a include inside an already included page? I would like to have a menu on my products.php site, but that page is already included from above, and i would like the menu on the products.php site to stay as the content from the nested include changes with input from the /products folder. my idea was something like this. site/ index.php content/ frontpage.php products.php contact.php products/ product1.php product2.php the HTML on the index.php is the same as above and then i would add the include() on the products.php page, so its kinda the same thing, but one inside the other. HTML inside the products.php folder <div id="sub_menu"> <ul> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> </ul> </div <div id="sub_main"> <?php include('/content/products'.$_GET['#'].'.php'); ?> </div> I dont know how to link to the new files so they will be included while the first include still stays on the page. Any of you know how and if this can be done? Or maybe at better way to do it? Hope this made sense, my first PHP question Thanks this worked and stopped, no error no idea why is this a conflict? Code: [Select] echo("<meta http-equiv = refresh content=0;url=".$url_success.">"); mail($to_supplier, $subject_supplier, $message_supplier, $headers_supplier); $ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers); Hello Everyone I have written a simple mail function to be emailed to a certain person on submission.

This is my code so far without any code for file attachment <?php $project_name = $_POST['project_name']; $needed = $_POST['date_needed']; $submitted = $_POST['date_submitted']; $department = $_POST['department']; $contact = $_POST['contact_person']; $extension = $_POST['extension']; $project_type = $_POST['project_type']; $published = $_POST['date_last_published']; $description = $_POST['description']; $color = $_POST['color']; $pdf = $_POST['pdf_needed']; $web = $_POST['web_needed']; $quanity = $_POST['quanity']; $email = "mdmartiny@sc4.edu"; $subject = "SC4 Graphics Design Service Request Form"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $message = "<html><body> <table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"5px\" > <tr><td></td> <td>Project name: $project_name</td> <td></td> <td>Date needed by: $needed</td> </tr> <tr> <tr> <td></td> <td colspan=\"3\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><strong><font size=\"+1\">Submitted to graphic designer</font></strong></td></tr> <tr><td height=\"25\"></td><td>Date $submitted</td><td>Department $department</td><td></td></tr> <tr><td height=\"25\"></td><td>Contact Person $contact</td><td>Extension $extension</td><td></tr> <tr><td height=\"25\"></td><td>Type of project $project_type</td><td colspan=\"2\">Approximate date of last publication $published</td></tr> <tr><td height=\"25\"></td><td colspan=\"3\">Project description/special instructions</td> <tr><td></td>><td colspan=\"3\">$description</td></tr> <tr><td height=\"25\"></td><td>Color $color</td><td>PDF needed $pdf</td><td>Website update needed $web</td></tr> <tr><td ></td><td>Estimated print quanity $quanity</td><td></td><td></td></tr> <tr> <td colspan=\"4\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><hr height=\"5\"/> <strong><font size=\"+1\">Graphics office use only</font></strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"25\" width=\"2%\"> </td> <td width=\"34%\">Print Shop Color copier</td> <td colspan=\"2\">Print Vendor_______________________________________</td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"25\"> </td> <td><strong><font size=\"+1\">Project tracking</font></strong></td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"25\"> </td> <td colspan=\"3\">Received by graphic designer_______________________ Date _______</td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"25\"> </td> <td colspan=\"3\"> <table width=\"100%\" height=\"35\"> <tr> <td>Approved by executive director__________ Date_________</td><td><input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions needed<br /><input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions made ______ Date_______</td><tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"25\"> </td> <td colspan=\"3\">Completed and spell checked by graphic designer___________________________ Date__________</td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td align=\"center\" colspan=\"3\"> <table cellpadding=\"10px\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"1\" width=\"100%\"> <tr bgcolor=\"#CCCCCC\"> <td> <table> <tr> <td> Proofread by marketing coordinator __________ Date__________</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Proofread by secretary __________ Date__________ </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td> <input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions needed <br> <input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions made ____ Date_____ </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td colspan=\"3\"> <table width=\"100%\" height=\"75\"> <tr> <td>Proofread by executive director______ Date______ </td><td><input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions needed<br /> <input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions made ______ Date_______</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td colspan=\"3\"> <table width=\"100%\" height=\"75\"> <tr> <td> Approval by requesting department __________ Date_________ <br /> <strong><font size=\"-1\">(Include all paperwork when returning)</font></strong></td><td><input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions needed<br /><input type=\"checkbox\"> Revisions made ______ Date_______</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <td></td height=\"25\"> <td colspan=\"3\">Final approval by executive director _________________________________________ Date_________ </td> </tr> <tr> <td height=\"75\"></td> <td><input type=\"checkbox\"> Printed ____ Date _____</td> <td colspan=\"2\"><input type=\"checkbox\"> PDF created _____ Date _____<br /> <input type=\"checkbox\"> Website updated _____ Date _____</td> </tr> </table>"; $message .= "</body></html>"; mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers, "From: $email"); echo "The email has been sent."; ?> When I put this above all else in my document and test it offline, all I see is code in the browser. But when I test it on my web server, I can view the markup and whatnot. Does anyone know why this is? |
