PHP - Problem With Showing A Link In A Email For Outlook Express

here's my code that i've used to send an email.

Code: [Select]
$link = "<a href=\"http://www.example.com/" . $num . "\">" . $num . "</a>";

$query = "SELECT content FROM emails";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die();
$email_content = mysql_result($result, 0);
$email = sprintf($email_content, $first, $name, $from, $link, $record, $rec, $inc, $max);
$email_body = stripslashes(htmlentities($email, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));

// this is sent to another php script via post....

$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$message = nl2br(html_entity_decode($_POST['email_body']));
$to = "me@whatever.com";
$charset='UTF-8';
$encoded_subject="=?$charset?B?" . base64_encode($subject) . "?=\n";
$headers="From: " . $userEmail . "\n"
. "Content-Type: text/html; charset=$charset; format=flowed\n"
. "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
. "X-Mailer: PHP\n";
mail($to,$encoded_subject,$message,$headers);
   

in the db, emails.content is of the text type and contains several lines of text with %4$s which inserts the value of $link into the body.  when the email arrives, there is a link and it appears fine, with the value of $num hyperlinked.  however when you click on it it doesn't go anywhere.  when copying the link location from the email it gives me

x-msg://87/%22http://www.example.com/16

what is x-msg?  how can i get this to work properly?

Ok I am very new to php so please excuse my lack of knowledge.

I have a simple contact form that I have placed onto one of my sites. The form works correctly in that it get sent to the correct address without any problems.

The issue I am having is with the 'From' header. It will not show the senders email address as I would like. Instead it seems to be showing the server address.

I have been 'playing' with the code for 2 days now and I still cannot get it to work.

Any suggestions would be greatfully received.

Regards.

Code: [Select]
<?php



if(!$_POST) exit;

$email = $_POST['Email'];
$name = $_POST['Name'];
$telephone = $_POST['Telephone'];
$comments = $_POST['Comments'];






//$error[] = preg_match('/\b[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}\b/i', $_POST['email']) ? '' : 'INVALID EMAIL ADDRESS';
if(!eregi("^[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+)*" ."@"."([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]+)*)+"."\\.[a-z]{2,}"."$",$email )){
$error.="Invalid email address entered";
$errors=1;
}
if($errors==1) echo $error;
else{
$values = array ('Name','Email','Telephone','Comments');
$required = array('Name','Email','Telephone','Comments');


$your_email = "**********************";
$email_name = "Message From your Website:";


foreach($values as $key => $value){
  if(in_array($value,$required)){
if ($key != 'Name' && $key != 'Comments' && $key != 'Telephone') {
  if( empty($_POST[$value]) ) { echo 'Please go back and complete all fields, thank you.'; exit; }
}
$email_content .= $value.': '.$_POST[$value]."\n";
  }
}
 
if(@mail($your_email,$email_name,$email_content)) {
echo 'Thank you for your message, we will be in touch shortly'; 
} else {
echo 'ERROR!';
}
}

$headers = "From: $email\r\n"."Reply-To: $email\r\n".'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

@mail($your_email,$name,$email,$telephone,$comments,$headers);

?>
 

sorry, this is kinda annoying to look at but its the best way to show my problem...

this :
               Code: [Select]
$headers  = "From: $email_from\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
$email_message ='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
.'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
    mail("njdubois@gmail.com", $checktype . " Comp Check Submitted from ncaappraisals.com", $email_message, $headers);
gets me:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx! xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks a billion in advanced!

I've put together a very simple form & processing script for my site.. Everything works great except the body of the email i receive when the form is submitted contains everything but the info that has been entered into the fields. I'm sure it's something simple that I'm overlooked, but I'm officially stumped.  What am I doing wrong here? 
<?php
$mymail = 'ordietryingodt@yahoo.com';
$cc = 'New Recruit To Add!';
$BoDy = ' ';
$FrOm = 'FROM:' .$_POST['t1'];
$FrOm .= 'Reply-To:' .$_POST['t1'];
$FrOm .= 'X-MAILER: PHP'.phpversion();
$BoDy .= 'Quake Live Name: ';
$BoDy .= $_POST['t1'];
$BoDy .= "\n";
$BoDy .= 'Age: ';
$BoDy .= $_POST['t2'];
$BoDy .= "\n";
$BoDy .= 'Residing Country: ';
$BoDy .= $_POST['t3'];
$BoDy .= "\n";
$BoDy .= 'Favorite Game Type: ';
$BoDy .= $_POST['t4'];
$BoDy .= "\n";
$send = mail("$mymail", "$cc", "$BoDy", "$FrOm");

if($send)
{
echo '<html><head>';
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=/submitted.htm">';
echo '</head><body>Email send....';
echo '</body></html>';
}
?>

I have a question regarding my email form submission. The email seems to work fine, but the recipient of the email can view my server information (see attached image for example) there are many website hosted on my server and i would like to hide the server info on form submissions. does anyone know of a way to do this? thanks

I have a simple contact form with a textarea field, where the visitor can type a message in. However, if the user enters paragraphs or any type of line breaks, then the email that is sent shows the "\r\n" characters. I've tried using the nl2br function to no avail. Here's a sample code snippet:

Code: [Select]
$message = $_POST["message"];

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'From: '. $_POST["email"];

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);


Am I missing something? Besides the "\r\n" characters showing, everything else works fine.

Hi,

I've recently started working on a site that someone else created. I'm not advanced with PHP like the previous guy was, so picking it up as I go.

Currently there is an admin page for managing a database of images uploaded by users. The table on this page grabs the database field values and just fills in the table with tick boxes, etc to manage. Rather than display thumbnails of each of the images on the page directly, the website owner wants to have a list of links to images in the table (this is done), but on hovering over the link, show the thumbnail, have a pop up thumbnail right on the mouse cursor. There already exists the function to grab the thumbnail into the table, but I am unsure how to have this work in a hovering thumb image.

Any help would be great.

Hi all

I have a script that creates an email message, but I want to add a link to it to take the user to PayPal. Here's my code:

   $headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
            $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\n";
            $headers .= "From: '".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']." Booking System' <info@".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."> \n";
            $subject = "Booking Confirmed!";   
            $message = "Dear ".$name.",<br /> <br /> This is confirmation of your booking. <br />";
            $message .= "<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=4 border=0>";
            $message .= "<tr><td>Date</td><td>Time From</td><td>Time To</td></tr>";
            $message .= $tempVar;
            $message .= "</table>";
            $message .="<br />Reservation Status: Confirmed<br/>";
            $message .="<br /><br />Kind Regards, <br /> ".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']." Team";
            mail($email,$subject,$message,$headers);   

Can anyone help me add a line to the above to add the link in?

Many thanks
Pete

I am sending emails using PHPMailer.  My configuration is below.   When adding a link to the message, should I use anchor tags?  Both seem to work.  What is the implication to recipients who are not using HTML email?   On a side note, if anything below seems wrong, please let me know.   Thanks

$msg='<p>Hello</p><p>Link: http://phpmailer.worxware.com/</p><p>Link: http://phpmailer.worxware.com</p><a href="http://phpmailer.worxware.com">http://phpmailer.worxware.com</a>';

$mail = new myPHPMailer(true);
$mail->AddReplyTo('myEmail@xxx.com', 'Michael Reed');
$mail->SetFrom('myEmail@xxx.com', 'Michael Reed');
$mail->AddAddress('johndoe@xxx.com', 'John Doe');
$mail->Subject = "Here is your email";
//AltBody property need not be sent since PHPMailer will create an alternate automatically
$mail->MsgHTML($message);
return ($mail->Send());

class myPHPMailer extends PHPMailer {
    public function __construct($allow_exceptions=false){
        $this->isSMTP();
        $this->SMTPDebug = 0;
        $this->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
        $this->Port = 587;
        $this->SMTPSecure='tls';  // sets the prefix to the server.  Used for gmail only.
        $this->SMTPAuth = true;
        $this->Username = 'xxx';
        $this->Password = 'xxx';

Hi All,
I'm sending an email with a link to a web page with a form on.

Code: [Select]
<tr style="padding:10px;">
  <td align="center">
    <a style="text-decoration:none;" href="http://www.foo.co.uk/bar.php?id=123">
      <img src="/header.jpg" border="0" style="display: block;" width="380" height="64" alt="Logo" />
    </a>
  </td>
</tr>

I currently GET the id from the URL and add it to a hidden field in the form which then sends the ID to the database on submit so I know from which email the user came from to fill out the form.
This doesn't always work as I guess some people move from the form page to look at other pages on my site then come back to fill in the form.
I think I need to use SESSION to keep the id 'active' but cannot figure out how to GET the id from the URL and put it into a SESSION, alas I am struggling to even start and finish a basic SESSION.

Thanks in advance,
Ben.

Hi all,

I am looking to integrate Paypal Express checkout on my site and have been working with the API today.

I have got the code working in a static state with predefined payment amounts but I am having trouble making this dynamic.

When you first submit a request to set up an express checkout you send the payment amount along with it. The paypal server then makes the checkout and the user is redirected to the paypal site to login and authenticate. From here they click to be redirected back to my site where I have a pay button which when clicked submits the final request to confirm the payment.

I am sure there must be a simple solution to this because so many people use paypal already but when you submit the final confirmation request, you have to send the payment amount again, but because the page redirects onto the paypal page inbetween, I can't use a session variable to store the amount. How have other people overcome this?

Thanks
