PHP - Php Mail Function Stopped Working

I'm rewriting my aplication to work with mysqli and one function that I have created is not working anymore. I don't know why connection to db is not working anymore. It worked on mysql.   Can you see what is the problem?

function zamjena_broja($kataloski_broj){
    
    global $conn_mysqli;
    
    $kataloski_broj_data = array();

    //Traženje zamjenskog broja
    $upit_zamjena = "SELECT pocetni_broj, zamjenski_broj, glavni_broj
                     FROM zamjene_brojeva
                     WHERE glavni_broj = '$kataloski_broj'
                     OR pocetni_broj = '$kataloski_broj'";
    $rezultat_zamjena = mysqli_query($conn_mysqli, $upit_zamjena) or die (mysqli_error($conn_mysqli));
    while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($rezultat_zamjena)){
        $kataloski_broj_data[] = $row["zamjenski_broj"];
        $kataloski_broj_data[] = $row["pocetni_broj"];

    }
      
    $kataloski_broj = array_map("unserialize", array_unique(array_map("serialize", $kataloski_broj_data)));
    //var_dump($kataloski_broj);
          
    return $kataloski_broj;

}

My connection:

<?php
//Veza na bazu - mysqli protokol
$DBServer = 'localhost'; // e.g 'localhost' or '192.168.1.100'
$DBUser   = 'xxxx';
$DBPass   = 'xxxx';
$DBName   = 'xxxdb';

$conn_mysqli = new mysqli($DBServer, $DBUser, $DBPass, $DBName);
global $conn_mysqli;
 
// check connection
if ($conn_mysqli->connect_error) {
  trigger_error('Database connection failed: '  . $conn->connect_error, E_USER_ERROR);
}
?>

Whenever try to use the PHP mail function on my local server it also fails but then when I upload my scripts to my webspace they work fine.  I think there must be something wrong with my php.ini file.  Below I have copied the mail function section of my php.ini file. 

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from = me@example.com

; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
sendmail_path = sendmail -t -i

; Force the addition of the specified parameters to be passed as extra parameters
; to the sendmail binary. These parameters will always replace the value of
; the 5th parameter to mail(), even in safe mode.
;mail.force_extra_parameters =


Thanks for any help. 

Hello,

The mail function works on my one website but it won't on my other site. On the site that it won't work on, I'm trying to email the contents of the cart. I tested it out and it diplays the contents of the cart properly  if I  echo $email. I don't get any errors on the site, it seems to process but I don't receive any emails. here is my code for process.php:

Hi people, please can some one help me out with a bit of php for the 'mail function'?

All i want to do is have the end user fill out the form, hit submit then either have the user directed to a thank you page or have pop up
message stating that the information has been sent.

At the moment the code i have does not seem to be sending the mail and aditionally i have no idea where or how to start writing the code for the thank you page or the
conformation pop up message.

Please can some one show me the light on this one, i am really just starting out with php and finding it real hard.

Anyway guys this is the code i have, please let us know what i'm doing wrong and what i need to add to it.

Code: [Select]
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$to = "my_email@mydomain";
$subject = "Contact Form";

$name =  $_POST['name'];
$comp_name =  $_POST['company_name'];
$email =  $_POST['email'];
$phone =  $_POST['contact_number'];
$location =  $_POST['location'];
$message =  $_POST['message'];
 
$body =  "From: $name\n E-Mail: $email\n Company Name: $comp_name\n Contact Number: $phone:\n Location: $location:\n Message:\n $message";
 
mail($to, $subject, $body); }


?> 

Hope some one can help, many thanks in advance.
