Basic mail ( ) function questions
Posted: Fri Apr 10, 2009 5:12 pm
Hey everyone. I am brand new to PHP. I have this PHP mail script which I can't get to run properly. The only thing I get is the subject and message. What I would like is for the variables "superpowers" and "find" to be included in the message being retrieved. I tried to incorporate these through $headers variables, but they also do not show up in the message from the HTML form. Any help would be greatly appreciated:
Code: Select all
<?php
$to = 'recipient@email.com' ;
$email = $_POST['email'] ;
$superpower = $_POST['superpower'] ;
$find = $_POST['find'] ;
$subject = $_POST['subject'] ;
$message = $_POST['message'] ;
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From:".$email."\r\n";
$headers .= "Superpower:".$superpower."\r\n";
$headers .= "Find:".$find."\r\n";
// HTML form validation
function is_valid_email($email) {
return preg_match('#^[a-z0-9.!\#$%&\'*+-/=?^_`{|}~]+@([0-9.]+|([^\s]+\.+[a-z]{2,6}))$#si', $email);
}
function contains_bad_str($str_to_test) {
$bad_strings = array(
"content-type:"
,"mime-version:"
,"multipart/mixed"
,"Content-Transfer-Encoding:"
,"bcc:"
,"cc:"
,"to:"
);
foreach($bad_strings as $bad_string) {
if(eregi($bad_string, strtolower($str_to_test))) {
echo "$bad_string found. Suspected injection attempt - mail not being sent.";
exit;
}
}
}
function contains_newlines($str_to_test) {
if(preg_match("/(%0A|%0D|\\n+|\\r+)/i", $str_to_test) != 0) {
echo "newline found in $str_to_test. Suspected injection attempt - mail not being sent.";
exit;
}
}
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != "POST"){
echo("Unauthorized attempt to access page.");
exit;
}
if (!is_valid_email($email)) {
echo 'Sorry, invalid email';
exit;
}
contains_bad_str($email);
contains_bad_str($subject);
contains_bad_str(body);
contains_newlines($email);
contains_newlines($subject);
// End HTML form validation
mail( $to, $subject, $message , $headers);
header( "Location: http://www.website.com/mailconfirm.html" );
?>
