    Re: php email

    Simplistic suggestions first: have you tried looking for the email in your Junk folder? Have you tried sending to a different email?

    One problem I've had with PHP mail() is that the SMTP server I was using required authentication, which is not inherently supported by mail(). So, I used the PHPMailer class to get it working. Don't know if that's your problem though - check with your host.

    Re: php email

    this edited code worked for me..?
    PHP Code:
    $to="[email protected]";
    $subject="";
    $message="hi";
    $headers="Shanti Nai";

    $sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers) ;
    if(    $sent)
    {print     "Sent successfully"; }
    else
    {print     "We encountered an error sending"; } 
    I found this site good...
    http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/func_mail_mail.asp
    It even gives you (limited) info on how to lay out you email /n

    If anyone knows how to do a 'send page to friend' script i could do with some help.
    I have a php generated page and I'm looking to email it to other people.

    thanks
