mail() function

[[praetorian]]

Hello!
I'm quite a newbie with PHP and want help with the mail()-function.

I've got a page where you can tip others about this page and that's why I've an hidden variable on the page called $page with the address to this page. My problem is that I can't get this variable into the mail I'm sending. it only prints out $page in the mail and not the URL. Anyone got any ideas?

thx!

post your exact code so I can see what exactly you are testing. Its hard to just imagine what you wrote.

i'd imagine it's a quoting problem since you say it prints $page instead of the contents of $page, try one of these

$stufftomail = 'hello, this is a url ' . $page . ' I know you like it';
$stufftomail = "hello, this is a url $page I know you like it";
