[seth meyerowitz]

i need to have the person's email address show as the "from" when i receive the emails.  i want to have an autoresponder set up but cant do that until i get it done.

please advise.

<?php

$where_form_is="http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].strrev(strstr(strrev($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']),"/"));

session_start();
if( ($_SESSION['security_code']==$_POST['security_code']) && (!empty($_POST['security_code'])) ) {
mail("firstsendtoemail@email.com, secondsendtoemail@email.com","Contact Us Form ","Form data:

Name: " . $_POST['field_1'] . "
Phone (123)-456-7890: " . $_POST['field_3'] . "
Reason For Contact: " . $_POST['field_7'] . "
Email Address: " . $_POST['field_8'] . "
", "From: theaddresstoshowinthefrom@email.com\r\n");

include("confirm.html");
}
else {
echo "Invalid Security Code.  Please go back and try again.";

I believe

mail("firstsendtoemail@email.com, secondsendtoemail@email.com",$_POST[field_8],"Contact Us Form ","Form data:

Try that and see if it works, I'm not a php developer, but it worked for one of my forms, but it didn't on another one.

thats putting the users email as the subject...

[seth meyerowitz]

is there any order ?? if so, where does the users email address go?

mail("sendto","subject","form data")

the way that i have it, (which sends from an email that i set up "form@mydomain.com") it is after the form data

mail("sendto","subject","form data","from: form@...com")
