I am trying to do a form (mostly for prctice) that will e-mail a freind the link to a site. HTML and PHP I have is listed below.

I am a bit lost as to what I am doing wrong.

HTML

Code:

 <html>
<head>
<title>Form</title>
</head>


<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<FORM ACTION="test.php" METHOD="POST">
Your Freinds name

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="name" SIZE="20" MAXLENGTH="30">



Your Name

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="freind" SIZE="20" MAXLENGTH="30">



Their e-mail address


Your message about this site

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="message" SIZE="50" MAXLENGTH="90">




<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Send it!">

</FORM>

</body>


</html>

test.php

Code:

 <?php
mail ("$email", "$name... $freind wants you to check this site", "$message !n http://rrfn.promodtecnologies.com !");
?>

Its a lot easier to use than smtp hehe... basically you tell it what you want and you do it, i mean you reged your nick and got an email from Gizmo[at]undergroundnews[dot]com do you really think that i sent every one? _________________________ Donate to UGN Security here.

It doesn't give it's IP, but the recieving SMTP server may record it anyway. I didn't realize that not all servers did this. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

But now you can heh, tell it what e-mail address you are sending from and who to e-mail, type in a message.... Bada bing it's out there. Pretty cool actualy. I knew how to spoof e-mails in telenet... Now I have a progy that makes it easier..... Nah, actualy I have mine set up as a send your buddy a link to this site script. If anyone abuses it I can easily track them down. Plus you can find out what server a e-mail came from just buy looking at the full header of an e-mail. _________________________ http://promodtecnologies.com/rrfn
