You reference $to in the mail() function, but there is no $to defined. Instead, either change $email to $to or vice-versa. 2.) You don't need to start the first line of a variable off with a .= --- this will append to an existing variable of the same name, if it exists. 3.) You change your quoting style where it's not necessary. All $msg lines should be using double quotes in your code above. 4.) <ahref="..." is not a tag. The correct usage is <a href="..." 5.) You have things in the message body that should be in the headers. 6.) You don't need to do a carriage return and newline in the message body. A simple \n will suffice. 7.) I'm not sure what you hoped to achieve with the "'.www.domain.com.'" conglomerate, but.... don't. That makes PHP think that the domain is some sort of internally-defined variable of horrible construct. 8.) You should use http:// prior to the FQDN. Taking hints from what appears to be your code, this is how it should be: <? $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; $eol="\r\n"; $headers = "From: ".$fromname."<".$fromaddress.">".$eol; $headers .= "Reply-To: ".$fromname."<".$fromaddress.">".$eol; $headers .= "Return-Path: ".$fromname."<".$fromaddress.">".$eol; $headers .= "Message-ID: <".time()."-".$fromaddress.">".$eol; $headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP ".phpversion().$eol; $headers .= "--".$htmlalt_mime_boundary.$eol; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1".$eol; $headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit".$eol.$eol; $body = "<a href=\"http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com\";>link </a>\n"; mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers); ?> Prior to asking a bunch of questions on the list, which seriously puts you at risk for being flamed or ignored, check out these references: http://www.bath.ac.uk/bucs/email/anatomy.shtml [Anatomy of an Email Message] http://www.php.net/mail [PHP Mail Functions] http://www.htmlgoodies.com/primers/html/ [Beginner's Guide to HTML] -- Daniel P.
