Since it is not in the assignment, find out how to do things within the parameters of your assignment. http://www.google.com php: {issue} Googling "PHP: mail bcc" (sans quotes) has 5 viable workings on how to do it. If it fails, then you need to be examing the php.ini file for information or talking with the server admins as to what piece is wrong. Also, if you are error checking your own stuff, then the error log should be able to tell you what has failed out. I'm glad your professor is teaching you how to learn, but shouldn't this be something you should be able to do already? And wasn't this whole thing started with you looking for something that you were "already too much money into" to change for the next roll-out? So now you are fessing up to trying to get the PHP board to do your assignments for you? I sure hope your instructor is on this board too...
