Is this a problem with the script, or is it something I must change in
php ini file?
Thanks in advance for any help.
here is the code. (im using it in conjunction with javascript for some
AJAX stuff)
if(!isset($_GET['action']))
{
die("You must not access this page directly!"); //Just to stop people
from visiting contact.php normally
}
/* Now lets trim up the input before sending it */
$name = trim($_GET['name']); //The senders name
$to = trim($_GET['maily']); //The senders email address
$place = trim($_GET['place']); //The senders email address
$subject = "you have recieved mail";
$headers = "From:$name";
$message = "{$name} deemed you worthy of receiving the following
information/exchange from Trumpet.\n\n Follow This Link {$place}";
mail($to, $subject, $message,$headers); //a very simple send
echo 'contactarea|<p class="sent">Article Sent!</p>'; //now lets
Thanks so much for the response. I tried your suggestion, and Its
still isnt working.
I also tried to remove the header variable,and still no luck.
As for the insecure code. I plan on securing. I'm just trying to get
the overall functionality to work.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

update the "contactarea" div on the contact.html page. The
contactarea| tell's the javascript which div to update.
?>
It's not a problem with the mail() function if some e-mail clients are
getting it. Maybe something to do with your e-mail formatting:
$headers = "From: $name"; should probably be
$headers = "From: \"$name\" <$email>";
Also the code snippet as you posted would be very vulnerable to script
attacks, I suggest more secure code.
