How can I send an email using input from form?

ERuiz · Dec 14, 2005

I have a question. I would like to have the information entered on this form sent via email once the user submits the information. The catch is that the email to be sent to, has to use a variable taken from the page itself. For example, the email would have to be something like this:

$domicile@flyapr.com

Since we have 2 different domiciles to where a user belongs to, the email would be tjsj@flyapr.com or kmia@flyapr.com

tjsj or kmia would be decided by $domicile@flyapr.com

Here is the code:

Code:

<?php
$ipaddr = getenv(REMOTE_ADDR);
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function CalculateHours()
{
var minutes1 = 0;
var minutes2 = 0;
var minutesdelta = 0;
var hours = 0;
var hours2 = '';

minutes1 = document.adminForm.PB_HH.value*60 + document.adminForm.PB_MM.value*1;
minutes2 = document.adminForm.SD_HH.value*60 + document.adminForm.SD_MM.value*1;

if (minutes1 < minutes2) {minutesdelta = minutes2-minutes1}
else {minutesdelta = (minutes2+24*60)-minutes1};

if (document.adminForm.vatsim_flight.value == 'YES') {minutesdelta=minutesdelta*1.5};

hours = (minutesdelta/60)+0.05;
hours2 = ''+hours;

if (hours2.indexOf('.') != -1)
{
        hours2=hours2.substring(0,hours2.indexOf('.')+2);
}

//alert ('Test ' + minutesdelta + ' ' + hours2);
document.adminForm.total_block_time.value=hours2;
}


function callJavaScript(functionName)
{
  return eval(functionName)
}
//-->

You can't send emails client side w/o using a client side email program (like outlook). If you want to automate the process of sending an email when a form is submitted you really need to use a server side language to do this. Since you've posted some PHP code I'm guessing you use PHP. Try posting your question in that forum: forum434
