The "formatting" of the mail is up to you, just create a string that has your formatting in it and send it. ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.

Re: [PHP-DB] guestbook to db to email
I know this allready, I explained this in the original message.
"I know how to manage sending simple form elements to an email
(email,subject,body) and so on"
How do I FORMAT the body of an email when there are multiple variable inputs
for the body??
Formatting as in Line Breaks etc etc.
Cheers

Form elements are just variables. Insert them into a string and make
that your message...
$message = "This is a message from {$_POST['name']}. They said this:
{$_POST['message']}";
etc...
