PHP Form mail
Does anyone here know where to get a good PHP Formmail script. I’ve heard so many horror stories using CGI Formmail. I don’t know a lick of PHP, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dave

<?php
### simple form handler to send email ###
# set email address in following variables
# address will be concatenated as "$name@$location"
$name = "yourname";

# parse the _POST or _GET array, depending which form method was used:
if(count($_POST) >= 1)
{
foreach($_POST as $key=>$value)
{
$msg .= "$key: $valuen";
}
}
elseif(count($_GET) >= 1)
{
foreach($_GET as $key=>$value)
{
$msg .= "$key: $valuen";
}

if($msg == "")

$result = "ERROR: No form data received.";

$rc = mail($address, $subject, $msg,
"From: $addressrnReply-To: $address");
$result = $rc ? "SUCCESS: Form has been emailed." :
"ERROR: Email of form data failed.";
}
# display the results:
