Adding a variable to existing mail script help

[Insane-Rocket]

Hi all,
I have this piece of code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_NOTICE);

function valid_email($str)
{
return ( ! preg_match("/^([a-z0-9+_-]+)(.[a-z0-9+_-]+)*@([a-z0-9-]+.)+[a-z]{2,6}$/ix", $str)) ? FALSE : TRUE;
}

if($_POST!=” && $_POST!=” && valid_email($_POST)==TRUE && strlen($_POST)>1)
{
$to = "[email protected]";
$headers = ‘From: ‘.$_POST.”. "rn" .
‘Reply-To: ‘.$_POST.” . "rn" .
‘X-Mailer: PHP/’ . phpversion();
$subject = "Contact Form";
$message = htmlspecialchars($_POST);

if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
{
echo 1; //SUCCESS
}
else {
echo 2; //FAILURE – server failure
}
}
else {
echo 3; //FAILURE – not valid email
}
?>

As you can see it takes the information entered from the form and stores it before sending to my email address. But I have a form input called name, how would I add that variable, $_POST into $message either the persons name then the comment or vice versa?
Thanks

You could modify the message variable like this:

$message = htmlspecialchars($_POST) . "rnName: " . htmlspecialchars($_POST);

The "." adds on to the string, and the "rnName: " section adds a new line and then the text "Name:" before the person’s name, just so your email is easy to understand.

Make sense?

Thanks for the quick reply I will try that out later :-)
