Wondering if anyone can help me with the following: I am using MySQL database with PHP on an Apache web server. I have a database created and a certain table with certain fields populated via a form on a web page. Once the form is completed, there is a SUBMIT button at the end, which will basically INSERT the information in the table of the MySQL database. Pretty basic. What I am trying to do is to have that same SUBMIT button, somehow send an email to me with certain fields from the table in the body of the email. Something like ... ------------------------------------------- You have new data updated to your database. Information entered by <NAME FROM ENTERED FIELD> Request is <DESCRIPTION FROM ENTERED FIELD> ------------------------------ Is it possible to do this with that one SUBMIT button? If so, any suggestions how? Would appreciate any ideas. Thank you. tgb |

| Included values from the database inside the $message body ... made sure all the variables and mail function are run inside the PHP tag. |
