I'm fairly new to php and I'm using a script that creates a function called the "mime_mailer" which essentially allows me to use PHP to send emails that are able to be designed with CSS instead of being merely plain text.
Yet, in my registration script, I try to write some code that sends a CSS email, but I get an error saying that there's a syntax error. Could someone please fill me in on this?
$subject = "Your Red-line Account"; $css = "body{ color: #090127; background-color: #f0f0f0; }"; $to = $usercheck; //Message $message =<<<END <html> <head> <title> Red-line </title> </head> <body> <p> Hi $first_name, </p> <p> Your Red-line account is almost complete. To finish, go to <a href='www.thered-line.com'>The Red-line</a> and enter your eight digit confirmation code. </p> <p> Your confirmation code is: <b>$code</b> </p> <p> Sincerely, </p> <br /> <p> The Red-line Operator </p> </body> </html> END; // To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; // Additional headers $headers .= "From: The Red-line <messages@theredline.com>\r\n"; $headers .= "To: $first_name $last_name <$usercheck>\r\n"; // Mail it require_once("function_mime_mailer.php"); mime_mailer($to, $subject, $message, $headers, NULL, $css); } Here is the code for the "function_mime_mailer.php" file.
