and my mailer.php contains :

PHP Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>

<?php
require "config.php" ;
?>
</title>
</head>
<body>


<?php
$send = mail($receiver,$subject,$message,$mship,"From: $email\r\n" .
"Reply-To: $email\r\n" .
"X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());
if ($send=1 )
print "Your email has been send!" ;
else
print "Something went wrong, \"Houston, we've got a problem\" "
?>

</body>
</html>

Now i understand there is probably an easyer way of doing this.

If so ... how

Also i'd like it so only logged in forum users can use it.


Please help it would be much appricated.

editing the report.php may help you better instead of coding it from the begining..
