Thank you.

Here is a working script, see if this script helps you:

Quote:

<?php
session_start();

if( isset($_POST['submit']))
{
if( $_SESSION['security_code'] == $_POST['security_code'] && !empty($_SESSION['security_code'] ) )
{
$to = 'abc@abc.com';
$subject = 'Mail From -'.$_POST["name"];
$message=$_POST["message"];
$message=wordwrap($message,50);
//$headers=$_POST["email"];

$headers = 'From: '.$_POST["email"];

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

header("Location: ".$_POST['action_url'].'?id=1');

exit;
unset($_SESSION['security_code']);
}
else
{

header("Location: ".$_POST['action_url'].'?id=0');

exit;
}
}

There are lots out on Google, but coming here and asking someone else to write your code for you is fairly lazy.

Put some effort into learning and doing for yourself, don't just go and ask for handouts.
