mail() headers error

[dflow]

the following isnt sending mail()

$to=$_POST['CustomerEmail'];	
$from = "s@xaa.com";
$Cc = "s@xaa.com";
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers = "Cc:" . $Cc;
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' . "\r\n";

i believe it's the dot before the equal sign

Your $headers variable is overwritten twice before it even gets to that point. Have you echoed anything out for debugging?

You aren't calling mail()

 

My point is that you're giving us incomplete code. It's great that you think it's the headers at fault, but how about showing everything just in case it isn't?

$headers = "From:" . $from;  //$headers is now "From: somebody@somedomain.com"
$headers = "Cc:" . $Cc;        //$headers is now "Cc: somebodyElse@someOtherDomain.com"
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";  //$headers is now "MIME-Version: 1.0"

 

You're over-writing headers every time.  The concatenation operator (.=) allows you to APPEND headers (though note that \r\n needs to be at the end of every line of the headers).
