    Default Editing the "Thanks" message after submit.

    I've found a piece of code that I've heavily edited to work on my site and I'm almost there!

    Is there anything I can add in the php to have a "Thanks for submitting . . ." message?

    Here's the code . . . (I've used the free code from pixelatedbylev.com and edited it heavily to work for me.)

    Code:
    <?php


$thisprog = "pbltellafriend.php";
$template = "template.html"; // must be valid!
$people = "5"; // number of people user can recommend page to at a time
$fontface = "Arial"; // font style
$fontsize = "11"; // size in points! (pt); NOT html sizes, a decent size is between 8-14
$fontcolor = "#000";
$maxlength = "50"; // maximum length of string displayed url will be before adding "..." before it
$messagefile = "tellafriend_message.txt"; 
$mes_footer_file = "tellafriend_mes_footer.txt"; // does not need to be modified if file exists in same directory
$subject = "TEST MESSAGE"; // change this to your default subject
$changesub = "n"; // allow users to change the "subject" of the email
$requirerefer = "n"; // y or n
$validservers = "pixelatedbylev.com,www.pixelatedbylev.com,taintedthoughts.com,www.taintedthoughts.com";
$uselog = "n"; // want to enable log recording so that you may view a log of recommendations? ***REQUIRES mySQL!***

// IF YOU WANTED TO ENABLE LOG RECORDING THEM THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS ALSO MUST BE SET

$truepassword = "pbl"; // password you will use in url query string to access log data

// MYSQL REQUIRED PARAMETERS
$GLOBALS['sqlhost'] = 'localhost';
$GLOBALS['sqluser'] = 'username';
$GLOBALS['sqlpass'] = 'password';
$GLOBALS['sqldbnm'] = 'database_name';


$validemail = "/^\w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*$/";
$program = 'Tell A Friend v 1.11'; // do not change
$programnoversion = preg_replace("/^(.*?) v (.*?)$/","\\1",$program);
$data .= "<FONT STYLE=\"FONT-FAMILY:$fontface;FONT-SIZE:$fontsize" . "pt;COLOR:$fontcolor;\">\n";

    Make an if else associated with a function with checks for failures. Here is an example with a mail() function which worked well on my site.

    Code:
    $ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers); 

if($ok) { 
echo "Your sample has been submitted to your practitioner.
Click <a href=\"#\" onclick=\"history.back();\">here</a> to return.";

} else { 
fail("Sorry but the email could not be sent. Please try again."); 
}
    It wont work with all functions, but it might work for you. Hope this helps.

    It looks like I may have it working. I took out a lot of the superfluous code I didn't need.

    Here's the new code . . .

    Code:
    <?php


$thisprog = "pbltellafriend2.php";

$people = "5"; // number of people user can recommend page to at a time

$fontsize = "11"; // size in points! (pt); NOT html sizes, a decent size is between 8-14
$fontcolor = "#000";
$maxlength = "50"; // maximum length of string displayed url will be before adding "..." before it
$messagefile = "tellafriend_message.txt"; // does not need to be modified if file exists in same directory
$mes_footer_file = "tellafriend_mes_footer.txt"; // does not need to be modified if file exists in same directory
$subject = "TEST MESSAGE"; // change this to your default subject
