Adding header to php email form script

[cyberdyne]

I need to ad a 'received from' header to my email script but am having trouble with the code.

Currently have:

$headers = 'Received: from {$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']} by www.domain.com'\n;
 with HTTP; " . strftime("%A %d %B'%y at: %r").\r\n";

I know there are a few errors in there but I can't seem to get enough coffee down me to work them out.

Any help greatly appreciated
Thank you

You are single quoted here

'Received: from {$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']} by www.domain.com'

then the string ends and you have a bare newline

\n;

follwed by another bare string


with HTTP;

then a double quoted concatenated string

" . strftime("%A %d %B'%y at: %r").\r\n";

Single quotes do not interpolate variables, double quotes do. This includes newlines, tabs, etc. Also regular newlines are interpolated, which means you (usually) don't need \r\n. You need to step in and out of concatenation when you call functions and some array variables (unless wrapped in {}, and only when double-quoted.) Try

$headers = "Received: from {$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']} by www.domain.com
with HTTP; " . strftime("%A %d %B'%y at: %r") . "
";

or

$headers = "Received: from {$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']} by www.domain.com\r\n";
$headers .= "with HTTP; " . strftime("%A %d %B'%y at: %r")."\r\n";
