1. If you are running all of this script in your local enviroment you'll need to set a SMTP client at your PC. Otherwise you can try to connect to a server that will perform that. http://www.php-scripts.com/php_diary/122899.php3 http://email.about.com/cs/phpemailtips/qt/et031202.htm
2. Hello, in mail() error u have to set smtp server mail and valid email id. For this error "Cannot modify header information - headers already" you have to write ob_start(); in first of the php page and end ob_end_flush(); because in header we should write any content. when we use ob_start(); its void error's ok. if you want to run php code in html use ajax or xajax it's very faster and better using in html.
