find it under comments

also for "Klemen Stirn" i have displayed the emails backward, i'm told this will also prevent SPAM ?

.email{ UNICODE-BIDI:bidi-override; direction: rtl;}

Cheers Fruit :roll:

Hi there,

WOW, you did a great job customizing Gbook! :o I wouldn't even know this was GBook unless there was the "powered by" link (feel free to also add your own link there, something like "customized by Fruit" or something). Really a great job!

About the e-mail being displayed backwards - I don't think that helps prevent SPAM. They get e-mails from the source code, yours has e-mail nicely available there:

Code: Select all

<a href="mailto:office@fgps.com" class="email" title="mailto:office@fgps.com">office@fgps.com</a>
E-mail is turned around just in browser output, not in the code. Spambots could still easily get it.

Again really a great job and thanks for sharing!

BTW: there is a forum for posting Gbook mods. It's empty right now, but if you ever decide to share your design feel free to post it there :wink:

Hey Fruit,

I know you left that, what I ment was I wouldn't have figured this used to be Gbook if it wasn't for the "Powered by" link :D

Also feel free to add YOUR powered by statement next to the PHPJunkyard one as this is a major change.

Gbook Email responsees....

Post by shawoody »

Whoa! Friut...you really made some great changes to your personalized Gbook. I have a question about configuring the PHP so that people who leave entries can receive a response email....in the same manner that the admin receives one, yet only with some changes to the message. Seems like it must be possible. I'm familiar (no expert!) with PHP and understand the concepts fairly well. Any advice?

"From" Field in Gbook Response Emails...?

Post by shawoody »

Thank you, Fruit! That was exremely helpful. I have one more question, which is: How could I change what is seen in the "from" field when someone receives a response email? Right now it has username@myserver, etc. How would I replace that with say "Guestbook Admin", or some thing along those lines?

I really appreciate this help. I have been looking for answers to these questions for very long. It is throroughly appreciated!!!

'From' field...auto-response emails...?

Post by shawoody »

Thank you, Fruit. It had an effect, but it didn't work completely. It still had the server name and other characters in the "from" field. Wouldn't the indicator be somewhere in this line of code?:

mail("$email","Woody Shaw Guestbook :: Response", $message2);


Anyway, I think wer'e almost there. Thank you for your time.

Try this:

$headers='From: you@yourmail.com\n';
$headers.='Reply-to: you@yourmail.com\n';

mail($email,"Woody Shaw Guestbook :: Response", $message2,$headers);
