send-email.php

As a way of getting started I created a simple PHP script which just sends an email to myself. Here it is:

<?php // A test script to send an email message to myself. // author = Martin Bush, South Bank University // date = 6th August 2002 // filename = send-email.php3 // version = 1.1 // history = - $content_owner = "bushm@sbu.ac.uk"; $mail_message = "If I get this it worked!\n\nNow what?!"; mail($content_owner, "Expiry Checker: testing", $mail_message); ?>

 
This script, like all PHP scripts, needs to put into the cgi-bin directory. It is invoked by pointing a browser at this URL:
