    "send to a friend" script

    Ok,

    Im trying to create a "send this article to a friend" script for my
    blog,

    Right now its sending all the articles,

    but I want it to only send the article in which the form is attached
    to.

    here is my code:

    <?php
    $to_email = $_POST['maily'];
    $art = $GLOBALS['thisarticle']['thisid'];
    $submitted = $_POST['submitted'][$art];
    $suby = $_POST['submitted'];
    $from_email = $_POST['from'];
    $subject = 'yeah';
    $headers = "From:{$from_em ail}" ;
    $message = 'You have been sent a story from The Trumpet
    Group'."\n".' http://www.trumpetgrou p.com/index.php?id='. $GLOBALS['thisarticle']['thisid'].'.com';


    echo $submitted;

    if($submitted)
    {
    mail($to_email, $subject, $message, $headers );
    echo "This story has been sent";
    }

    ?>

    here is my form:

    <form method="post" action="<?php $_SERVER['PHP SELF'];?>">
    From: <input class="putty" type="text" name="from">
    To: <input class="putty" type="text" name="maily">
    <input class="send" type="submit" name="submitted <txp:article_ id />">
    </form>

    Any help would be appreciated

    thanks in advanced,
    shybe

      How is your $GLOBALS array getting set? What to you get if your
      print_r($GLOBAL S); ?

      Do you actually want a '.com' extension on the article? (Maybe so, but
      it's quite unusual).

      P.S. It's generally poor form to use globals any more than necessary.

          Thanks for responding,

          the Globals variable is actually a variable provided by Textpattern,
          which is what I'm using for my CMS.
          I usually use it to grab the current articles ID, and it works in that
          regard, but the problem is my script is grabbing all the article IDs
          from the homepage.

          As for the .COM its just a typo on my part.

          Thanks again for your time.

              Ok, so what's in $GLOBALS['thisarticle']['thisid'] (try
              print_r($GLOBAL S); to be sure).

              And what exactly do you get in your email?
