I did change this to html email and the 'formatting' I have in place disappears but I DID get my text to bold!! So I am back to a long form showing all the field names in a 'formatted' email message (i.e: "------------ PROBLEM/REASON ------------\n\n" . "Reason for message: $printer\n" . "Reason for message: $microsoft\n" . "Reason for message: $reset\n" . "Reason for message: $equipment\n" . "Reason for message: $novell\n" . "Reason for message: $notes\n\n" . "------------ PRINTER PROBLEMS ------------\n\n" . etc... Thanks anyway for your help! As I said, I am very new to PHP so expect to encounter better ways of doing this as I discover the nuances of coding and using in PHP. jt

Here is a sample of my PHP: "------------ PRINTER PROBLEMS ------------\n\n" . "Printer ID: $printer_ID\n" . "Closest Column: $printer_column\n" . "Description: $printer_prob\n\n" . "------------ MS WORD or EXCEL PROBLEM ------------\n\n" . "Word or Excel Problem: $msProb\n\n" . "------------ LOTUS NOTES RESET ------------\n\n" . "Reset Notes Password: $reset_notes\n" . "Lotus Notes Problem Description: $reset_notes_other\n" . IF there is NO entry in the actual form field, there would be NO data to display. BUT... If, say, someone enters a 'yes' for Lotus Notes Reset and then enters something in the Lotus Notes Problem Description field, is there any way I can code the PHP so that the email message displays the data entered as either BOLD text or in a color (say red) so that the entries stand out more from the empty field identifiers? Hopefully I have better explained my question... jt

I have finally gotten a 'help desk' html form to work and love how PHP makes the results much prettier than CGI... My users have asked if there is a way to either 'bold' the results if the field has a value or eliminate those fields with no value. If this WERE a cgi form then the empty fields would not display so I am telling my users no... So - is there some way to either bold or change the color in the PHP form handler results? I've been canvassing the internet for the last two days as well as going through my various manuals and haven't seen anything available... I'm just in the learning stage with php so would appreciate any input!! jt
