Dear All

I am trying configure a function that will send a mail to my users informing them of their password. I would like it to include some information in the message like, name, title etc. My problem begins!!
The Error I am getting with my code is;

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /home/sites/site112/web/fp.php on line 20

The code is;

<?php
//connection functions etc.
require_once ('incl_funs.php');
do_header('Password Sent','Password<br/>Sent');
$username=$HTTP_POST_VARS['username'];
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
$subject=$HTTP_POST_VARS['subject'];
$fromaddress='p.robertson@boltd.co.uk';
do_db_connect();

$query = 'SELECT * from users, userdata WHERE (users.username= '.$username.') AND (users.username= userdata.username)';
$result = mysql_query($query);
$num_results=mysql_num_rows($result);
$row;
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

if ($email==$row['email']) {


//This line is showing the error
$mailcontent="Dear $row['salutation'] $row['fname']\r\n\r\n
Your password is $row['passwd']. May I recommend that change your password to something memorable by visiting www.boltd.co.uk
Best Regards \r\n
\r\n

mail ($email,$subject,$mailcontent,$fromaddress);

}

Any suggestions from you gurus out there?
Cheers
Phil

p.s. I am not sure if this is the correct way to include code please let me know if there is a more approved of method for future ref.

Just a quick observation here; perhaps it's related to your problem, perhaps not -

Inside double quotes:

Also quote the string(?) in the sql query?

re:quoting PHP code
Please view the FAQ to highlight PHP code (see the sample at the bottom of the page) in your posts.

That was the exact problem I was having and your suggestion fixed it immediately. I get a bit confused about ' and ". I thought I had tried every combination of quotes and no quotes. Clearly I was mistaken!! I shall use the vB tags next time.

Once again

Thank you
Phil
