No database involved here. None. Nadda. Niet!
$message = '<a href="'.www.zoneofsuccessclub.com.'">link </a>';
(my nemesis, I can not figure out this puppy. If it works at all, php will
generate it at text and not html. Taken from example I find on the web.)
That's because it's not valid PHP. This is probably what you're after...
$message = '<a href="http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com";>link</a>';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type:
text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
(found on the web to solve my html problem???)
That looks reasonable.
mail( $email, "Your FREE book from Zone of Success Club .com", $headers,
$message, "From: $email" ); ?>
(Send the mail, when I put $headers in, the function quits working all
together.)
That's because it's in the wrong place. Did you even look at the manual
like I suggested in my previous message?
I hope this helps explain where my head is!
My advice to you is to get a beginners book on basic PHP. If you can't
see what's wrong with the above then you are lacking some foundation
knowledge of PHP.

Just another can of worms.
The $_REQUEST is tied into a whole bunch of database functions.
I have no idea what you mean by this. It makes no sense to me.
My present code....
<?
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$message = '<a href="'.www.zoneofsuccessclub.com.'">link </a>';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
mail( $email, "Your FREE book from Zone of Success Club .com",
$headers, $message, "From: $email" );
?>
You *really* need to read the manual page for function before you use
them. For example a quick glance at http://php.net/function.mail reveals
that you have the parameters in an almost completely wrong order.
And please tell me you're not really setting the to address directly
from an external variable with verifying that it's just an email address
and nothing else. Really bad idea.
