You could try using the variable $_SERVER[’HTTP_REFERER’]. This should contain the URL of the referring page.

I’m guessing you want to create a link from a content page to a script that handles the e-mailing. If so, you could also add a $_GET variable to the URL and send that to the script.

Cool! I love this form and it works great. However — is there a way to send the url of the previous page rather than the page the form is on? Something to replace this line:

$pageURL = ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[’SERVER_NAME’] . $_SERVER[’REQUEST_URI’];

I’m teaching myself PHP so I haven’t yet found a solution on my own. Thanks!
