Automatic send email HELP

I wanna code to send an e-mail automatically when the page loaded,
and it must work per session, for example if somebody visited that page, it must send the email only 1 time, and if the visitor refreshed that page it will not send the email again.

Can somebody help?

 

Hi, I made this code for you, should be something like this, hope that helps.

<?php
session_start(); 

if (!($_SESSION['mail']))
{
      $_SESSION['mail'] = true;
      mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters) 
}

?>

Code (markup):

When user first comes to your page there will be no session variable created... that means you can send mail and create a session variable. If user refresh the session variable will already be created and then no e-mail will be sent.

 

Well thanks but Its showing this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/xxx/public_html/mail.php on line 8

also where i should enter my email address to receive the email?

 

<?php
session_start(); 

if (!($_SESSION['mail']))
{
      $_SESSION['mail'] = true;
      mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters); //he forgot the ";"
}

?>

Code (markup):

And you asked where to enter your email, that's obvious. It is the 'to' parameter.

If we take a closer look at the function:

mail('sendto@email.com','Email Subject','message goes here','headers go here');

Code (markup):

Alternatively you could use variables to define the parameters of the mail() function to allow for dynamic email content (not the same message every time).

$to = 'sendto@email.com';
$subject = 'Email Subject';
$message = 'message goes here';
$headers = 'headers go here';
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

Code (markup):
