Message Body Empty

Guys Look at this code

require_once 'class.phpmailer.php';

$mail = new PHPMailer(true); //defaults to using php "mail()"; the true param means it will throw exceptions on errors, which we need to catch

$Body= "TestPay New Merchant Transaction Receipt\r\n\r\n\r\nINVOICE\r\n\r\nBelow is your transaction information  an invoice is also attached for your records:\r\n\r\nMerchant Name on Acct -$fName - $lName\r\nMerchant Name on Acct -$fName - $lName\r\nReciept Serial No. - $random_number\r\nDTG of transaction - $timestamp\r\nName of Business - $BName\r\nAddress - $Adrs\r\nCity - $Cty\r\nState - $Ste\r\nZipcode - $zpc\r\nAcct Debited  $mnysmbl 10.00 - **********$pacct\r\nInitial Product Set\r\n$proc1 - $procprc1	Shipping/Handling      $shandpr1\r\n$proc2 - $procprc2	Shipping/Handling      $shandpr2\r\n$proc3 - $procprc3	Shipping/Handling      $shandpr3\r\n$proc4 - $procprc4	Shipping/Handling      $shandpr4\r\n$proc5 - $procprc5	Shipping/Handling      $shandpr5\r\n";

try {
  $mail->AddReplyTo('support@TestPay.com', 'TestPay-support-group');
  $mail->AddAddress($eml, 'NewMerchant');
  $mail->SetFrom('support@TestPay.com', 'TestPay-support-group');
  $mail->AddReplyTo('support@TestPay.com', 'TestPay-support-group');
  $mail->Subject = 'TestPay New Merchant Transaction Receipt';
  //$mail->AltBody = 'To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!'; // optional - MsgHTML will create an alternate automatically
  $mail->MsgHTML(file_get_contents(''));
  //$mail->AddAttachment('invoice.doc');      // attachment
  //$mail->AddAttachment('Logo1Small.bmp'); // attachment
  $mail->Send();
  echo "Message Sent OK</p>\n";
} catch (phpmailerException $e) {
  echo $e->errorMessage(); //Pretty error messages from PHPMailer
} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $e->getMessage(); //Boring error messages from anything else!
}

PHP:

I keep getting "Message Body Empty" from PHPMailer - any ideas..??

 

can't you see that $mail->MsgHTML(file_get_contents('')); is empty?

 

Guys - Is it possible to send email with PHPMailer by making the text to be sent a variable. Meaning:

$Body="text to be sent"

Does it have to have a file to read.

I just made a file called "Contents.html" and modified the code to read:

$mail->MsgHTML(file_get_contents("Contents.html"));

and the error that came back reads - Could not instantiate mail function

 

using the library?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/

Code (markup):

or do you mean something else?

 

yes sir using the library
