The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome.

Gmail servers use SMTP Authentication under SSL. I think that there is no way to use the mail() function under that circumstances, so you might want to check these alternatives:
ReplyDeletePEAR: Mail
phpMailer
They both support SMTP auth under SSL.
You'll need to activate the php_openssl extension on your php.ini.

If you open the php.ini file in wamp, you will find these two lines:
ReplyDeletesmtp_server
smtp_port
Add the server and port number for your host (you may need to contact them for details)
The following two lines don't exist:
auth_username
auth_password
So you will need to add them to be able to send mail from a server that requires authentication. So an example may be:
smtp_server = mail.example.com
smtp_port = 26
auth_username = example_username@example.com
auth_password = example_password
i know in XAMPP i can configure sendmail.ini to forward local email.
ReplyDeleteneed to set
smtp_sever
smtp_port
auth_username
auth_password
this works when using my own server, not gmail so can't say for certain you'd have no problems
I'm positive it would require SMTP authentication credentials as well.
ReplyDeleteuse stunnel on your server, to send with gmail. google it.
ReplyDeletePEAR: Mail worked for me sending email messages from Gmail. Also, the instructions: How to Send Email from a PHP Script Using SMTP Authentication (Using PEAR::Mail) helped greatly. Thanks, CMS!
