How do I display text in bold in a simple contact form?
Question
I would like to know how to bold face certain text in a contact form. I am sort of new at this. I would like categorize the output of the form. For example:
Contact Information: (in bold) Name:
Email: . . . Event / Trip Details: (in bold) Num of passengers: . . .
So far I have only "Contact information:" and "Event / Trip Details" below. I am not sure what to do to bold face them.
$formcontent="Contact Information: \n \nName: $name \n \nEmail: $email
\n \nPhone: $phone \n \nCompany / Group Name: $cmpny \n \nStreet Name:
$street \n \nCity, State, Zip Code: $city_st_zip \n \nRespond Via:
$respond \n \nEvent / Trip Details: \n \nNumber of Passengers:
$num_passengers \n \nTrip Type: $trip_type \n \nNumber of Pickups:
$num_pickups \n \nBus Size: $bus_size \n \nName: $pickup_name \n
\nStreet Name: $pickup_street_name \n \nCity, State, Zip Code:
$pickup_city_st_zip \n \nDepart Date: $depart_date \n \nDepart Time:
$depart_time \n \nName: $dropoff_name \n \nStreet Name:
$dropoff_street_name \n \nCity, State, Zip Code: $dropoff_city_st_zip
\n \nReturn Date: $dropoff_date \n \nReturn Time: $dropoff_time \n
\nItinerary / Special Instructions / Additional Info: $spec_instr \n
\nAirport Meet & Greet: $meet_greet \n \nADA Accessible Coach: $ada \n
\nExtra Storage: $extra \n \nHow did you find us? $find_us";
$recipient = "jldouglas58@gmail.com";
$subject = "Request for a Quote";
$mailheader = "From: $email \r\n";
mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!");
header( 'Location: http://www.distancebrothers.com/quote-
confirmation.html') ;?>

First of all the email header shoud state that the mail is in HTML format.
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
Then you format your message in HTML eg:
$formcontent="<html> <body>Contact Information: \n \nName: <strong>$name </strong>\n \nEmail: $email
\n \nPhone: $phone \n \nCompany / Group Name: $cmpny \n \nStreet Name:
$street \n \nCity, State, Zip Code: $city_st_zip \n \nRespond Via:
$respond \n \nEvent / Trip Details: \n \nNumber of Passengers:
$num_passengers \n \nTrip Type: $trip_type \n \nNumber of Pickups:
$num_pickups \n \nBus Size: $bus_size \n \nName: $pickup_name \n
\nStreet Name: $pickup_street_name \n \nCity, State, Zip Code:
$pickup_city_st_zip \n \nDepart Date: $depart_date \n \nDepart Time:
$depart_time \n \nName: $dropoff_name \n \nStreet Name:
$dropoff_street_name \n \nCity, State, Zip Code: $dropoff_city_st_zip
\n \nReturn Date: $dropoff_date \n \nReturn Time: $dropoff_time \n
\nItinerary / Special Instructions / Additional Info: $spec_instr \n
\nAirport Meet & Greet: $meet_greet \n \nADA Accessible Coach: $ada \n
\nExtra Storage: $extra \n \nHow did you find us? $find_us </body> </html>";

As I can understand you would like to print that ugly text as a HTML code. Use <strong> tag to make text bold:
<strong>Name:</strong>

<strong> Contact Information:</strong> Name:
<strong> Email: . . . Event / Trip Details:</strong> Num of passengers: . .
