Darned email in flash

[speckledapple]

Ok, i have been trying to set up a form in flash with an php file handling the code then sending it to an email. Although I have managed to get the thing to send info to email, the information is sends is just strange. It is usually long and lengthy, without it being just the normal text of what i need it to be. below is what is being outputted. I thought i was missing something somewhere but ha i dont know.


The PHP file:

<?php
$sendTo = "[e-mail]";
$last =  $_POST['lastName'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message =  $_POST['message'];
 
$subject = 'SSD Inquiry from ' . ($_POST['firstName']);
 
$headers = 'From: ' . $_POST["firstName"];
$headers .= "<" . $email . ">\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $email . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: " . $email;
$message = $message;
 
 
mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
 

--------------------------------------------------------
the code for the submit button:

on (release) {
form.loadVariab les("emailgo.ph p", "POST");
}

------------------------------------------------------------
the code for the movie clip (the form fields are placed in a movie clip named form)

onClipEvent(dat a){
_root.nextFrame ();

}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the output in the email inbox:
the from field - <TEXTFORMAT LEADING=\"2\">< P ALIGN=\"LEFT\"> <FONT FACE=\"Trebuche t MS\" SIZE=\"12\" COLOR=\"#000000 \" LETTERSPACING=\ "0\" KERNING=\"0\">a mir</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>

the same goes for the subject field and the message part. It does put out the variables but also puts out that formatting stuff as well and i cant get rid of it. any help would be great. thanks.
