The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

PHP mail() showing same email address over and over, instead of new registrant.  Is this problem with my $_SESSION variables?

PHP mail() showing same email address over and over, instead of new registrant.  Is this problem with my $_SESSION variables?

I set up a response email to each new dealer who registers on our site and it now works great showing the variable names inside the email body!!! (thanks to angellll at EE!)
However, now, when testing it, Even though I use different fake email addresses ((with a cc: to my email address, so that I can see what the response looks like.)) it is giving me the SAME email address over and over and over in the body of the email response.

ie:  Once it started showing the email and password in the body of the email,  I realized that it is showing the same one over and over, no matter who i use as a login or password.  It looks like it is stuck in a time warp!! lol...

so does this have something to do with the $_SESSION variables or is it in my code?? or could it be that I am using a PC with IE and Mozilla to test, and can't completely clear out the cookies???  not sure why it would take the variable from a previous registered user, instead of the current registering user??

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!
