Solved: How do I save the textarea (including any images) in WYMEditor using php

Just installed WYMEditor on a clients site. Using the 01-basic.html as the basis. My specific page is php, because I need to save the content to a MySql database field & mail() the content out.
here is the code:

<?php
session_start();
ob_start(); // ensures anything dumped out will be caught
require('db.php');

if(isset($_POST['new']) && $_POST['new']==1 && $errors =='')
{
$mm_date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
$body =$_REQUEST['body'];
$body = stripslashes($body);
$subject =$_REQUEST['subject'];
//send the email
// if ($_SESSION['username']<>'admin') {
$query = "SELECT email from users where username='".$_SESSION['username']."'"; 
$resultemail = mysql_query($query) or die ( mysql_error());
$rowemail = mysql_fetch_row($resultemail);
$too = $rowemail[0];
$from = $rowemail[0];

$username = $_SESSION['username'];

//send the email

                $to .= implode(", ", $_SESSION['emails']);
                $ffrom = "-f" . $from;
		$ip = isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) ? $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] : '';


$messageopen = "
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML email</title>
</head>
<body>
";

$messageclose = "
</body>
</html>
";

        $body = $messageopen.$body.$messageclose;

        $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
        $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";

		$headers .= "From: $from \r\n";
        $headers .= 'BCC: '. implode(",", $_SESSION['emails']) . "\r\n";
		$headers .= "Reply-To: $from \r\n";
		$headers .= "Return-Path: <bounced@fxxxxxxxxxx.com> /r/n";


                mail($too, $subject, $body, $headers, $ffrom);
        	
        	while (ob_get_status()) 
{
    ob_end_clean();
}

$body = str_replace("'","`",$body);

                $ins_query="INSERT INTO mmerge(`mmdate`, `mmuser`, `mmsubject`, `mmbody`, `mmto`) VALUES ('$mm_date', '$username', '$subject', '$body', '$to')";
                mysql_query($ins_query) or die(mysql_error());
                header('Location: dashboard.php');
                exit();
}
?>

});
</script>
    
</body>
</html>

Open in new window

Except for the added Subject input, this is very similar to the example given.
What I need to do is assign the formatted textarea to the php variable $body.
It works, but only for the text, it doesn't contain the complete content, unlike the Preview button which is exactly what I want to send (including any images).
