redirect mail based on subject line

[newagekat]

Hello:

I just joined so still wet behind the ears. I can read and tweak code, but I'm no programmer.

I've been using a PHP script to create a contact form, display a message on Send and to send html email.

script begins with:

<?
            function SafeHTML($string) {
	        $string = stripslashes($string);
	        $string = htmlspecialchars($string);
	        return nl2br($string);
            }
            function ValidateEmail($Email){
	        $result = ereg('^[a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+$', $Email);
	        if ($result){
		    return true;
	        } else {
		    return false;
            }
            }
            $subject = $_POST['subject'];
            $subject = SafeHTML($subject);
            $name = $_POST['name'];
            $name = SafeHTML($name);
            $email = $_POST['email'];
            $telephone = $_POST['telephone'];
            $telephone = SafeHTML($telephone);
            $message = $_POST['message'];
            $message = SafeHTML($message);
            $contact = $_POST['contact'];
            $contact = SafeHTML($contact);

            switch($_GET[action]) {
	        case "check";
	        if(strlen($subject) > 0 && strlen($name) > 0 && strlen($telephone) > 0 && strlen($email) > 0 && strlen($message) > 0 && !strstr($message, "http") && !strstr($message, "href") && ValidateEmail($email) == true) {
		    $body=

followed with html email format

then

;
		    $headers = "From: $name <$email>\r\n";
		    $headers.="Content-type: text/html\r\n";
		    mail("client name <client@somedomain.com>","New email from your website",$body, $headers);
		    print "<div class='thanks'><p>Thank you for your email, <strong>$name</strong>.</p>
		    </div>";	
            } else {
 	        print "<p class='star'><strong>You did not fill out all the required fields ( marked with * ) or you have entered an invalid email address. Please check the form and resubmit</strong></p>";
	            include("contactform.php");
            }
 	        break;
	        default:
		        include("contactform.php");
	        break;
            }
            ?>

How do I add a conditional statement in the $headers mail part to redirect mail based subject?

Any assistance is much appreciated. thank you.

Do you mean something like this?

PHP Code:

if(stristr($subject, 'blabla') === FALSE) {
    // string not found in subject
    $headers = ...;
} else {
   // string found in subject
   $headers = ...;
}

Thank you so much for replying.

Actually, falko, the subject will be a drop down, but of the the options is for solicitation. if chosen, i want the email to go to my junk folder immediately.

but maybe the code you provided can still work if i make the change below?

if(stristr($subject, 'blabla') === TRUE) {
    // string not found in subject
    $headers = <junk@domain.com>;
} else {
   // string found in subject
   $headers =  <client@domain.com>;

Use

PHP Code:

if(stristr($subject, 'blabla') === TRUE) {
    // string not found in subject
    $to_address = 'junk@domain.com';
} else {
   // string found in subject
   $to_address =  'client@domain.com';
} 


and then pass $to_address as the first parameter to PHP's mail() function.
