I have a webserver capable of sending emails from a gmail account. I have one page that generates a dynamic form based on an SQL query, etc. Then, I have a form to enter your email address, and it redirects to another page that says "message sent", and the code on that page sends the email. However, how do I change the contents of the email so that it was the table generated on the previous page? I don't want to recreate the whole table and set it to a variable, because I think there's a more efficient way to do it. Any help would be appreciated.
"search.php" (this page generates the table based on a query executed by a previous page)
