help with sending form data to email & mysql at same time

[john m]

Hi everyone,
im new here and i was wondering if someone could help me get some code to send form data to an email address and mysql database at the same time. I have the mysql database code and it works fine. Just cant figure out how to add email code to send an email as well. any help is greatly appreciated!

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","*****","******"); //Replace with your actual MySQL DB Username and Password
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("aston_salesverification", $con); //Replace with your MySQL DB Name
$name=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file
$email=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file
$sql="INSERT INTO form_data (name,email) VALUES ('$name','$email')"; /*form_data is the name of the MySQL table where the form data will be saved.


name and email are the respective table fields*/
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) {
die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo "The form data was successfully added to your database.";
mysql_close($con);

?>
