PHP Mailing List

[darrenwindle]

Hi, Im trying to implement my own php mailinglist script.

 

The list works and i am able to get the list to show on the specified age. however when i try to send a message to the recipients it processes the send.php script but I dont get nothing. (It doesnt send to any email adresses selected.

This script was taken from a tutorial on YouTube.

My hosting provider is Justhost.

 

the index.php (The page that displays the contents of the sql database that has agreed to be mailed with updates.)

<?php
session_start();
$page_title = 'Administration';
if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin']))
{
header("Location: ../../login.php"); 
}
include("includes/headerOut.php");

include('includes/nav.php');
?>

<div id="primaryContent">
<?php
include('includes/login.php');
?>
    <br />
    <hr />
    <h4>This section is for system administrators only</h4>
    <h4>If you have arrived here please follow this link to return to the main PinkDate website</h4>
    <form action="../../index.php">
<input type="image" class="btn_sm_left" value="submit" src="../images/sbumitBtn.jpg" />    </form>
    </div>

<div id="mainContent">
    <p>     </p>
    <p><a href="../index.php"><img src="../images/home.jpg" width="41" height="40" border="0"></a></p>
    <p><a href="../index.php">Home</a></p>
    <p>
      
    <?php
require('db/pddb.php');

echo "<h1>Mailing List</h1>Send To<p>";

//setup variables
$mailcount = 0;
$namecount = 0;

$get = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM pd_customers WHERE  cust_news='1'");

echo "<form action='send.php' method='GET'>";

while($getrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($get))
{
  echo "<input type='checkbox' name='mail_".$mailcount++."' value='".$getrow['cust_email']."' CHECKED>".$getrow['cust_first_names']." ".$getrow['cust_last_name']."(".$getrow['cust_email'].")
  <input type='hidden' name='name_".$namecount++."' value='".$getrow['cust_first_names']."'>
   <br>";
}


echo "<p>
Message:<br>
<textarea name='message'></textarea><p>
<input type='submit' name='submit' value='Send'>
</form>";
?>
</div>
    
    <?php
include('includes/footer.php');
?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

 

The send.php (The script that processes the reponse from the mailing list form)

<?php
require('db/pddb.php');
//Change php.ini smtp line
ini_set("SMTP", "xxdomain.mailserver.com"
//standard mail header
$headers  = "From: [email protected]";
//Get Message to send
$message = $_GET['message'];
//Loop through
for($x=0;$x<count($_GET);$x++)
{
if($_GET['mail_$x'])
{
  //mailsetup
  $to + $_GET["mail_$x"];
  $subject = "Newsletter";
  $body = "Dear ".$_GET["name_$x"]."
  \n\n $message \n\n
  More Text Here
  ";
  
  mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers);
}
}
echo "All Mail has been processed";
?>
