PHP Code in PHP Mail?

[jimleeder123]

I am trying to echo out product names onto php mail. I have it in the $message variable, code is below (have cut out a lot of other stuff in there, HTML code is all working fine)

 

$message = '

 

'for($z=0;$z<$h;$z++) {
            
            echo "<tr>";
                echo '<td colspan="18">'.$_SESSION['transferproducts'.$z.''].'</td>';
                echo '<td colspan="2">'.$_SESSION['transferprices'.$z.''].'</td>';
            echo "</tr>";
            
            }'

 

';

 

I'm getting an error on the line where the "for" starts. How can I get it to work correctly?

You want to use the concatenation assignment operator in the for loop not echo.

$message = '';

// generate html
for($z=0;$z<$h;$z++)
{
    $message .= "<tr>";
    $message .= '<td colspan="18">'.$_SESSION['transferproducts'.$z.''].'</td>';
    $message .= '<td colspan="2">'.$_SESSION['transferprices'.$z.''].'</td>';
    $message .= "</tr>";
} 

// output generated html
echo $message;

But I've got some stuff required in the message as well that shouldn't be repeated by the for loop. For example a confirmation of order message and customer ID.

 

Would I just put $message .= ..... before the for loop as well as having the for loop like above?

Sorted it.
