[SOLVED] Can you help me with this code?

[timmah1]

I have a form to send out multiple emails based on who is clicked

<select name="provider" multiple size="10">
<option>Please choose...</option>
<option value="<?php echo $row['EmailAddress']; ?>"><?php echo $row['realname']; ?></option>
</select>

 

It works, but it only selects the last one on the list

Can you tell me why this only selecting one person?

 

$provider = array("$_POST[provider]");

$together = implode(", ", $provider);
for($i = 0; $i < count($provider); $i++){

     mail($together, $subject, $message, 
        "From: The Honeypot club<[email protected]/>\n");

echo "Announcement has been sent to $together";

 

Thanks in advance

change

<select name="provider" multiple size="10">

to

<select name="provider[]" multiple size="10">

which will place the selected objects in a subarray of $_POST

That tells me this

"Announcement has been sent to Array"

 

And the message isn't being sent to anybody

cuz it's an array. u have to loop through or implode the array.

I'm almost positive that my original post clearly shows that

[laffin]

$provider = array("$_POST[provider]");

what u did here, is put "Array" into an array.

since $_POST['provider'] is an array, php returns the string 'Array'

basicly the same as doing this

$provider=array('Array');

 

when all u needed was

$provider=$_POST['provider'];

oh, didn't realize that right away.

Been up all night doing this site, code starts to look blurry.

 

Thank you, works fine now
