Davy,
Something along the lines of:
Your form items would be:
<INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX" NAME="EMAIL[]" VALUE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> user1 @
email.com <BR>
<INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX" NAME="EMAIL[]" VALUE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> user2 @
email.com <BR>
<INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX" NAME="EMAIL[]" VALUE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> user3 @
email.com <BR>
Then in PHP this get posted to, something like:
if ( is_array($_POST["EMAIL"]) )
{
// Loop through each...
foreach ($_POST["EMAIL"] as $key => $email_addr )
{
// send your email to each user...
}
}
This way you can simply add more email input fields to the form over
time
and the code will always work with it...
I'll leave the email sending as an exercise for the reader, there are
ample
good examples on php.net's doco about this.
Cheers, Andrew
