Thank you Lief, Hanuska and Jay for your comments and advice. > (it automagically knows which result it's on)
This was the piece of information that I was missing. I did not know PHP had any "automagic" in it's handling of arrays. However, now that I think I know what's going on, my code still does not seem to be working. When I execute the following, I get a parse error on the line where my first square brackets (...for " .member[1];) appears. If I take the square brackets out, the code parses, but does not do anything. Here is the problematic code: db_connect(); $query = "select * from tablename where active = 1"; $result = mysql_query($query); while ($member = mysql_fetch_row($result)); { $subject = "EigoImprov Newsletter for " .member[1]; $mailcontent = "Dear " .$member[0] .",\n".$message ."\nThis message was sent to [2]" .$member; mail($member[2], $subject, $mailcontent, $fromaddress); } Why is this not parsing? -- Cheers!
