newbie fopen/explode/for/mail

[mattjgarland]

Hi,

Just trying to open a flat file with one string full of e-mail addresses separated by commas, explode it, then loop through and mail all the addresses. What is wrong with this little bit of code:

<?
$mailList=fopen("mailList.txt", "r");
$mailArray=explode (",",$mailList);
fclose($mailList);
for ($ma=0; $ma<6; $ma++)
mail ($mailList[ma],$subjectLine,$message,$fromWho);
?>

Hope this isn't too stupid--didn't see a newbie forum here.

Assume file looks like this:
[e-mail],[e-mail],[e-mail]

Try this:

$data = file("mailList.txt");

$emails = explode(","$data[0]);

while(list(,$email_add) = @each($emails)) {
mail ($$email_add,$subjectLine,$message,$fromWho);
}
