There must be a shorter way??

[Anon]

Hi,

I'm pretty much a newbie at PHP so any help would be really appreciated. I'm working on a simple auto-email-follow up system. I've got the code doing what I want it to do but I have a feeling this one section could be written in a "while" or "for" loop.

if ($fupnum == 1)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject1", "$body1", "From: $email_from");
}

elseif ($fupnum == 2)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject2", "$body2", "From: $email_from");
}
elseif ($fupnum == 3)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject3", "$body3", "From: $email_from");
}

elseif ($fupnum == 4)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject4", "$body4", "From: $email_from");
}

elseif ($fupnum == 5)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject5", "$body5", "From: $email_from");
}

elseif ($fupnum == 6)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject6", "$body6", "From: $email_from");
}

using something like this:

while ($i=0; $i < 6; $i++)

if ($fupnum == $i)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject['$i']", "$body['$i']", "From: $email_from");
}

I just can't get it to work. Any suggestions are welcomed.

A bit of changes in your code ..

<?php
$subject_array=array("$subject1","$subject2","$subject3","$subject4","$subject5","$subject6");
$body_array=array("$body1","$body2","$body3","$body4","$body5","$body6");
for($i=0;$i<count($subject_array);$i++)
{
if ($i==$fupnum)
{
mail("$email_to", "$subject_array[$i]", "$body_array[$i]", "From: $email_from");

}

{

}
?>

hope it will work
Enjoy

3 lines, no loops..

$subject = "subject$fupnum";
$body = "body$fupnum";

mail("$email_to", "$$subject","$$body","From: $email_form");
