mailing values from a variable

[zipper]

Thanks to LordShryku I was able to construct this piece of code and it works fine. While i was trying to send the values of $list with a mail() function it appears that only one value is getting sent to the recipient instead of all the values within the $list variable. How comes ?

//building list values
for ($counter=0; $counter<3; $counter++){
if ($quantity[$counter] !=0){
$list = "$quantity[$counter]" . " x $prod[$counter]<br>";
echo "$list";
}
}

//MAILSCRIPT :
mail("[e-mail]", "order form website", "$list");
}

//thanks i.a.

try
$list .= "$quantity[$counter]" . " x $prod[$counter]<br>";
instead of
$list = "$quantity[$counter]" . " x $prod[$counter]<br>";

Hi Drew,

When I use the dot it looks like the script is giving me the first value two times. Can you tell me what the dot does ?
thanks, zip.

It's the concatenating assignment operator

Quick example:

$a .= $b;

//is the same as 

$a = $a . $b;
