I am fairly new to php, but learning fast.
I have a mysql database that is storing information for a client that they input backend, then the customer views all the information as it is listed from the database, and can choose to apply to a specific one. Each one is sent to a different email as they chose it depending which employee is hiring.
if in my apply.php file which contains the mail function i set
$to = 'email@email.com'
my mail function works fine, but I am trying to set $to to equal a email address that is being passed via a url from the previous page.
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="javascript:popUp('apply.php?sub=$row[0]&remail=$row[4]')" target="_blank">
so I get something like /apply.php?sub=NewEmployee&remail=email@email.com
I am then calling down the variables in the apply.php form.
$to does obtain the email address from the variable, but when in this form it does not work in the mail function and does not send the email, but when I change $to = 'email@email.com' it works.
I am sure i am missing something simple here, and help?
thanks in advance!
