Mailing the contents of an array

[cosmograf]

Hi, hoping some one can help with this one.

I have a simple shopping cart script which is working great but I want to mail the contents of the cart using the PHP mail function which is baffling me.

If I want to print the contents to screen i.e. show the contents of the cart

then I use this code which works fine:

echo"<th>REF</th><th>Item</th><th>Qty</th><th>Price</th><th>Subtotal</th><th></th></tr>";
	foreach($cart->get_contents() as $item) {
		echo "<input type='hidden' name='id' value='$id'/>";
		echo"<input type='hidden' name='baskettotal' value='$baskettotal'/>";
		echo"<input type='hidden' name='fintotal' value='$fintotal'/>";
		echo "<tr><td align=\"center\">".$item['id']."</td>";
		echo "<td>".$item['info']."</td>";
		echo "<td align=\"center\">".$item['qty']."</td>";
		echo "<td align=\"right\">£".number_format($item['price'],2)."</td>";
		echo "<td align=\"right\">£".number_format($item['subtotal'],2)."</td>";
		$tid=$item['id'];
		echo"<td><a href=\"$PHPSELF?id=$tid&remove=1\"><img src=\"images/delete.gif\" border=\"0\"></a></td></tr>";
	}

The question is how do I do the same in an email using PHP mail.?

instead of echo assign the rows to a var which you can then send in the email

Thanks, I tried that with this code

foreach($cart->get_contents() as $item) {
		$oid="{$item['id']}";
		$oinfo="{$item['info']}";
		$oqty="{$item['qty']}";
		$oprice="{$item['price']}";
		$osubtotal="{$item['subtotal']}";
		}

but that just gives me the last item in the basketn as the variable keeps getting overwritten. How do I loop it so each item lists in the PHP mail() function?

Use concatenation to add to the message variable, e.g.

$msg = '';

foreach($foo as $bar) {
    $msg .= "$bar <br>\n";
}
