Recordset Scrolling

[Anon]

Hi,
I'm puttingt together a mailing list. The list of addresses is posted to the php file as a comma seperated list. I then want to send an email to each individual address rather than mailing to all at once.
I envisage using a while loop but can't find any decent examples. If anyone has any great ideas it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

use of split() function or explode() should solve this..
its very easy..
I feel the following might be helpful

ex:-

//your string separated by comma
$addr="[e-mail],[e-mail],[e-mail],[e-mail]";

$addresses = explode(",",$addr);
//ALTERNATIVELY U CAN USE
$addresses = split(",",$addr);
//NOW LOOP
for($i=0;$i<sizeof($addresses);$i++)
{
//send mail using the address
//as $addresses;
mail(addresses, "Your Subject", "msg Line 1\nmsg Line 2\nLine 3");
//For additional headers in mail refer
//manuals

}
//HOPE ITS DONE..

Take Care

foreach (explode(',', $addresses) as $email) {
mail($email, 'Subject', 'Body');
}

Or for a more fun way to do it:

function array_mail($value, $key, $body) {
mail ($value, 'Mail from me', $body);
}

array_walk(explode(',', $addresses), 'array_mail', 'Message Body');

[toma42]

for($i=0;$i<sizeof($addresses);$i++)

has really been trumped by the

foreach($addresses as $key => $value)

in php4. Check it out Ranjith.
