I'm on the edge of my knowledge about PHP and could really use some help.
I tweaked a form (PHPFormGenerator at sourceforge) to accept multiple
selections on a dropdown by adding the 'multiple' attribute. My problem is
that I don't know how to tweak the PHP to send (email) all of the selected
values. After much googling, I'm thinking that I need to write some php to
'implode' the array (below--try not to laugh), but I'm unsure how to include
something like that within the mail function of the processor script.
$locs = array("field_1");
echo implode(",",$locs); . "
The HTML of the select tag is: <select name="field_1[]" multiple>
The stripped down PHP email processor script I'm working with is:
<?php
session_start();
if( ($_SESSION['security_code']==$_POST['security_code']) ) {
mail("me at email.com","MyForm","FormData:
Which location(s)?: " . $_POST['field_1'] . "
");
}
?>
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks much,
Peter
