Question

So the issue is I want multiple recipients for my PHP form.

What happens is the site user enters there email and then another email for another peroson (for example there doctor).

So what I need is the the doctor to be emailed to.

This is what I am using to know success

$mail_to = $field_emaildoc .$field_email;

This doesent seem to work?

Any ideas would be great 🙂

Thanks

one option is to add a “Cc” to your header:

$sender_email = '[e-mail]';
$sender_name = 'YOUR NAME';
$send_to = '[e-mail]';
$send_to_copy = '[e-mail]';
$message = 'THIS IS YOUR MESSAGE';
$subject = 'THIS IS YOUR SUBJECT';

$headers = 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\n";
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
$headers .= "From: $sender_name<" . $sender_email . ">" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Sender: $sender_name<" . $sender_email . ">" . "\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP " . phpversion() . "\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3" . "\n";
$headers .= "X-Sender-IP: " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . "\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: $sender_name<" . $sender_email . ">" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $sender_name<" . $sender_email . ">" . "\r\n"; 
$headers .= "Cc: $send_to_copy" . "\r\n"; 

mail($send_to,$subject,$message,$headers);

The problem with this, is that the person receiving the email can see who was copied in. An alternative would be to use: “Bcc” instead of “Cc” or just use the mail() function twice and remove the “Cc” or “Bcc”:

mail($send_to1,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($send_to2,$subject,$message,$headers);
