- Code: Select all
while($menu_info = mysql_fetch_array( $menu )) //loops to collect the data
{
$track[]=$menu_info['track'];
$artist[]=$menu_info['artist'];
$request[]=$menu_info['requests'];
}
$message1 = "echo '<pre>'.print_r($track, true) .'</pre>';"
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message1);
Basically what i want to do is get the information from a while loop then put that into a message to be emailed

I would just do it this way.
- Code: Select all
<?php
$message1 = "";
while($menu_info = mysql_fetch_array( $menu )) //loops to collect the data
{
$message1 .= $menu_info['track'];
$message1 .= $menu_info['artist'];
$message1 .= $menu_info['requests'];
}
//$message1 = "echo '<pre>'.print_r($track, true) .'</pre>';"
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message1);
?>
For a better understanding of the mail function, I would recommend you read my post:

and considering that you are trying to send HTML tags over the mail function, you may want to check out the php.net/mail manual page. You're missing the appropriate mime headers.
