Hi Guys,
I hope somebody can help me out. I've tried to figure this out by myself the past few weeks, but can't! Newbie to php, taking over project from somebody else.
I have an online form that users fill in, this info is sent via email to myself successfully (Admin). I would like instead to send multiple emails -
- one to Admin saying 'User xyz has filled out the form below'
- AND one sent to the User saying 'Thank you for filling out the form below'
- AND one sent to Support saying 'User xyz has requested for support please see below'
So three different email bodys and three different recipients.
All I have currently is a common.php page with two functions (one for each email form I presume), and a form.php page with the actual html form (and some php code).
First function in common.php
function sendEmailToAdmin($make, $model, $isSetupHelpReqd){
$isSetupHelpReqd = (isset($isSetupHelpReqd) && $isSetupHelpReqd =='1') ? 'yes' : 'no';
$HTMLmessage1 = "<font color=#4284B0 face=Arial size=4><strong>".$GLOBALS["app-name"]."</strong></font><br /> \n
<p>Admin, please see the form below.</p>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Make:</td>
<td>".$make."</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Model:</td>
<td>".$model."</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Setup Request:</td>
<td>".$isSetupHelpReqd."</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<hr />".$GLOBALS["appurl"]." ";
require("scripts/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = $GLOBALS["smtp_server"];
$mail->SMTPAuth = false;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->From = $GLOBALS["emailsenderaddress"];
$mail->FromName = $GLOBALS["emailsendername"];
$mail->Body = $HTMLmessage1;
$mail->AltBody = "This email is in HTML format please view in HTML mode";
$mail->Subject = "Form Submission - Request";
$mail->AddAddress("admin@something.com"); // this sends the email to Net Services
if(!$mail->Send()){
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
} // end sendEmailToAdmin Function
Second function in commpn.php
function sendEmailToSupport($make, $model, $isSetupHelpReqd){
$isSetupHelpReqd = (isset($isSetupHelpReqd) && $isSetupHelpReqd =='1') ? 'yes' : 'no';
$HTMLmessage2 = "<font color=#4284B0 face=Arial size=4><strong>".$GLOBALS["app-name"]."</strong></font><br /> \n
<p>Support has been requested, please see the form below.</p>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Make:</td>
<td>".$make."</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Model:</td>
<td>".$model."</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Setup Request:</td>
<td>".$isSetupHelpReqd."</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<hr />".$GLOBALS["appurl"]." ";
require("scripts/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = $GLOBALS["smtp_server"];
$mail->SMTPAuth = false;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->From = $GLOBALS["emailsenderaddress"];
$mail->FromName = $GLOBALS["emailsendername"];
$mail->Body = $HTMLmessage2;
$mail->AltBody = "This email is in HTML format please view in HTML mode";
$mail->Subject = "Request Completed - Assistance Requested";
$mail->AddAddress("support@something.com");
if(!$mail->Send()){
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
} // end sendEmailToSupport Function
I also found this code in the second function commented out, but it never did anything
//send copy of form to Support if Setup box is ticked
if(isset($_POST['assistance_reqd_for_setup'])&&$_POST['assistance_reqd_for_setup']==1){
$mail->AddAddress("Support@something.com");
$mail->Subject = "Form Submission - Request - Setup";
$mail->Body = $HTMLmessage2;
}
//end send mail to Support
This is the code after my insert query on the form.php page
if(sendEmailToAdmin($make, $model,$isSetupHelpReqd)){
$boolMailSent = true;
}else{
$boolMailSent = false;
}
Any guidance or help at all would be much appreciated, apologies for my lack of knowledge and ignorance however I have tried to fix this myself.
I've looked at switch statements, if else loops, clearaddress() to send to multiple recipients amongst others.
Thanks in advance,
J
