PHP Contact Form - Sending email to multiple recipients
Question
How would I go about making this form able to send to multiple recipients? At the moment it's only allowing me to send it to 1 email only, and when I try typing multiple in (eg "user1@example.com, user2@example.com") it returns the message for when it's invalid. What do I need to do to fix this?
EDIT: The user has to input the email address it wants to sent to, but it only works with 1, which is why I'm asking for help on how I can edit the code to work with multiple emails/recipients and to be separated with a comma and space.
Here is the code
<?php
if(isset($_POST['email'])) {
$email_to = array($_GET["celebrant_emails"]);
$email_subject = "Email from website Contact Form";
function died($error) {
// your error code can go here
echo "We are very sorry, but there were error(s) found with the email you submitted. ";
echo "These errors appear below.<br /><br />";
echo $error."<br /><br />";
echo "Please go <a href='http://celebrantsaustralia.asn.au/celebrants-trial.htm'>back</a> and fix these errors.<br /><br />";
die();
}
// validation expected data exists
if(!isset($_POST['first_name']) ||
!isset($_POST['last_name']) ||
!isset($_POST['email']) ||
!isset($_POST['comments']) ||
!isset($_POST['celebrant_emails'])) {
died('We are sorry, but there appears to be a problem with the email you submitted.');
}
$first_name = $_POST['first_name']; // required
$last_name = $_POST['last_name']; // required
$email_from = $_POST['email']; // required
$comments = $_POST['comments']; // required
$celebrant_emails = $_POST['celebrant_emails']; // required
$error_message = "";
$email_exp = '/^[A-Za-z0-9._%-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,4}$/';
if(!preg_match($email_exp,$email_from)) {
$error_message .= 'The Email Address you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
}
$string_exp = "/^[A-Za-z .'-]+$/";
if(!preg_match($string_exp,$first_name)) {
$error_message .= 'The First Name you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
}
if(!preg_match($string_exp,$last_name)) {
$error_message .= 'The Last Name you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
}
if(strlen($comments) < 2) {
$error_message .= 'The Message you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
}
if(!preg_match($email_exp,$celebrant_emails)) {
$error_message .= 'The Celebrant Email(s) you entered does not appear to be valid.<br />';
}
if(strlen($error_message) > 0) {
died($error_message);
}
$email_message = "Email details below.\n\n";
function clean_string($string) {
$bad = array("content-type","bcc:","to:","cc:","href");
return str_replace($bad,"",$string);
}
$email_message .= "First Name: ".clean_string($first_name)."\n";
$email_message .= "Last Name: ".clean_string($last_name)."\n";
$email_message .= "Email: ".clean_string($email_from)."\n";
$email_message .= "Message: ".clean_string($comments)."\n";
// create email headers
$headers = 'From: '.$email_from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$email_from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
@mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);
?>
<!-- include your own success html here -->

There are numerous ways of doing this.
$email_to = "jhewitt@amleo.com,some@other.com,yet@another.net";
$email_to = 'Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>';
If you need to add emails as CC or BCC, add the following part in the variable you use as for your header :
$headers .= "CC: sombodyelse@noplace.com".PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "BCC: hidden@special.com".PHP_EOL;

$email=$_POST['email']; // write multiple emails with comma's
$emails=explode(',', $email); // explode email with comma's
foreach($emails as $one_email)
{
$touser=$one_email;
$subjectAdmin= "subject";
$headersAdmin = "From: noreply@talentswype.com\r\n";
$headersAdmin .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$messageuser ='msg here';
$emailSenduser = mail($touser,$subjectAdmin,$messageuser,$headersAdmin);
}

Write one mail function per email.
mail('example1@example.com', 'My Subject', $message);
mail('example2@example.com', 'My Subject', $message);
mail('example3@example.com', 'My Subject', $message);
mail('example4@example.com', 'My Subject', $message);
mail('example5@example.com', 'My Subject', $message);
or
foreach($mail as $mails ){
mail($mail, 'My Subject', $message);
}
