how to send multiple email using php
Question
I have a button that when pressed, it will email updates on the emails that are in the database.
This is my code. I also got this from a forum but i don't know what's wrong that it don't get the emails in the database:
$form_action = $_POST['form_action'];
if ($form_action == 'REGISTER') {
//send to your self
$to ="admin@admin.com";
$subject = 'System Email';
// message
$message = "<html>".
"<head>".
" <title>System Email</title>".
"</head>".
"<body>".
"message here!".
"</body>".
"</html>";
//get email list
//open database connection
$username = "root";
$password = ""; //input your password here.
$database = "dbase";
//connect to database
$link=mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die("<b>Unable to specified database</b>");
$query="SELECT email_address FROM db_other_details";
$result=mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
mysql_close($link);
$row=1;
$numrows=mysql_num_rows($result);
$bccfield="Bcc: ". mysql_result($result,0,"email_address");
while($row<$numrows)
{
$email=mysql_result($result,$row,"email_address");
$bccfield .= "," . $email; //seperate by comma
$row++;
}
$bccfield .= "\r\n";
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= $bccfield;
$headers .= 'From: System <admin@admin.com>' . "\r\n";
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message,$headers);
if (mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers)) {
header("Location: ".WEBSITE_URL."email-all.html?result=success");
} else {
header("Location: ".WEBSITE_URL."email-all.html?result=failed");
}
}
switch (trim($_GET['result'])) {
case "failed":
$sendmail_result = "failed";
$form_message = "Cannot send email to " . $numrows . "registrants at this time. Please try again later.";
break;
case "success":
$sendmail_result = "success";
$form_message = "Email sent to" . $numrows ." registrants.";
}
Any suggestions on how to do this? I checked some other topics here with same question but of no help.
Thanks!

1) Use PDO.
2) Make sure you have error messages on for php.
3) var_dump / print_r your variables & GET requests to see if the data is available.
4) Check mysql error log for potential query errors.
5) UTF-8 encode your data before sending them with php::mail() function.
