Hello,
First of all apologies if this has been posted before, having trouble findin the answer,
Let me start by inserting the code I have having the problem with, apologies if this isn't the correct way of doing things but I am still a newbie at php
<?php
include('config.inc');
mysql_select_db($dbname);
$sql="SELECT * FROM db, 1st_reminder WHERE stage_two = '1' AND 2nd_email_sent = '0'";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
$count = 1;
while ($rows = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
$to = $rows['contact_email'];
$from = "email@domain.com";
$subject = "Subject";
$message .= $rows['1st_body'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
if ($count % 5 == 0) {
sleep(5);
}
$count++;
}
$sql="UPDATE db SET 2nd_email_sent ='1' WHERE 2nd_email_sent ='0'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
mysql_close();
?>
The issue I am having is if there is more than one email that goes out, (which will be the case once finished) the email is duplicated, so I get the email going to all the recipients but the body of the message is repeated, has any one got any ideas where I might be going wrong
This is a project I am working on for work, it generates email as reminders to customers, so it will be sending out several a day
Cheers
Martin
