Alright so what I'm trying to do is send the form data to the value of whatever checkbox is checked in checkbox_1.

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<h1>Student Request Form</h1>
</head>

<body>

<?php
if(isset($_POST['checkbox_1'])) {
$checkbox_1 = implode(",", $_POST['checkbox_1']);
$to=implode(",", $_POST['checkbox_1']);

$subject = "My subject";
$txt = "Hello world!";
mail($to,$subject,$txt);
} else {
$checkbox_1 = "";
}
?>

<?php
if(isset($_POST['checkbox_2'])) {
$checkbox_2 = implode(",", $_POST['checkbox_2']);   
} else {
$checkbox_2 = "";
}
?>

<?php

$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","root","admin","form2");
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
  {
  echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
  }

/*Get Values from form*/

$todays_date="";
 if(isset($_POST['todays_date'])){ $todays_date = $_POST['todays_date']; }
$student_fname="";
 if(isset($_POST['student_fname'])){ $student_fname = $_POST['student_fname']; }
$student_lname="";
 if(isset($_POST['student_lname'])){ $student_lname = $_POST['student_lname']; }
$student_id="";
 if(isset($_POST['student_id'])){ $student_id = $_POST['student_id']; }
$phone_number="";
 if(isset($_POST['phone_number'])){ $phone_number = $_POST['phone_number'];}
$student_email="";
 if(isset($_POST['student_email'])){ $student_email = $_POST['student_email']; }
$course_num1="";
 if(isset($_POST['course_num1'])){ $course_num1 = $_POST['course_num1']; }
$course_num2="";
 if(isset($_POST['course_num2'])){ $course_num2 = $_POST['course_num2']; }
$course_num3="";
 if(isset($_POST['course_num3'])){ $course_num3 = $_POST['course_num3']; }
$section_num1="";
 if(isset($_POST['section_num1'])){ $section_num1 = $_POST['section_num1']; }
$section_num2="";
 if(isset($_POST['section_num2'])){ $section_num2 = $_POST['section_num2']; }
$section_num3="";
 if(isset($_POST['section_num3'])){ $section_num3 = $_POST['section_num3']; }
 $request_box="";
 if(isset($_POST['request_box'])){ $request_box = $_POST['request_box']; }
  $signature="";
 if(isset($_POST['signature'])){ $signature = $_POST['signature']; }
  $sig_date="";
 if(isset($_POST['sig_date'])){ $sig_date = $_POST['sig_date']; }
  $request_box="";
 if(isset($_POST['request_box'])){ $request_box = $_POST['request_box']; }


    if(isset($_POST['submit']))
    {

mysqli_query($con,"INSERT INTO student_form(todays_date, student_fname, student_lname, student_id, phone_number, student_email, course_num1, course_num2, course_num3, section_num1, section_num2, section_num3, checkbox_1, checkbox_2, request_box, signature, sig_date)  VALUES( '$todays_date','$student_fname','$student_lname', '$student_id','$phone_number','$student_email','$course_num1','$course_num2','$course_num3','$section_num1','$section_num2','$section_num3','$checkbox_1','$checkbox_2','$request_box','signature','sig_date')")

One way of going about this would be to loop your checkbox array and send an email for each item in the array. This is not fully working code, but it will give you the idea of how to go about sending emails to each email in the checkbox array.

$subject = 'Email Subject Line';
$body = 'Your Email Message';

$checkbox_array = array();

foreach($checkbox_array as $email){


    mail($email, $subject, $body, "From: youremail@domain.dev");


}

Isolate the problemo...

Does a simple email work?
Does sending text to an email work?
Does sending the body of a form in an email work?
