    Hi

    I have a html contact form in my website and it's action is using a php file and I am trying to get the contact form to send a email to two different email addresses but can't get it working correctly

    The php file coding the contact form is using is below

    <?php   
     
     
    // EDIT THE 2 LINES BELOW AS REQUIRED 
     
     
    $send_email_to = "sales@bhwebsites.co.uk"; 
    $ccemail = "sales@irhwebsites.co.uk"; 
    $email_subject = "Enquiry from the website"; 
     
     
    function send_email($name,$email,$email_message) 
    { 
      global $send_email_to; 
    global $ccemail; 
      global $email_subject; 
     
     
      $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n"; 
      $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\r\n"; 
      $headers .= "From: ".$email. "\r\n"; 
    $headers .= "Cc: ".$ccemail. "\r\n"; 
     
     
      $message = "<strong>Email = </strong>".$email."<br>";

      $message .= "<strong>Message = </strong>".$email_message."<br>"; 
      @mail($send_email_to, $ccemail, $email_subject, $message,$headers); 
      return true; 
    } 
     
     
    function validate($name,$email,$message)

    Just seperate the multiple email addresses with a comma
    $send_email_to = "sales@bhwebsites.co.uk,anotheremail@here.co.uk";

    Side note,
    @mail($send_email_to, $ccemail, $email_subject, $message,$headers); 
    Code (markup):
    $ccemail should not be in there as its already part of your headers or here
    global $ccemail;
    Code (markup):
    so you can remove those bits.
