Files

[Chris Grigor <thunderbox@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey all,

I am having a bash at working with flat files.

What I am trying to achieve is the following

There are 2 files with info in them, 
file1 has
id,email

and file2 has 
id,filename

what I am trying to achieve is open up file1 get the id and email then
open file2 and match the id of file1 to id of file2, then if succesful
send a mail with the filename in file2.

Maybe have a look at the code...

$recp_list = fopen("mail_group_list.txt", "r");

while(!feof($recp_list))
{
	
	$line = fgets($recp_list, 255);
    
		$line = chop($line);
	
		$split = explode(",", $line);
	
		$id = $split[0];
	$email = $split[1];
	
	// time to mail.

        if ($email != "") {
				
			

$group_list = fopen("file_group_list.txt", "r");

while(!feof($group_list))
{
$groupline = fgets($group_list, 255);

$groupline = chop($groupline);

$groupsplit = explode(",", $groupline);

$groupid = $groupsplit[0];
$groupFileName = $groupsplit[1];

if($groupid = $id)
{
			

// start mailing
$fromname = "Test Mailer";
$fromaddress = "email@xxxxxxxxx"; 
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "Test message $groupFileName";
$headers = "From: \"".$fromname."\" <".$fromaddress.">\n";
   
   // Notify the user on screen if the send was succesfull
   if(mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers))

			{ 
				print "Mail sent successfully to $email";
			}
			else
			{
				print "Mail not sent to $email";
			}
		
				
			}#end if groupid = id
}#end while group list
		}#end if email


}#end while email !=""
?>


So thats the mail.php

mail_list_group.txt looks like this 

1,test@xxxxxxxx
5,test1@xxxxxxxx
7,test@xxxxxxxx

file_group_list.txt looks like this 

2,filename1.doc
3,filename2.doc
4,filename3.doc

Any help on this would be great !

Cheers
Chris

PS the formatting might come out all wrong as its mailed from a web account.
