email form that handles multiple addresses

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 23.2007

Hello,
I’d like to create an email form that has the ability to handle numerous email addresses of contacts on a page. Is there a way that when you click a users email link it directs to the form and populates the send address with an email address specific to that person? Does this require a database? I thought that you could send the address as a variable that the from then uses. How could I go about this?
regards,
Steve W.

@NightShift58Mar 24.2007 — Just like any other $_GET.[code=php]<a href='[email protected]'>Bokeh</a>[/code]In nextpage.pgp, capture with: [b]$_GET['email'][/b].

@pcthugMar 24.2007 — Very susceptible to mail server hijacking, I'd suggest in the very least that you check that the email address against a whitelist, or better yet (prevent spam bots collecting the email address from URL's) just assign any given email a numeric indice: [code=php]
$addresses = array(
'[email protected]', // this will be the default address
'[email protected]',
'[email protected]');

$email = array_key_exists((int)$_GET['email'], $addresses) ? $addresses[(int)$_GET['email']] : $addresses[0];[/code]
[code=html]
<a href='nexptage.php?email=0'>E-mail Foo</a>
<a href='nexptage.php?email=1'>E-mail Bar</a>
<a href='nexptage.php?email=2'>E-mail Baz</a>
[/code]

Success!
