Using SendMail in Forms w/PHP HTML

This is pretty weird... I have only 'joe' and 'bob' on my first form
pull down and they pass the name just fine through my $to variable to
the 2nd acknowledgment form. The array below works fine as verified
by using a print command on the array but for whatever reason, using
$mail->AddAddress($arrEmailAddresses[$to]); as part of the form mailer
returns an error where if I substitute $to (with an actual address
from the first page, the mailer works fine and mails the message.

code is as follows:
$arrEmailAddresses = array( 'joe'=>'...@server.com',
'bob'=>'...@server.com' );
print_r($arrEmailAddresses[$to]);

the above code returns the proper email to the screen but when used
below, gives me back an error.

$mail->AddAddress($arrEmailAddresses[$to]);

can someone tell me what's up with that?

thanks VERY much... :-)

Think about it! What have't you told us that you really should have?

Let me give you a clue: "gives me back an error."

WHAT ERROR?????!!!!!!

How are we supposed to help you when you don't tell us? We don't have
a crystal ball.

Sorry about that.

"data_not_accepted" when using: $mail-
>AddAddress($arrEmailAddresses[$to]);
and
"provide_address" when using $mail->AddAddress =
($arrEmailAddresses[$to]);

with either of the above syntax, the correct address from the array IS
returned to the screen with the print command shown below.

$arrEmailAddresses = array( 'joe'=>'...@server.com',
'bob'=>'...@server.com' );
print_r($arrEmailAddresses[$to]);

i.e.
joe@gmail.com prints to the page just fine, just isn't working
properly in the "AddAddress" line.

You are trying to treat AddAddress as a method in one call and as a
property in another? Which is it? If it is (as I suspect) a method, I
would put some trace statements in it (the method) to see what is
giving the error. I seem to recall you saying that you managed the
call successfully when hard coding an address, so look at the trace in
both cases (hard coded/array) and you will see what the difference is.

Finally, once again, why not use the method that I suggested a few
days ago.
