Re: questions about if statements regarding a checkbox

I tried that, but I'm getting the syntax error that says "unexpected T_IF". Probably because I'm trying to process this information directly in an email rather letting a mysql database handle the data, which I find harder to set up when writing a script from scratch than it would be to code a php script to send the data in an email.

I tried if($check == true) and I tried putting the word "true" in double quotes, and both of them caused the "unexpected variable" syntax error. The only problem is, all I could think to use was that line of code I just used, I'm not sure what the proper syntax is for checkbox when using the if statement to send one email when the checkbox is checked and a different email when it's not checked. I'm wanting to send an email to the site admin with the information given by the person who filled out the form that contains the checkbox. Thanks, Ben
