Thread: If else statement & sending an html email

I want to send an email but here is the thing, if the person selects the button 1 then it will send the email but if they select 2 it won't send the email but do something else.
Here is the code:

PHP Code:

<?php 
if($vote<>"2"){ 
?>
<?php
$HTML = "You have selected 1 as your vote! here is the code: 4837583";
$from = no-reply@domain.com;
$to = "$emailer";
$subject = "Tester";
sendHTMLemail($HTML,$from,$to,$subject);
 
function sendHTMLemail($HTML,$from,$to,$subject)
{
$headers = "From: $from\r\n"; 
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; 
$boundary = uniqid("HTMLEMAIL"); 
 
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative;".
"boundary = $boundary\r\n\r\n"; 
$headers .= "This is a MIME encoded message.\r\n\r\n"; 
$headers .= "--$boundary\r\n".
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n".
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n\r\n"; 
 
$headers .= chunk_split(base64_encode(strip_tags($HTML))); 
$headers .= "--$boundary\r\n".
"Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n".
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n\r\n"; 
 
$headers .= chunk_split(base64_encode($HTML)); 
mail($to,$subject,"",$headers);
 
}
?>
<?php 
}
else
{
echo "";
} 
?>

I would change the if statement to

PHP Code:

if($vote == 1) 


The way it is now, it is just checking if its not equal to 2, which could mean its 1, or it could be 3, or nothing and it will still send the email.

Also $vote needs to be set somewhere beforehand
