while ($tantoData = mysql_fetch_array($tantoResult))
{
$tantoEmailArray[] = $tantoData;
}
now all the values are stored into an array ($tantoEmailArray). to convert
an array to a string and join the elements together by a delimiter, use
"implode".
hence: implode(",",$tantoEmailArray);
so final email command could be:
mail(implode(",",$tantoEmailArray), $subject, $mailcontent, $addHeaders);
