Send Email Only when radio option is Selected

Question

I am modifying a registration form to include two radio buttons for the account type the customer is applying for. So I have two new buttons: Personal Account [] Corporate Account [].

If the customer selects personal account, value "1" is saved to a new column in my customer table (account_type), and if corporate account is selected, the value "0" is saved. Now, what I want to do is to modify the code below that sends an email to admin every time a new customer registers so that it sends an extra email if a customer has applied for a Corporate account.

$mail = new Mail();
$mail->protocol = $this->config->get('config_mail_protocol');
$mail->parameter = $this->config->get('config_mail_parameter');
$mail->hostname = $this->config->get('config_smtp_host');
$mail->username = $this->config->get('config_smtp_username');
$mail->password = $this->config->get('config_smtp_password');
$mail->port = $this->config->get('config_smtp_port');
$mail->timeout = $this->config->get('config_smtp_timeout');
$mail->setTo($data['email']);
$mail->setFrom($this->config->get('config_email'));
$mail->setSender($this->config->get('config_name'));
$mail->setSubject($subject);
$mail->setText($message);
$mail->send();

**// Send to main admin email if new account email is enabled**
if ($this->config->get('config_account_mail')) {
    $mail->setTo($this->config->get('config_email'));
    $mail->send();
    // Send to additional alert emails if new account email is enabled
    $emails = explode(',', $this->config->get('config_alert_emails'));
    foreach ($emails as $email) {
        if (strlen($email) > 0 && preg_match('/^[^\@]+@.*\.[a-z]{2,6}$/i', $email)) {
            $mail->setTo($email);
            $mail->send();
        }
    }
}

The code above after "//send to main admin if new account email is enabled" just sends a simple email to admin saying someone new has registered. I want to keep that, but I would like to send the extra email if someone is applying for a corporate account. I guess I just need to use an if statement to check whether account_type=0 but I am not an expert and I don't know how to integrate that to the existing code. I hope I have explained myself well. By the way, all this code is from Open Cart, open-source e commerce system.

Answer 1

you can use if condition like

if(isset($_POST['ur_radio_ele_name']) && $_POST['ur_radio_ele_name']!=''){
  // your code to send mail
}

if $_POST['ur_radio_ele_name'] is set and not null then only it would send mail, otherwise it wont.
