Send email to multiple selected user

[Master]

How can I have a listbox in which user can select more than one name to send email to?

Emails values need to be combined separated by ";". Add a listbox to your submission page, for Display select name and for Value select email. There needs to be another field which is saving the combined email values. It can be a virtual field.

Use the code below in Footer of the page

<script type="text/javascript">
   
      var o_els = new Array("LISTBOX FIELD ID");   

	for (var j=0;j<o_els.length;j++){
	var fieldName = o_els[j];
	var x1=document.getElementsByName(fieldName);
	x1[0].multiple=true;
					}					
								
function splitAndParse()
{
	var o_els = new Array("LISTBOX FIELD ID"); 
	var v_result = new Array("SENT TO EMAIL FIELD");
	var result = "";
	var cleanResult = "";
	for (var k=0;k<o_els.length;k++){
	result = "";
		var fieldName = o_els[k];
		var y1=document.getElementsByName(fieldName);
	  	for (var i = 0; i < y1[0].length; i++) { 
		if (y1[0].options[i].selected) { 

		result += y1[0].options[i].value+ " ; " ; 
} 
} 
	if (result.length > 2) { 
	
	cleanResult = result.substring(0,(result.length-2)); 
	}
	
	document.getElementById("SENT TO EMAIL FIELD").value= cleanResult;
}
}
document.getElementById("Submit").onmouseover=splitAndParse;
</script>

replace the IDs in the code above with appropriate IDs also make sure email field is not display only. This field can be used to send email to.

What could be the syntax for replacing LIST BOX FIELD ID With desired value. For example: "Email" field in submission form.

@Ashfak, you can use your browser's Developer Tool and/or FireBug to determine the exact ID of your form element. You may also refer to Caspio's Guide with regard to form elements

In a Submission page it is InsertRecordFieldName, update/details page EditRecordFieldName
