Hi,

well, that's interesting, but what are we supposed to do now?

We're not psychic. We cannot magically find your problem based on a vague description of your script. If you want us to help, we need the actual code and a concrete error description (including any error message).

I have to loop this a number of times (the user must enter how many times). Then the form must print that amount of times. but the barcode after every loop should be different.

So? Just print $_POST["counter"].

If you want to count the number of successful mails, use a separate counter that will only increment if $ok is true.

Not sure what you're trying to do. As far as I can tell, the barcode comes from $row:
PHP Code:
 $row = row("select * from city_ticketsbought where bought_uid='$uid'");
$barcode = $row->bought_barcode; 

But you always select the same (random) row in each loop run, so the bar code is always the same.

If that's not what you want, then what do you want? You have multiple tickets (?) with each one having its own barcode, and you have a counter which is specified by the user. What is supposed to happen now?

Um, and how were we supposed to know that?

Check if $_POST["counter"] is correct with var_dump($_POST) and reduce the loop to the absolute minimum (just do something like echo $i).

Also make sure you got your error_reporting turned on:
PHP Code:
 error_reporting(-1)
