How to send form data to multiple email addresses using PHP?

I am a web designer, and dont really know much about PHP. I have a form, and I want the values to be sent to three email addresses.

Here is my HTML:

<form id="player" method="post" action="process.php">

    <label for="name">Your Name</label>
    <input type="text" name="name" title="Enter your name" class="required">

    <label for="phone">Daytime Phone</label>
    <input type="tel" name="phone" class="required">

    <label for="email">Email</label>
    <input type="email" name="email" title="Enter your e-mail address" class="required email">


    <input type="submit" name="submit" class="button" id="submit" value="I'd like to join Now" />

</form>

I have somehow found a PHP code that should send the data to ONE email address only, but I dont even know if it works or not.

Here is the code for that:

<?php
// Get Data 
$name = strip_tags($_POST['name']);
$email = strip_tags($_POST['email']);
$phone = strip_tags($_POST['phone']);
$url = strip_tags($_POST['url']);
$message = strip_tags($_POST['message']);

// Send Message
mail( "[email protected]", "Contact Form Submission",
"Name: $name\nEmail: $email\nPhone: $phone\nWebsite: $url\nMessage: $message\n",
"From: Forms <[email protected]>" );
?>

Thanks

use 

$to = "[email protected]"
$to .= ", [email protected]";

this will help you to create multiple recipient.

The mail function (which is used in the code that you posted) allows you to specify multiple recipients. See the PHP documentation of that function for details: http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

Edit: You basically need to replace the "[email protected]" part with a list of addresses, separated by commas, e.g.:

mail("[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]", ...

Add headers 

 <?php
 // Get Data 
 $name = strip_tags($_POST['name']);
 $email = strip_tags($_POST['email']);
 $phone = strip_tags($_POST['phone']);
 $url = strip_tags($_POST['url']);
 $message = strip_tags($_POST['message']);

 $headers .="From: Forms <[email protected]>";
 $headers .="CC: Mail1 <[email protected]>";
 $headers .=", Mail2 <[email protected]>";

 // Send Message
 mail( "[email protected]", "Contact Form Submission",
 "Name: $name\nEmail: $email\nPhone: $phone\nWebsite: $url\nMessage: $message\n",
  $headers );
 ?>

You should be able to separate email addresses with commas in the first parameter of the mail() function, i.e.

mail('[email protected], [email protected]', $subject, $message, $headers);

Or sepcific CC and optionally BCC addresses as per Ahmad's answer.
