foreach in Universal Email

I am having formatting issues in the universal email template and cant seem to figure it out. Line 1 is giving me a error "unexpected T_FOREACH", yet in my html view it works fine...Any thoughts

$MailBody = $MailBody . foreach($speaker as $row){
$MailBody = $MailBody . "\r\n";
$MailBody = $MailBody . " <div class=\"email_content_boxes\">\r\n";

the for each statement should not be part of the $MailBody variable , change:

$MailBody = $MailBody . foreach($speaker as $row){

to:
foreach($speaker as $row){

foreach in Universal Email - loop content not showing in email

Hi

My form includes:

<input name="docid[]" type="checkbox" id="docid[]" value="<?php echo $row_rsDocAlerts['docid']; ?>" />
<input name="title[]" type="hidden" id="title[]" value="<?php echo $row_rsDocAlerts['title']; ?>" />
<input name="meeting" type="hidden" id="meeting" value="<?php echo $row_rsMeetingList['meetingname']; ?>" />

My UE email file has this:

//Start Mail Body
$MailBody = $MailBody . "<html><head></head><body>\r\n";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "<h1>";
$MailBody = $MailBody . $_POST['meeting'];
$MailBody = $MailBody . "</h1>\r\n";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "<ul>\r\n";

foreach($_POST['docid'] as $key => $id) {
echo "<li>".($_POST['title'][$key] ."</li>");
}

$MailBody = $MailBody . "\r\n";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "</ul>\r\n";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "</body></html>";
//End Mail Body

The meeting value shows in the email but none of the foreach values.

If I submit the form to another page that doesn't use UE and add the foreach to its body the unordered content shows.

Any ideas?

Thanks
John

Solved! foreach in Universal Email - loop content not showing in email

This works (of course ;-):

foreach($_POST['docid'] as $key => $id) {
$MailBody = $MailBody . "<li>".($_POST['title'][$key] ."</li>");
