Making use of the vbmail function ?

Am planning to make use of this function to notify a member ( via email ) when someone comments on something he/she posted.

PHP Code:


		
			
$subject= Email Notification: New Comment Posted';

$message="A new comment was posted. Please login to check.";

vbmail($vboptions['webmasteremail'], $subject, $message);

Now this code would send the email notification to the webmaster ( ie. me ).
But say this email notification was supposed to be sent to a member called "Helloworld", how can I pass it into the vbmail function , using his userid ?

Will this work ? :
( assuming data[userid] came from a query result )

PHP Code:


		
			
$usersid = $data['userid'];

$user = fetch_userinfo($usersid);

$username = $user['username'];



$subject= Email Notification: New Comment Posted';

$message="A new comment was posted. Please login to check.";

vbmail($user['username'], $subject, $message);

Any advice would be much appreciated. :)
Thanks

close but I think you want

PHP Code:


		
			
$usersid = $data['userid'];

$user = fetch_userinfo($usersid);

$username = $user['username'];



$subject= 'Email Notification: New Comment Posted';

$message="A new comment was posted. Please login to check.";

vbmail($user['email'], $subject, $message);
