OK I will look into MIME format. This has to be done just when sending an email with an attachment? My script worked fine until I had to add the attcahment code. I thought it would be pretty straight forward but have obviously been struggling with it. Thanks

I am having trouble learning how to a send an attachment using a PHP script. Any help is greatly appreciated. Below is my script followed by a snippet of my HTML: <?php $to = "jsmith@yahoo.com"; $subject = "Purchase Received!"; $email = $_REQUEST['email']; $mar_stat = $_REQUEST['mar_stat']; $client_name = $_REQUEST['client_name']; $spouse_name = $_REQUEST['spouse_name']; $client_dob_month = $_REQUEST['client_dob_month']; $client_dob_day = $_REQUEST['client_dob_day']; $client_dob_year = $_REQUEST['client_dob_year']; $spouse_dob_month = $_REQUEST['spouse_dob_month']; $spouse_dob_day = $_REQUEST['spouse_dob_day']; $spouse_dob_year = $_REQUEST['spouse_dob_year']; $client_income = $_REQUEST['client_income']; $spouse_income = $_REQUEST['spouse_income']; $address = $_REQUEST['address']; $city = $_REQUEST['city']; $state = $_REQUEST['state']; $zip = $_REQUEST['zip']; $email = $_REQUEST['email']; $area = $_REQUEST['area']; $prefix = $_REQUEST['prefix']; $phone = $_REQUEST['phone']; $contact_method = $_REQUEST['contact_method']; $client_ret_age = $_REQUEST['client_ret_age']; $spouse_ret_age = $_REQUEST['spouse_ret_age']; $desired_gross_inc = $_REQUEST['desired_gross_inc']; $apprx_ret_invest = $_REQUEST['apprx_ret_invest']; $apprx_nonret_invest = $_REQUEST['apprx_nonret_invest']; $pension = $_REQUEST['pension']; $pension_comments = $_REQUEST['pension_comments']; $life_expect = $_REQUEST['life_expect']; $spouse_life_expect = $_REQUEST['spouse_life_expect']; $life_expect_comments = $_REQUEST['life_expect_comments']; $work_ret = $_REQUEST['work_ret']; $spouse_work_ret = $_REQUEST['spouse_work_ret']; $work_ret_comments = $_REQUEST['work_ret_comments']; $inheritance = $_REQUEST['inheritance']; $inheritance_comments = $_REQUEST['inheritance_comments']; $headers = "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; $headers .= "From: $email"; $message = "<b>Purchase Received!
