PHP attachment form not working with IE

[Dev01]

Hello all

 

I have posted this issue on several other PHP forums, unfortunately, I have not been able to resolve this problem as of yet. Any help would be great.

 

I have an HTML form, which posts to a PHP file that processes a number of fields and an attachment for pictures/images.

This works perfectly in Firefox, however, in Internet Explorer small picture files are fine, but larger ones are inconsistent. I can send a 654kb image one time which will work, other times it will not.

 

It has been suggested that I just use PHP Mailer, however, I have already spent time on this form and would like to find a resolution for this before attacking it all over again.

 

The code is below:

<?php
   2.      
   3.                      
   4.        $strname=ucfirst($_REQUEST["strname"]);
   5.     $straddress=ucfirst($_REQUEST["straddress"]);
   6.     $strcity=ucfirst($_REQUEST["strcity"]);
   7.     $strstate=ucfirst($_REQUEST["strstate"]);      
   8.        
   9.        $phone=$_REQUEST["strno"];
  10.        if($phone != ""){ $strno=$phone; } else { $strno="-"; }  
  11.        
  12.     $stremail=$_REQUEST["stremail"];  
  13.     $strcomments=ucfirst($_REQUEST["strcomments"]);
  14.  
  15.    
  16.     $filename=$_FILES["strresume"]["name"];
  17.     $filetype=$_FILES["strresume"]["type"];
  18.     $filesize=$_FILES["strresume"]["size"];
  19.     $filetemp=$_FILES["strresume"]["tmp_name"];
  20.  
  21.  
  22.        
  23.     if($filetype=="application/octet-stream" or $filetype=="text/plain" or $filetype=="application/msword" or $filetype=="image/jpg" or $filetype=="image/jpeg" or $filetype=="image/bmp" or $filetype=="image/JPG" or $filetype=="images/jpe" or $filetype=="image/gif" or $filetype=="images/eps" or $filetype=="images/tiff" or $filetype=="images/psd" or $filetype=="application/pdf" or $filetype=="application/cdr")

This is becoming very frustrating, Internet Explorer is the developers worst nightmare!

 

Thanks

you could try this

<?php
//Add
set_time_limit(0);
ini_set  ("memory_limit", "64M");

  99.     // MAIL HEADERS with attachment
100.  
101.     $fp = fopen($strresume, "rb");
102.     $file = fread($fp, $strresume_size);
?>
