[SOLVED] PHP Email Image

[Ken2k7]

Hi,

I'm trying to include an image in an email with the PHP mail() function, but all I get is the text, not the image. Does anyone know how to accomplish this feat?

 

Thanks and much obliged,

Ken

Are you setting the header's mime type properly

Are you setting the header's mime type properly

Uh nope.  I don't know too much about this. I tried HTML.

 

Could you give an example? I can follow that. =)

 

Thanks.

I created a small function that I use for this, just for kicks.

 

<?php
function SendMail($To,$Subject,$Body,$From='noreply',$Type='text/html') {
$Headers="MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$Headers.="Content-type: ".$Type."; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$Headers.="From: Yoursite.com <".$From."@yoursite.com>\r\n";
$Headers.="Reply-To: ".$From."@yoursite.com\r\n";
mail($To,$Subject,$Body,$Headers,"-f ".$From."@yoursite.com");
}
?>

Basically if your storing an image in a directory you need to search that directory for the image path then put it into the email script. But for the image to be displayed by the recipient you need to give it an absolute path for example.

 

'<img src="http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].'/'.$image_path.'" />';

 

let me know if ur still stuck

Thanks Jabop. I'll update when I verify its functionality. =)
