[SOLVED] Help with emailing an attachment

[elis]

Here is my full script (it's supposed to email the document after it's been uploaded)

 

<?php
/* Test emailing ability */

require_once '../startups.php';

if ( isset($_POST['submit_candidate']) ){

if ( is_uploaded_file($_FILES['resume_doc']['tmp_name']) ){
$resume_doc = fopen($_FILES['resume_doc']['tmp_name'], 'rb');
$resume_filetype = $_FILES['resume_doc']['type'];
$resume_filename = $_FILES['resume_doc']['name'];

						} else {
$resume_doc 		= null;
$resume_filetype 	= null;
$resume_filename 	= null;
						}
if(!empty($resume_doc)){
	$ext = end(explode('.',$resume_doc));
	if($ext = "doc"){
	$type ="doc";
		}
			else 
	$type = "docx";

$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($resume_doc));

$mime_boundary="==Multipart_Boundary_x".md5(mt_rand())."x";
$headers = "From: $from\r\n" .
         "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n" .
         "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\r\n" .
         " boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";
$message = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" .
         "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
         "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
         "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
         $message . "\n\n";


// The message
$message = "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3";

// In case any of our lines are larger than 70 characters, we should use wordwrap()
$message = wordwrap($message, 70);
$message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
         "Content-Type: $resume_filetype;\n" .
         " name=\"$resume_filename\"\n" .
         //"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
         //" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
         "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
         $data . "\n\n" .
         "--{$mime_boundary}--\n";

// Send
mail('email@emailplace.com','Test Subject',$message, $headers);
} 

echo "mail sent and $type"; 

}


else {
echo "<form id=\"new\" action=\"sendmail.php\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\">
<div class=\"field-label\"><label for=\"resume_doc\">Formatted Word Resume</label>:</div>
	<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"MAX_FILE_SIZE\" value=\"1000000\" />
			<input id=\"resume_doc\" name=\"resume_doc\" type=\"file\" />
			<br>
<input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit_candidate\" value=\"Submit\" /> <input type=\"button\" value=\"Reset\"/></form>"; }
?>

 

and I receive this error:

 

Warning: base64_encode() expects parameter 1 to be string, resource given in /www/atest/sendmail.php on line 27

 

The email is sent however the attachment isn't.

I'm not familiar with the mail() function at all.

Can anyone spot what I've done wrong?

$resume_doc is a file handler should that be $resume_filename?

 

Scott.

That fixed it.

Thanks!
