Does anyone know what I need to do to this in order to add $data to this email??

 

<? 
ini_set ("display_errors", "1");
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$subject		= ($_POST['subject']);
$firstname 		= ($_POST["firstname"]);
$lastname 		= ($_POST["lastname"]);
$email		= ($_POST['email']);
$telephone		= ($_POST["telephone"]);
$country		= ($_POST["country"]);
$position		= ($_POST["position"]);
$message		= ($_POST['message']);
$random		= ($_POST['random']);
$validate		= ($_POST['validate']);
      $data             = (fread(fopen($form_data, "r"), filesize($form_data))); 



if ($random==$validate)

{

$to = "info@website.com";
$subject = "$subject";
$MsgHeader = "From: APA<noreply@website.com>\n";
$MsgHeader .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$MsgHeader .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1";
$MsgBody = "
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML message</title>
</head>
<body>

The section at that link called "Sending Email with Attachment" is how you send a file attachment. You must create a multipart/mixed mime message with mime boundaries and then output the correct headers followed by the chunk_split/base64_encode contents of the file in its' section of the message.

 

The phpmailer/swiftmailer classes takes care of doing all that for you when you use their attachment methods.

This is how I did it on my site:

 

$random_hash = md5(date('r', time())); 
$mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$random_hash}x"; 
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="'.$mime_boundary.'"' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Billy Bob <'.$_POST['to'].'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Jimmy John <jimmyjohn@site.com>' . "\r\n";

// File Info
$message = $_POST['message']."\n\n".
"--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type:text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
$message . "\n\n"; 
$fileList = '';
foreach ($_FILES["file"]["error"] as $key => $error) {
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
$tmp_name = $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"][$key];
$name = $_FILES["file"]["name"][$key];
$fName = "../attach/".md5(uniqid(rand(), false)).$name;
move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $fName);

$fileatt = $fName; // Path to the file
$fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type
$fileatt_name = $name; // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment

$file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
$data = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
fclose($file); 

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

$message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .
" name=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
//"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
//" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
$data . "\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}\n";
unset($data);
unset($file);
unset($fileatt);
unset($fileatt_type);
unset($fileatt_name);
}
mail($_POST['to'],$_POST['subject'],$message,$headers);
header('Location: /mail?action=inbox');
exit;

Now it checks (it is the second if statement):

 

Edit (forgot a parenthesis):

 

$random_hash = md5(date('r', time())); 
$mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$random_hash}x"; 
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="'.$mime_boundary.'"' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Billy Bob <'.$_POST['to'].'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Jimmy John <jimmyjohn@site.com>' . "\r\n";

// File Info
$message = $_POST['message']."\n\n".
"--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type:text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
$message . "\n\n"; 
$fileList = '';
foreach ($_FILES["file"]["error"] as $key => $error) {
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
	$tmp_name = $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"][$key];
	$name = $_FILES["file"]["name"][$key];
	$fName = "../attach/".md5(uniqid(rand(), false)).$name;
	move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $fName);
	$path_parts = pathinfo($fName);
	if($path_parts['extension'] != 'exe'){   // Check for extension type

		$fileatt = $fName; // Path to the file
		$fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type
		$fileatt_name = $name; // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment

		$file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
		$data = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
		fclose($file); 

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

		$message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
		"Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .
		" name=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
		//"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
		//" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
		"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
		$data . "\n\n" .
		"--{$mime_boundary}\n";
		unset($data);
		unset($file);
		unset($fileatt);
		unset($fileatt_type);
		unset($fileatt_name);
	}else{
		unlink($fName);  // Remove file if it is an exe
	}
}
}
mail($_POST['to'],$_POST['subject'],$message,$headers);
header('Location: /mail?action=inbox');
exit;
