caige Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Not a joke I have place many posts on other forums for some help on how to create a contact form with a picture upload tool for my clients to upload photos and have it sent to my email! ...I think the challenge here is I am using yahoo small business host and they are picky. Any one? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/160657-300-people-cant-solve-this-yet-can-you/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gevans Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 First point, yahoo small business is closing down soon, I'd start looking for new hosting and then tackle the problem with far more ease!

gevans Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Secondly, Seeing as you've been trying for so long I'd imagine you've figured out how to upload an image with a form and php. If not a simple example can be found on the php website; http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php Following that, you need to build and send an email with the image attached. This is a very simple and perfectly structured example; http://www.webcheatsheet.com/PHP/send_email_text_html_attachment.php#attachment If you can't get your process to work with those two links the problem is either yahoo or you, not the people helping you Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/160657-300-people-cant-solve-this-yet-can-you/#findComment-847859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Not a joke I have place many posts on other forums for some help on how to create a contact form with a picture upload tool for my clients to upload photos and have it sent to my email! ...I think the challenge here is I am using yahoo small business host and they are picky. Any one? What exactly are you stuck on? There are plenty of identical examples/questions on phpfreaks with the regards to contact forms and uploading. Start with creating a basic contact form, then move on to the upload part.

caige Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Thank you every one, gevans I am going to check out the links you gave and give them a try. I have used codes from php.net however what is happening are two things, the file does upload however when I open my file manager and open the file i get a 403 forbidden message. and the contact form does come to my email but the photo does not show. I think the links you gave will help with this. Thank you all again. any other suggestions are welcome.

gevans Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 If you're getting a 403 error you may want to look at the chmod settings of the file. Once it's uploaded check it, then change it to whatever is required Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/160657-300-people-cant-solve-this-yet-can-you/#findComment-847926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
caige Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 I have just about got it, the email with all forms are going to my email 100% correctly...I still can't figure out what I need to do with the http://www.webcheatsheet.com/PHP/send_email_text_html_attachment.php#attachment. It gives great examples but not sure if it is linked to the file or placed in the html page.

ldougherty Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 What exactly happens when you try and upload using that script? Make sure your host has upload_tmp_dir set in your php.ini and that the path is writeable as well.

benphelps Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 These 300 people, did they have painted on abs, wearing shields and holding swords? If so, I doubt they would be of much help in this category, if you needed to save Sparta, then they might be of some help.

ldougherty Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 The default permissions on the uploaded file are likely not readable, try chmod 644 to see if this lets you see the file, if it doesn't then 755 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/160657-300-people-cant-solve-this-yet-can-you/#findComment-848926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
