Mail with attachment

[robert_gsfame]

guys, i wish that anyone can help me solving this problem

I actually want to let user send email with attachment to other users (Yahoo or google email)

 

Let say user has uploaded a word document, and the name of the document is XXX.txt and it has been stored into mysql database

 

How can i send this together with an email to users (Yahoo or google email) using mail()

 

thanx in advance

Here's the function I've been using for a while now to send email with attachements. To get a user selected file, you'll have to add an upload field to your form, and work out the details. This should get you started though.

 

<?php
function mail_attachment($file, $mailto, $from_mail, $from_name, $replyto, $subject, $body) {
    $file_size = filesize($file);
    $handle = fopen($file, "r");
    $content = fread($handle, $file_size);
    fclose($handle);
    $content = chunk_split(base64_encode($content));
    $uid = md5(uniqid(time()));
    $name = basename($file);
    $headers  = "From: $from_name<" . $from_mail . ">\n";
    $headers .= "Reply-To: <" . $from_mail . ">\n";
    $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
    $headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/related; type=\"multipart/alternative\"; boundary=\"----=MIME_BOUNDRY_main_message\"\n";
    $headers .= "X-Sender: $from_name<" . $from_mail . ">\n";
    $headers .= "X-Priority: 1\n"; //1 = Urgent, 3 = Normal
    $headers .= "Return-Path: <" . $from_mail . ">\n";
    $headers .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n";
    $headers .= "------=MIME_BOUNDRY_main_message \n";
    $headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=\"----=MIME_BOUNDRY_message_parts\"\n";

    $message = "------=MIME_BOUNDRY_message_parts\n";
    $message .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n";
    $message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable\n";
    $message .= "\n";
    /* Add our message, in this case it's plain text.  You could also add HTML by changing the Content-Type to text/html */
    $message .= "$body\n";
    $message .= "\n";
    $message .= "------=MIME_BOUNDRY_message_parts--\n";
    $message .= "\n";
    $message .= "------=MIME_BOUNDRY_main_message\n";
    $message .= "Content-Type: application/pdf;\n\tname=\"" . $name . "\"\n";
    $message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
    $message .= "Content-Disposition: attachment;\n\tfilename=\"" . $name . "\"\n\n";
    $message .= $content; //The base64 encoded message
    $message .= "\n";
    $message .= "------=MIME_BOUNDRY_main_message--\n";

    // send the message
    mail($mailto, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
