wholein1 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I would like to have an file upload on my web site that for both text and pictures (jpg, Gif, etc..). I have found and modified the two to work.1. write the files to a data base MYSQL2. send the files through an email.The problem I am having is getting the files to come to me a picture (jpg, gif file. it comes as some wild code writing. Sample:Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="==Multipart_Boundary_x8c5a55f00dfacf62b9b9d3505b535d56x"This is a multi-part message in MIME format.--==Multipart_Boundary_x8c5a55f00dfacf62b9b9d3505b535d56xContent-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bitThis is an example--==Multipart_Boundary_x8c5a55f00dfacf62b9b9d3505b535d56xContent-Type: image/pjpeg; name="fish.jpg"Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=""Content-Transfer-Encoding: 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 you pleae help give me direction to solve the issue.

btherl Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I can help you a little..The function base64_decode() will decode that gibberish you see. It needs to be called directly on the gibberish though, and not on the entire email. (notice the "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64" - That tells you to use base64_decode on the text below)The rest of the format is called MIME. I'm not aware of any PHP functions to decode that for you.

wholein1 Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 hello here is the code for the attachnent. I see the base 64 applied toward the latter end. It may be that it is set in the wrong place.Iam not sure of what to do with the $imgsrc="fish.jpg"imagejpeg($imgsrc);keep in mind I am new at PHP. Iam learning how by finding the code and modifying it to fit my needs. If there is a better way please let me know. Wgat I am wanting to do is to have set up on my site a place for people to upload text files and images.I have two ways of doing this and one is to email me the attachment and the other is put it through Mysql database or I have seen another way and that is to upload it to my server. suggestions are welcomed.This is the one for sening through an email.<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html><head><title>E-mail with Attachment</title><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head><body><?phpif ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=="POST"){ // we'll begin by assigning the To address and message subject $to="administration@cafeexpress-o.com"; $subject="E-mail with attachment"; // get the sender's name and email address // we'll just plug them a variable to be used later $from = stripslashes($_POST['fromname'])."<".stripslashes($_POST['fromemail']).">"; // generate a random string to be used as the boundary marker $mime_boundary="==Multipart_Boundary_x".md5(mt_rand())."x"; // now we'll build the message headers $headers = "From: $from\r\n" . "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n" . "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\r\n" . " boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\""; // here, we'll start the message body. // this is the text that will be displayed // in the e-mail $message="This is an example"; // next, we'll build the invisible portion of the message body // note that we insert two dashes in front of the MIME boundary // when we use it $message = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" . "--{$mime_boundary}\n" . "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" . "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" . $message . "\n\n"; // now we'll process our uploaded files foreach($_FILES as $userfile){ // store the file information to variables for easier access $tmp_name = $userfile['tmp_name']; $type = $userfile['type']; $name = $userfile['name']; $size = $userfile['size']; // if the upload succeded, the file will exist if (file_exists($tmp_name)){ // check to make sure that it is an uploaded file and not a system file if(is_uploaded_file($tmp_name)){ // open the file for a binary read $file = fopen($tmp_name,'rb'); // read the file content into a variable $data = fread($file,filesize($tmp_name)); // close the file fclose($file); // now we encode it and split it into acceptable length lines $data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data)); } // now we'll insert a boundary to indicate we're starting the attachment // we have to specify the content type, file name, and disposition as // an attachment, then add the file content. // NOTE: we don't set another boundary to indicate that the end of the // file has been reached here. we only want one boundary between each file // we'll add the final one after the loop finishes. $message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .

"\n\n"; } } // here's our closing mime boundary that indicates the last of the message $message.="--{$mime_boundary}--\n"; // now we just send the message if (@mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) echo "Message Sent"; else echo "Failed to send";} else {?><p>Send an e-mail with an attachment:</p><form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1"> <p>From name: <input type="text" name="fromname"></p> <p>From e-mail: <input type="text" name="fromemail"></p> <p>File: <input type="file" name="file1"></p> <p>File: <input type="file" name="file2"></p> <p><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"></p></form><?php } ?></body></html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/20684-uploading-picture-files-from-a-php-form-as-an-attachment/#findComment-91701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
