mail() with attachments

[pshankland]

I have got the following VERY basic script:

[code]<?php
$to = 'somone@somewhere.com';
$subject = 'Some Subject';
$message = 'Some Message';

mail($to, $subject, $message, '', '-fsomeoneelse@domain.com');
?>[/code]

This works but I need to be able to send a *.sql file as an attachment and although there is lots of help on the net I am a bit stuck. Anyone give me a simple addon to this script for me to mail the attachment? I have looked and can't use the phpmailer class as don't have the ability edit the php.ini file on my hosted server.

Also, I would like to have the current date within the subject, how can I do this?

Thanks.
