Send an email with attachment

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I want to make a form to send by email, but I want the user upload a file and then send the email. I have the script to upload and the script to send a email with attachment, but how can I make first the upload of the file and then set that file to be sended with the data collected from the form?

 

Can anyone help me, I'm starting to learn PHP and it's a bit difficult to me, because I'm used to ASP.

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Eduardo Ribeiro

You are doing so many things to get teh Answer of 2+2. Its Really Too simple

I use this Class for sending Attachment

Its So simple and easy

$ext["attach"] = "atch.txt,test.wav";
$mail = new mail("admin@localhost", "Mail Subject", "Mail Body", $ext)

You can also use in this way

$mail = new mail("admin@localhost", "Mail Subject","Mail Body");
$test->atch("atch.txt,test.wav");//Set Attachment

And Its So Easy
