Trouble sending email attachements

[scott56hannah]

I have just created a new PHP mail script to include the ability to send attachments from my website. But the attachements are not sent as files...they are just garbled text....see below the current PHP script and a sample of some of the output that is received...

 

Any help appreciated..

 

<?php

 

$FirstName = $_POST['FirstName']; #assign value

$LastName = $_POST['LastName']; #assign value

$Address = $_POST['Address']; #assign value

$Country = $_POST['Country']; #assign value

$Mobile = $_POST['Mobile']; #assign value

$Phone = $_POST['Phone']; #assign value

$Email = $_POST['Email']; #assign value

$Message = $_POST['Message']; #assign value

$to = "sales@test.com"; #recipient

$re = "Contact Us Form Feedback from ".$Email; #subject

 

#create the comments that will be sent as text in the message later on

$Comments = "First Name  :".$FirstName."\n";

$Comments .= "Last Name    :".$LastName."\n";

$Comments .= "Address      :".$Address."\n";

$Comments .= "Country      :".$Country."\n";

$Comments .= "Mobile      :".$Mobile."\n";

$Comments .= "Phone        :".$Phone."\n";

$Comments .= "Email        :".$Email."\n";

$Comments .= "Message      :".$Message."\n";

 

$Attachment = $_FILES['ClientFile'];

$FilePath = $_FILES['ClientFile']['tmp_name'];

$FileName = $_FILES['ClientFile']['name'];

$FileSize = $_FILES['ClientFile']['size'];

$FileType = $_FILES['ClientFile']['type'];

$FileError = $_FILES['ClientFile']['error'];

 

#open, read, then close the file

$fp = fopen( $FilePath, "rb");

$File = fread( $fp, $FileSize);

  fclose ( $fp );

 

#create a boundary string

$num = md5(time());

$str = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$num}x";

 

#encode the data for safe transit

$File = chunk_split(base64_encode($File));

 

#define the header

$hdr = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";

$hdr .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; ";

$hdr .= "boundary=\"($str}\"\r\n";

$hdr .= "From: admin@test.com.au \r\n";

 

#define message

$msg = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format\r\n\n";

$msg .= "--{$str}\r\n";

$msg .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\r\n";

$msg .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\r\n";

$msg .= "$Comments\r\n\n";

$msg .= "--{$str}\r\n";

 

#define the non-text attachment

$msg .= "Content-Type: {$FileType}; ";

$msg .= "name=\"{$FileName}\"\r\n";

$msg .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; ";

$msg .= "filename=\"{$FileName}\"\r\n";

$msg .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";

$msg .= "$File\r\n\n";

$msg .= "--{$str}";

 

#send mail now that all is prepared

$ok = mail($to,$re,$msg,$hdr);

if ($ok)

{

echo "OK";

#Will need to show a Thankyou page

}

else

echo "Not OK";

 

?>

 

And now some of the output that is received....

 

 

This is a multi-part message in MIME format
