I need to know how I can take a file (.txt or else) from a client PC and upload it into some directory on server where I have the site that needs than to send an e-mail with this file as attachment (but this is not a problem anymore). This has to be done by a PHP function. Can anybody help me, please?

Send attachments with PHP Mail()?
(16 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I have a simple form on a web page. I want the person who fills in the form to be able to upload a file. Then I want the message and attached file to be e-mailed to me. I have been playing with lots of bits of code for days now, but haven't found anything that works for me.
My current code:
<?php
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){
$flags = 'style="display:none;"';
$message = $_POST['message'];
$email="me#me.com";
$to = "someone#somewhere.com";
$subject = "test Message with attachment";
$attachment = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($_FILES['file']['uploaded_file'])));
$filename = $_FILES['file']['uploaded_file'];
$boundary =md5(date('r', time()));
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: ".$email."\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: ".$email."\r\n" .
$mail_sent = #mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
//if the message is sent successfully print "Mail sent". Otherwise print "Mail failed"
echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent" : "Mail failed";
exit();
} // end of what happens if form submitted
else{
?>

The message comes through OK, but there is no attachment. I have tried lots of different methods, including a couple found on here, like [Simple PHP form: Attachment to email (code golf), but cannot get what I want.
I also tried something I found at: [http://form.guide/email-form/php-email-form-attachment.html][1], but that involved installing PEAR. I did try that but then discovered it had overwritten my home page, so I had to uninstall it, as it seems to be too complicated and overkill for what I need.
I feel sure that I must be somewhere near getting this to work, but cannot see what is wrong.
I suggest you to use PHPMailer library.
You may want to use send_file_upload example.
Also, lot of examples is listed here.
So, your code may be rewritten like this:
<?php
if( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST' )
{
$flags = 'style="display:none;"';
$message = $_POST['message'];
$email="me#me.com";
$to = "someone#somewhere.com";
$subject = "test Message with attachment";
$uploadfile = tempnam(sys_get_temp_dir(), sha1($_FILES['file']['name']));
$msg = '';
if( move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile) )
{
// Upload handled successfully
// Now create a message
// This should be somewhere in your include_path
require '../PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->setFrom($email);
$mail->addAddress($to);
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Body = $message;
// Attach the uploaded file
$mail->addAttachment($uploadfile, 'My uploaded file');
if (!$mail->send()) {
$msg .= "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
$msg .= "Message sent!";
}
} else
{
$msg .= 'Failed to move file to ' . $uploadfile;
}
exit( $msg );
} else { ?>
<!-- end of form processing-->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

</tr>
<tr>

<?php }?>
p.s. Using such libraries will give you lot more flexible and working code.
Just because they form all required headers and provides simple OOP interface.

My problem is I need to set the success alert in the same html page.
But here my success alert is opening in PHP page.
How to add this php code in same html page?
To view the message or alert on the same page, you can just copy your php code in the same HTML page. Do it as below
your_html.php
<form method="post" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<td>First Name </td>
<td><input type="TextBox" name="First_Name" class="applytext" required></td>

Dont forget to remove the action attribute of <form>. Also the extension of your HTML page should be changed to php.
set a condition on success
create a session
$_SESSION['action] = "Your Massage";
and when page refresh.
there would be a place where you want to echo that massage.
I have the following code, ideally, it is expected that the user shall upload a file(image/video) when submitting the form, but it is not compulsory though.
<?php
$to = "someone#example.com";
$fromEmail = $_POST['fieldFormEmail'];
$fromName = $_POST['fieldFormName'];
$subject = $_POST['fieldSubject'];
$message = $_POST['fieldDescription'];

$tmpName = $_FILES['attachment']['tmp_name'];
$fileType = $_FILES['attachment']['type'];
$fileName = $_FILES['attachment']['name'];
/* Start of headers */
$headers = "From: $fromName";
if (file($tmpName)) {
/* Reading file ('rb' = read binary) */
$file = fopen($tmpName,'rb');
$data = fread($file,filesize($tmpName));
fclose($file);
/* a boundary string */
$randomVal = md5(time());

The problem that i am facing is,
it runs on page load, and
if file has not been uploaded, it throws a warning.
I tried putting the file upload part under "if filename exists" condition, but then the email does not send the attachment
Please help.
This file name is Contact.php
it runs on page load
enclose mail send feature in
if(isset($_POST['Submit']) && ($_POST['Submit']) == 'Send' )
{
/* process only when submit button whose name='Submit'
and value= 'Send' is pressed
entire PHP code */
}
if file has not been uploaded, it throws a warning.
check before attaching it in PHP
if((empty($_POST['attachment'])) || (empty($_FILES['attachment']))){
//file is not attached, show error
}else{
//file is attached, process it and send via mail
}
I am trying to add a new field in the contact us form field, but I am stumped on how to properly do this. I simply need to have the uploaded file be sent as an attachment of the contact us email. Thanks in advance Rahul

We presently have a form that when submitted the user responses are emailed to us as an attached excel file. We also have another form that allows the user to upload multiple files of various types which are then emailed to us as attachments. However we have been unable to combine the two into one form, so that we can receive an email with both types of attachments. We are beginners...
Below is:
1. The existing form which attaches the single excel content
2. the existing mailer.php
3. the existing form which uploads multiple files

What you're asking for is quite a significant change here, so I'll try my best to make it simple for you guys. Your excel content form makes use of an email wrapper (mailer.php) which converts attaching files to an email to just $myEmail->addFile("file name","mimetype","file content"). The upload form on the other hand is not using this wrapper and is instead generating a whole email seperately. So you'll want to focus on moving your uploads to utilising the wrapper; that's moving content from the uploads form to the excel form.
So, our focus is with the following block from the uploads file:
for($i=0;$i<count($_FILES["attachment"]["name"]);$i++)
{
if($_FILES["attachment"]["name"][$i] != "")
{
$file_name = $_FILES["attachment"]["name"][$i];
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($_FILES["attachment"]["tmp_name"][$i])));
$headers .= "--".$strSid."\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: application/octet-stream;\n\tname=\"" . $file_name . "\"\n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
$headers .= "Content-Disposition: attachment;\n\tfilename=\"" . $file_name . "\"\n\n";
$headers .= $data."\n\n"; //The base64 encoded message
}
Which is saying 'for each file upload, write it into the email we're building up'. Instead of this, we want to do 'for each file upload, attach it using the wrapper'. That would be done like so:
for($i=0;$i<count($_FILES["attachment"]["name"]);$i++){
if($_FILES["attachment"]["name"][$i] != "")
{
$file_name = $_FILES["attachment"]["name"][$i];
$data = file_get_contents($_FILES["attachment"]["tmp_name"][$i]);
$myEmail->addFile($file_name,"application/octet-stream",$data);
}
}
For this to work, the above code would go in your excel form right after the existing $myEmail->addFile call. In other words, right after you attach your excel sheet, look for any attachments, then add those to the email too:
$myEmail->addFile("{$company}-{$taxyear}.xls", "application/vnd.ms-excel", $FILE_CONTENTS);
// Drop it right here.
$myEmail->send();
So far so good - at this point, your excel form can handle multiple uploads, but it can't create them. To fix that, you'll then want to start transferring the html that allows your users to upload files over to your excel form. That's this part:
<tr>
<td width="120" valign="middle" class="indextextlight">Upload Files:</td>
<td colspan="2"><p>
<input name="attachment[]" type="file" multiple="" class="indextextlight" size="42">
<br />
<span class="centgothicmini"> note - hold the Ctrl key to select multiple files</span><br />
<span class="centgothicmini"> note - max total size of all files can not exceed 10mb</span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
A simple thing you could do is dump that wherever it fits on your excel form and as a result your excel form should then accept multiple uploads. From there, all that is required is transferring any other fields you want from upload to excel :)
