Question

I hope you will help me with my question, because i really need it for my site.
How do i add the possibility to attach a file to a online emailer I've written in PHP? :)
Here is the code that i would like to add it to:
<?php
session_start();
if( isset($_POST['submit']))
{
if( $_SESSION['security_code'] == $_POST['security_code'] && !empty($_SESSION['security_code'] ) )
{
$to=$_POST["to"];
$from=$_POST["from"];
$name=$_POST["name"];
$subject=$_POST["subject"];
$message=$_POST["message"];
$message=$message."\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n";
$head="From: ".$from."\r\n".'Reply-To: '.$From."\r\n";
$her=$head.' < '.$from.' >';
$techomag=mail($to, $subject, $message, $her);
echo "Your Message Has been send successfully...:)..";
unset($_SESSION['security_code']);
echo( 'Click here to send another email' );
}
else
{
echo 'Sorry, you have provided an invalid captcha security code :(...';
echo( 'Click here to Go back and try once more' );
}
}
else
{
?>
<?php
?>
<div style="height:10px; clear:both"></div>
<form action="index.php" method="post">
<table border="1"><tbody>
<tr><td>To Email :</td><td><input name="to" type="text" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>From Email :</td><td><input name="from" type="text" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>From Name :</td><td><input name="name" type="text" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Subject :</td><td><input name="subject" type="text" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Message :</td><td><textarea cols="30" rows="10" name="message"></textarea></td></tr>
<tr><td><img src="CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=100&height=40&characters=5" /><br />
<label for="security_code">Security Code: </label><input id="security_code" name="security_code" type="text" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Email!" /></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</form>
<?php
}
?>

Answer 1

Well for complex emailing with PHP checkout the PHPMailer class.
It is much easier to send complex emails (e.g. with attachment) with the functions in PHPMailer.

<?php
$filename = "form.txt"; //attach filename
$to = "abc#mail.ru"; //To
$from = "def#gmail.com"; //From
$subject = "Test"; //Subj
$message = "Текстовое сообщение"; //Message
$boundary = "---"; //Delimitter
/* Headers */
$headers = "From: $from\nReply-To: $from\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"$boundary\"";
$body = "--$boundary\n";
/* Text message */
$body .= "Content-type: text/html; charset='utf-8'\n";
$body .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printablenn";
$body .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename==?utf-8?B?".base64_encode($filename)."?=\n\n";
$body .= $message."\n";
$body .= "--$boundary\n";
$file = fopen($filename, "r"); //Открываем файл
$text = fread($file, filesize($filename)); //Считываем весь файл
fclose($file); //Закрываем файл
/* ADD attach */
$body .= "Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name==?utf-8?B?".base64_encode($filename)."?=\n";
$body .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
$body .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename==?utf-8?B?".base64_encode($filename)."?=\n\n";
$body .= chunk_split(base64_encode($text))."\n";
$body .= "--".$boundary ."--\n";
mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers); //SEND
?>
