Feedback Form Attchment Question

[jonno946]

Hi there,

I currently have a feedback form allowing users to email me from a web based form using PHP. However, i would like to allow people to attach files to the email, so when i recieve the email, it contains both the text information submitted on the form, and the file attachment attached.

I was wondering if anyone could advise me to do this? I include my current php code. Hope it helps.

Any advice on a solution would be great.

==== Mail.php ====

<?php

// Check to see if user has completed ALL boxes

if($company_name && $address && $city && $state && $zip_code && $phone_number && $email_address && $update) {

// Check that the email is valid by checking for '@' symbol

if (strrpos($email_address,'@') > 0) {

// Send The eMail to us

mail(",[e-mail]", "Website Contact", "
Company Name: $company_name
Address: $address
City: $city
State: $state
Zip Code: $zip_code
Phone Number: $phone_number
Email Address: $email_address
Remote Address (Incase of Abuse): $REMOTE_ADDR

$update

To reply to this email, simply click reply using your email agent.", "From: $email_address");

// Print
print "Thankyou for your update! Your email has been sent, and we will be in contact with you in the near future!<br><br><br><br>";

} else {
print "Email Invalid.";
}

} else {
print "Please complete all boxes.";
}

?>

==== End Mail.php ====

PHPmailer is an (the) awesome email transfer class for PHP.
See http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/

See also this simple example, taken from the site's main page.
Take good note of the $mail->AddAttachment feature, that will do just what you want, I think.

<?
require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new phpmailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();                                   // send via SMTP
$mail->Host     = "smtp1.site.com;smtp2.site.com"; // SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;     // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "jswan";  // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "secret"; // SMTP password

$mail->From     = "[e-mail]";
$mail->FromName = "Mailer";
$mail->AddAddress("[e-mail]","Josh Adams"); 
$mail->AddAddress("[e-mail]");               // optional name
$mail->AddReplyTo("[e-mail]","Information");

$mail->WordWrap = 50;                              // set word wrap
$mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz");      // attachment
$mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); 
$mail->IsHTML(true);                               // send as HTML

$mail->Subject  =  "Here is the subject";
$mail->Body     =  "This is the <b>HTML body</b>";
$mail->AltBody  =  "This is the text-only body";

if(!$mail->Send())
{
   echo "Message was not sent <p>";
   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
   exit;
}

echo "Message has been sent";
?>

Hope this helps
