[Resolved] email attaching isn't working

[anakadote]

i have a form that you can add an attachment to to email. the email is getting sent and received, but it contains no attachment.

here's the form code that has the attach button:

<tr>
<td colspan="3"><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2097152">
<span class="burgundybold">Submit your resume (optional)</span><br><br>
<input name="upload" type="file" size="30" class="text">
</td></tr>

here's the attachment part:

if(!empty($POST['upload'])){
$file = $POST['upload'];
} else {
$file = NULL;
$read = NULL;
}

$mailto = "[e-mail]";
//$locations; 

$subject = "Application submittal";

$mime_boundary = md5(uniqid(time()));


if(!empty($_POST['upload'])){


	$mimeType = mime_content_type($file);
	$fp=fopen($file, "r");
	$read=fread($fp, filesize($file));
	$read=base64_encode($read);
	$read=chunk_split($read);

}

$headers_ = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"" . $mime_boundary . "\"\r\n";
$headers .= "From: [email][e-mail][/email] \r\n";

$body  = "--".$mime_boundary."\r\n";
$body .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\r\n";
$body .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary\r\n";
$body .= "\r\n";

$body .= "<b><font size =\"5\">Application from web site.</font></b>" . 
		  "<br><br>" . "<b>Career interests: </b>" . rtrim($careers) . 

...

$body .= "--".$mime_boundary."\r\n";
$body .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64";
$body .= "Content-disposition:attachment;filename=". $file;
$body .= "Content-Type: " . $mimeType . "; name=" . $file;
$body .= "\r\n";
$body .= $read;
$body .= "\r\n";
$body .= "--".$mime_boundary."--\r\n";

i added line breaks toward the end ($body .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
$body .= "Content-disposition:attachment;filename=". $file."\r\n";
$body .= "Content-Type: " . $mimeType . "; name=" . $file."\r\n"😉

now the email contains an attachment but it's 0KB and named "mime_attachment"

any ideas?

I have the same problem with a 0kb attachment. Anybody?

include your code.

I don't suppose those wacky underscores you have in there have anything to do with it. They're supposed to be spaces.
