[RESOLVED] MIME working but not as boundry

[phpjaco]

hello - i have made a MIME emailer that gets send with db info. when i test the boundary's alone they seem to work but as soon as i add the boundary headers i get a blank email.

here is my code

         	   // start setting up the MIME emailer for the reference person
	   // image 1 
	   $file1  = "reference/Emailer3.jpg";

   $file1size = filesize($file1);
   $file1type = filetype($file1);
   $file1name = ereg_replace('reference/','',$file1);
   $fp = fopen($file1,"r");
   $fileinc = fread($fp,$file1size);
   $fileinc = chunk_split(base64_encode($fileinc));

		   // end of 1st image

   // 2nd image
   $file2 = "reference/generic1.gif";
   $file2size = filesize($file2);
   $file2type = filetype($file2);
   $fp2 = fopen($file2,"r");
   $fileinc2 = fread($fp2,$file2size);
   $fileinc2 = chunk_split(base64_encode($fileinc2));
   // end of image 2

   //set up image attached 
   if ($_FILES['doctors']['name']) {
	 $fp3 = fopen($_FILES['somefile']['tmpname'],"r");
	 $filesize3 - filesize($_FILES['doctors']['size']);
	 $fileinc3 = fread($fp3,$file3size);
	 $fileinc3 = chunk_split(base64_encode($fileinc3));
   } else $fileinc3 = "no attatchment";

   //start setting up the MIME emailer
    $hdr = "MIME-Version:1.0\r\n";
	$hdr .= "From:[e-mail]\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Type:multipart/mixed; boundary='REF1234'\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding:7bit\r\n";

	// set up the images and give them codes

	// set up the second image
	$hdr .= "--REF1234\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Type:image/jpg;name=\"$file2_name\"\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-ID:classic2\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Disposition:attachment;\r\n";
	$hdr .= "$fileinc2\r\n";
	// set up the image that was attached
	if ($fileinc3 != "no attachment") {
       $hdr .= "--REF12341\r\n";
      $hdr .= "Content-Type:$filetype3;name=\"$_FILES[doctors][name]\"\r\n";
	   $hdr .= "Content-Disposition:attachment;filename=\"$_FILES[somefile][name]\"\n";
	   $hdr .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
	   $hdr .= "$fileinc3\r\n";
    }

    // set up the text
	$hdr .= "--REF1234\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Type:text/html\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding:7bit\r\n";

	$hdr .= "The html message "\r\n;		
  $hdr .= "--CLASSICREF-12355\r\n";
  $hdr .= "Content-Type:$file1type; name=\"$file1name\"\r\n";
   $hdr .= "Content-ID:classic1\r\n";
$hdr .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
	$hdr .= "Content-Disposition:attachment; filename=$file1name\r\n";
   $hdr .= "$fileinc\r\n";
	$hdr .= "--REF1234--\r\n";
   //

ok so its a mouth full i know. any help would be of great help. what am i doing wrong?

[phpjaco]

finally or rather hopefully figures out what was wrong (is still not working but making some headway)

the problem seems that i need certain lines with double lines and others with single lines.

i dont understand why MIME has to be so strict? is there a formula that i have to follow such as:

MIME-Version:1.0\r\n (single)
Content-type: multipart/mixed; boundary="JUSTWORKFORGODSSAKES!"\r\n\r\n

is there a specific structure i am suppose to use and where can i get this?

here is my current code as i change the r\n\ to different values i get different emails, ones that contain attachments others with different sizes etc.

please help?

  $hdr .= 'Content-Type:'. $file1type.';name="'.$file1name.'"'."";
		$hdr .="Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n\r\n";
       // $hdr .= "Content-ID: classic1\r\n\r\n";
		$hdr .= "Content-Disposition: inline\r\n";
		$hdr .= "$fileinc\r\n\r\n";
     //   $hdr .= "$fileinc\r\n";
		//$hdr .= "--$random--\r\n\r\n";

Unless you're doing this for your own edification you might as well use an existing MIME email class.

ok seems what i did wrong was there needs the be the end of the headers and the content a double new line.

such as

$hdr . = 'Content-dispoistion: attachment; filename=blah\r\n\r\n';
$hdr .= '$fileinc3;

seems to work fine, so anybody struggling with this can have a look.
