I need to send a PDF as an attachment. I found the following code on this board but am having problems with opening the file. It says that the file is not decoded properly. It looks like a great piece of code and i would really liek to get it to work:
$fileatt = "./"; // Location of file on server
$fileatt_type = "application/pdf";// Type of file being sent
$fileatt_name = "document.pdf";// Name of file
$fileatt_path = $fileatt.$fileatt_name;// Name of file
// If the file exists...
if (file_exists($fileatt_path))
{
// Read the file to be attached ('rb' = read binary)
$file = fopen($fileatt_path,'rb');
$data = fread($file,file($fileatt));
fclose($file);
// Generate a boundary string
$semi_rand = md5(time());
$mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x";
$headers .= "From: my_name@some_domain.com";
// Add the headers for a file attachment
$headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" .
"Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n" .
" boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";
// Add a multipart boundary above the plain message
$message = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type: text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
$message . "\n\n";
$message .="This is an automated email sent from a php script\n";
// Base64 encode the file data
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));
// Add file attachment to the message
$message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .
" name=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
//"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
//" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
$data . "\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}--\n";
if (!mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
echo "Mail send failed!";
else
echo "Mail sent successfully to $to";
}
