Please Helo With Class PhpMailer

PHP_In

Hi,

I am using this contact form in my website:
http://tutorialzine.com/2009/09/fancy-contact-form/

But I need to add a field to attachment.

I am trying to do it:
Demo.php:

<tr>
          <td><label for='uploaded_file'>Select A File To Upload:</label></td>
          <td><input type="file" name="file" id="file"></td>
        </tr>

Submit.php

$mail->AddAttachment($_FILES['file']['name']);

Please can somebody help me? I really need it =)

Thanks in advance ;p

You might want to try working with a basic file upload test script before trying to use the feature in conjunction with 3rd party library (such as PHPMailer). See the manual page [man]features.file-upload[/man] for an introduction to this feature.

Some things you're missing and/or doing wrong, for example, are:

Checking to see if $FILES['file'] even exists.
Checking to see if $_FILES['file']['error'] indicates the upload was successful.
Checking to see if you even want to process the file upload... unless you really not care what kind of file you get. For example, do you care if I upload really_nasty_virus.exe?
Using the path to the actual file (which isn't in the 'name' key - it's in 'tmp_name').

(Note: Since the file will be giving some temporary name, you'll want to specify its real name (e.g. before it was uploaded) using the $name argument for the AddAttachment() method.)

Thanks bradgrafelman, I am looking about how to upload files,

I just have more a question,

I am trying to do as follow:
$attachment = $POST['file'];
OR
$attachment = $POST['file']['name'];
But in both cases the '$attachment' variable is getting a null value =S

PS: I am unable to recover the 'file' value but I am able to recover another values, for example:
It is working fine - $name = $POST['name']; $email = $POST['email'];

Thanks again =)

You're getting a null value because the uploaded file information is not stored in the $POST array. Instead it's stored in the $FILES array (which you used in your submit.php code that you posted).
