  • Answer:

    You can either do it the way http://www.geekology.co.za/blog/2009/06/sending-emails-with-attachments-using-php-mail-function/ tutorial describes, or you can use one of the http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail-mime.php modules to send an email with an attachment the way http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail-mime.example.php tutorial describes. Using PEAR is probably a better option as it's easier to do. The only caveat is that PEAR isn't available on all hosts.

for what reason no use http://phpmailer.worxware.com/? example for attach: function mandaMail ($nombredest, $maildest, $asunto, $cuerpo) { require_once("mailer/class.phpmailer.php"); $mail = new PHPMailer(true); $mail->IsSMTP(); try { $mail->Host = "xxxx"; $mail->Port = 25; // smtp server $mail->SMTPAuth = true; $mail->Username = "xxxx"; // smtp username $mail->Password = "xxxx"; // smtp pass $mail->AddReplyTo("xxxx", "xxxx"); // email & name $mail->SetFrom("xxxx", "xxxx"); // similar to up value $mail->AddAddress($maildest, $nombredest); $mail->Subject = $asunto; $mail->MsgHTML(file_get_contents($cuerpo)); $mail->AddAttachment("xxxx", "xxxx"); // attachments directory, attachment name (ie: dir/blah.jpg, blah.jpg) $mail->Send(); } catch (phpmailerException $e) { echo $e->errorMessage(); } catch (Exception $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } }

I'm using this : function attachfile($file, $type = "application/octetstream") { if(!($fd = fopen($file, "r"))) { $this->errstr = "Error opening $file for reading."; return 0; } $_buf = fread($fd, filesize($file)); fclose($fd); $fname = $file; for($x = strlen($file); $x > 0; $x--) if($file[$x] == "/") $fname = substr($file, $x, strlen($file) - $x); // Convert to base64 becuase mail attachments are not binary safe. $_buf = chunk_split(base64_encode($_buf)); $this->attachments[$file] = "\n--" . $this->boundary . "\n"; $this->attachments[$file] .= "Content-Type: $type; name=\"$fname\"\n"; $this->attachments[$file] .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n"; $this->attachments[$file] .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; " . "filename=\"$fname\"\n\n"; $this->attachments[$file] .= $_buf; return 1; }
