Sending email attachments in PHP Using phpmailer class !

A friend of mine asked me for such a script that will attach Jpg Images and send it to a particular email , so i started one from scratch .
The Basic idea is to upload the images to the server and then use phpmailer class to attach the files and send them .
The files can be found @Zainals
PHPMailer Class can be found @ http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/
To Learn more about file uploads visit Plus2Net

Make sure you have a directory called upload and set its chmod to 777 .

oh well , sharing is caring eyh ?

first of all we need to setup the form that will interface with the users , i have found this multi browse code @ : Plus2Net
<?php
$max_no_img=5; // Maximum number of images value to be set here
echo "<form method=post action=attach.php enctype='multipart/form-data'>";
for($i=1; $i<=$max_no_img; $i++){
echo "<tr><td>Photo $i: </td><td>
<input type=file name='images[]' class='bginput'></td></tr>";
}

?>

And now for the PHP Part , excuse the sloppness :
<?php
require("class.phpmailer.php");
//Variables Declaration
$name = "the Submitter";
$email_subject = "Images Attachment";
$Email_msg ="A visitor submitted the following :\n";
$Email_to = "you@yourSite.com"; // the one that recieves the email
$email_from = "someone@someone.net";
$dir = "uploads/$filename";
chmod("uploads",0777);
$attachments = array();
//
checkType();
//
//------Check TYPE------\\
function checkType() {
while(list($key,$value) = each($_FILES[images][type])){
strtolower($value);
if($value != "image/jpeg" AND $value != "image/pjpeg" AND $value != "") {
exit('Sorry , current format is <b>'.($value).'</b> ,only Jpeg or jpg are allowed.') ;
}
}
//
checkSize();
//
}
//-------END OF Check TYPE--------\\
//
//---CheckSizeFunction ---\\
function checkSize(){
while(list($key,$value) = each($_FILES[images][size]))
{
$maxSize = 5000000;
if(!empty($value)){
if ($value > $maxSize) {
echo"Sorry this is a very big file .. max file size is $maxSize Bytes = 5 MB";
exit();
}
else {
$result = "File size is ok !<br>";
//
}
//
}
//
}
uploadFile();
//
}
//-------END OF Check Size--------\\
//
//==============upload File Function============\\
//
function uploadFile() {
global $attachments;
while(list($key,$value) = each($_FILES[images][name]))
{
//
if(!empty($value))
{
$filename = $value;
//the Array will be used later to attach the files and then remove them from server ! array_push($attachments, $filename);
$dir = "uploads/$filename";
chmod("uploads",0777);
$success = copy($_FILES[images][tmp_name][$key], $dir);
}
//
}
//
if ($success) {
echo " Files Uploaded Successfully<BR>";
SendIt();
//
}else {
exit("Sorry the server was unable to upload the files...");
}
//
}
//
//==== PHP Mailer With Attachment Func ====\\
//
function SendIt() {
//
global $attachments,$name,$Email_to,$Email_msg,$email_subject,$email_from;
//
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();// send via SMTP
$mail->Host = "localhost"; // SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = false; // turn on/off SMTP authentication
$mail->From = $email_from;
$mail->FromName = $name;
$mail->AddAddress($Email_to);
$mail->AddReplyTo($email_from);
$mail->WordWrap = 50;// set word wrap
//now Attach all files submitted
foreach($attachments as $key => $value) { //loop the Attachments to be added ...
$mail->AddAttachment("uploads"."/".$value);
}
$mail->Body = $Email_msg."Name : ".$name."\n";
//
$mail->IsHTML(false);// send as HTML
$mail->Subject = $email_subject;
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message was not sent <p>";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
//
echo "Message has been sent";
// after mail is sent with attachments , delete the images on server ...
foreach($attachments as $key => $value) {//remove the uploaded files ..
unlink("uploads"."/".$value);
}
//
}
//
?>
