I have a form on example.com/contact-us.php
that looks like this (simplified):
<form method="post" action="process.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="uploaded_file" id="uploaded_file" />
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="10000000" />
</form>
In my process.php
file, I have the following code utilizing PHPMailer()
to send an email:
require("phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->From = me@example.com;
$mail->FromName = My name;
$mail->AddAddress(me@example.com,"John Doe");
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "Contact Form Submitted";
$mail->Body = "This is the body of the message.";
The email sends the body correctly, but without the Attachment of uploaded_file
.
MY QUESTION
I need the file uploaded_file
from the form to be attached to the email, and sent. I do NOT care about saving the file after the process.php
script sends it in an email.
I understand that I need to add AddAttachment();
somewhere (I'm assuming under the Body
line) for the attachment to be sent. But...
- What do I put at the top of the
process.php
file to pull in the fileuploaded_file
? Like something using$_FILES['uploaded_file']
to pull in the file from the contact-us.php page? - What goes inside of
AddAttachment();
for the file to be attached and sent along with the email and where does this code need to go?
Please help and provide code!Thanks!
Hey guys the code below worked perfectly fine for me. Just replace the setFrom and addAddress with your preference and that's it.
