Emailing file attachment with PHP and PEAR

[slypig]

Can anyone steer me in the right direction here. I've created php forms that allow the user to send an attachment before, but now the server I'm on uses PEAR for email sending.

Here is my coding for the send...

require_once("Mail.php");
require_once("Mail/mime.php");

$attach_name = $_FILES["attach"]["name"];
$attach_type = $_FILES["attach"]["type"];
$attach_size = ($_FILES["attach"]["size"] / 1024);
$attach_temp = $_FILES["attach"]["tmp_name"];

if (is_uploaded_file($attach)) {
$fp = fopen($attach, "rb");
$data = fread($fp, filesize($attach));
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));
fclose($fp);
}

$uploaddir = "upload/";
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["attach"]["tmp_name"], $uploaddir .
$_FILES["attach"]["name"])) {
print "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.";
} else {
print "There were some errors!";
}

$file = "(don't know what to put here!! needs to be the attachment!!)

$mime = new Mail_mime();

$mime->setTXTBody($text);
$mime->addAttachment($file,"application/octet-stream");

$body = $mime->get();
$headers = $mime->headers(array("From" => "from email", "Subject" => "subject"));

$params["host"] = 'smtp server';
$params["port"] = "25";
$params["auth"] = true;
$params["username"] = 'username';
$params["password"] = "password";

$mail =& Mail::factory("smtp", $params);
if(!$mail->send("email address",$headers,$body)) {
echo "Could not send email";
}
?>


I have it working to the point where I can upload the file to the server. I don't really WANT to upload the file to the server, I want to email it. I just added the uploading part to make sure I was getting the file info correct.

My main problem is, prior to running into PEAR, I was able to add header and message information regarding MIME content, etc. But as far as I can tell I can't do that with PEAR...

Don't know if I've explained this well....but any help would be appreciated! Thanks

I'm not sure whether I got your question right, but if you're asking about the uploaded file handling and the attachment of this file, then there is a rather simple solution:

It appears I was just trying to make things harder for myself.

I've gotten this to work, but not without move_uploaded_file(). Removing this and just using $mime->addAttachment($_FILES["attach"]["tmp_name"]); resulted in the tmp file being sent as the attachment.

I ended up using this ...

$mime->addAttachment($uploaddir . $_FILES["attach"]["name"]);


But overall, you pointed me in the right direction, and I thank you!
