PHP - Send Mail With Attach

I'm trying to send email with php for the first time. Trying to make it so that after a user registers he/she receives an email after submitting. I'm trying to send it from 1 comp with an email of goldie@telkomsa.net to another with an email of jgoldie@telkomsa.net (I just really want to test if it's sending email another before I get technical with the email)

Should this code work, here is part of my code with the email section in it:
Code: [Select]
<?php
// query
$sql = "INSERT INTO student (sno, sname, init, fname,
title, msname, dob, sex, lang, idno,
telh, telw, cel, fax, email, address, 
contact_flag
)



VALUES  ('', '$sname', '$init', '$fname', 
'$title', '$msname', '$dob', '$sex','$lang',
'$idno', '$telh', '$telw', '$$cell', '$fax',
'$email', '$address', '$contact')";




 mysql_query($sql) or die('Error:' . mysql_error());
  
 $sno_id = mysql_insert_id();
  


// get the cid
$cname = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['cname']); 
$getCID = "SELECT cid FROM course WHERE cname='$cname'";
$result = mysql_query($getCID);

if($result)
{
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
    $course_id = $row['cid'];

     // add the student to the course_student table
     $addCID = 'INSERT INTO course_student (cid, sno) VALUES(' . $row['cid'] . ', ' . $sno_id . ')';
     mysql_query($addCID) or die('Error:' . mysql_error());

// send email
$Name = "Da Duder"; //senders name
$email = "goldie@telkomsa.net"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "jgoldie@telkomsa.net"; //recipient
$mail_body = "The text for the mail..."; //mail body
$subject = "Subject for reviever"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields

ini_set('sendmail_from', 'goldie@telkomsa.net'); //Suggested by "Some Guy"

if (mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header)){ 
echo "mail has been sent"; //mail command 
}



}



  
 header( "refresh:5;student_man.php" );
echo 'Registration <b> successful </b> You\'ll be redirected in about 5 secs. If not, click <a href="student_man.php">here</a>.';


}
} 


?>

Email is under the "email section" comment based of what I found on google. I'm not getting any errors so I want to know if the email isn't going through because of my code or my smtp setting etc.

Can somebody tell me how to make this exact code send mail? I tested it on my website and it doesn't send any emails. The first code is the file contact_config.php

<?php
$mailto = "youremail@email.com";
$charset = "windows-1251";
$subject = "Site visitor: ".$_POST['posName'];
$content = "text/html";
$message = "Site visitor information:
<br><br> Name: ".$_POST['posName']
."<br>E-mail: ".$_POST['posEmail']
."<br>Country: ".$_POST['posCountry']
."<br>Phone: ".$_POST['posRegard']
."<br>Comments: ".$_POST['posText'];
 
$statusError = "";
$statusSuccess = "";

$errors_name = 'Please enter the Name';
$errors_mailfrom = 'Please enter the Email';
$errors_incorrect = 'The e-mail address you entered does not eppear to be valid. <br>Your e-mail address should look like yourname@domain.com';
$errors_message = 'Please enter the Message';
$errors_subject = 'Please enter the Phone';
$captcha_error = 'Wrong security code!';
$send = 'Thank you for your message';
?>
<?php
$mailto = "youremail@email.com";
$charset = "windows-1251";
$subject = "Site visitor: ".$_POST['posName'];
$content = "text/html";
$message = "Site visitor information:

."<br>Last Name: ".$_POST['posName2']
."<br>E-mail: ".$_POST['posEmail']
."<br>Telephone: ".$_POST['posRegard']
."<br>City where jobsite is located: ".$_POST['posText']
."<br>want us to e-mail you the free Homeowners Guide To Remodeling: ".$_POST['posBox'];
 
$statusError = "";
$statusSuccess = "";

$errors_name = 'Please enter the First Name';
$errors_name2 = 'Please enter the Last Name';
$errors_telephone = 'Please enter the Telephone';
$errors_city = 'Please enter the City where jobsite is located';
$errors_mailfrom = 'Please enter the Email';
$errors_incorrect = 'The e-mail address you entered does not eppear to be valid. <br>Your e-mail address should look like yourname@domain.com';
$captcha_error = 'Wrong security code!';
$send = 'Thank you for your message';
?>

The second code is contacts.php

<?php
include('kcaptcha/kcaptcha.php');
session_start();
require_once("contact_config.php");
if ($_POST['act']== "y")
{
    if(isset($_SESSION['captcha_keystring']) && $_SESSION['captcha_keystring'] ==  $_POST['keystring'])
    {
        
        if (isset($_POST['posName']) && $_POST['posName'] == "")
        {
         $statusError = "$errors_name";
        }
elseif (isset($_POST['posEmail']) && $_POST['posEmail'] == "")
        {
         $statusError = "$errors_mailfrom";
        }
        elseif(isset($_POST['posEmail']) && !preg_match("/^([a-z,._,0-9])+@([a-z,._,0-9])+(.([a-z])+)+$/", $_POST['posEmail']))
        {
         $statusError = "$errors_incorrect";

         unset($_POST['posEmail']);
        }
        
elseif (isset($_POST['posText']) && $_POST['posText'] == "")
        {
         $statusError = "$errors_message";
        }

elseif (!empty($_POST))
{   
 $headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
 $headers .= "Content-Type: $content  charset=$charset\r\n";
 $headers .= "Date: ".date("Y-m-d (H:i:s)",time())."\r\n";
 $headers .= "From: \"".$_POST['posName'];
 $headers .= "X-Mailer: My Send E-mail\r\n";

 mail("$mailto","$subject","$message","$headers");

 $_POST['posText'] = "";

 $_POST['posEmail'] = "";
 $_POST['posName'] = "";
 
 
 
 unset($name, $posText, $mailto, $subject, $posRegard, $message);

 $statusSuccess = "$send";
}

       }else{
             $statusError = "$captcha_error";
             unset($_SESSION['captcha_keystring']);
        }
}

$cat_name="Contact  $store_name manager";
?>

Now for some reason the two of these files are supposed to send me emails when customers click the submit email button on my form but, I don't get any emails. I tested it myself and no emails. Help please!

I understand you need to use the mail() command but this just wont work for me, my webserver is with godaddy, and they sent me an email saying that i need to use a relay server to send my mail, how do i set this up or anything?

this worked and stopped, no error no idea why
is this a conflict?
Code: [Select]
echo("<meta http-equiv = refresh content=0;url=".$url_success.">");
     mail($to_supplier, $subject_supplier, $message_supplier, $headers_supplier);
 $ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);

Hi guys please i need your help . i created a HTML/PHP form . The PHP form handles posting to my mail while the HTML is the front face / webpage . Anyway i created a form that has fields such as name (textbox), email(textbox) , inquiry(textarea) , state (textbox) country (dropdown list ) , how did you find us (dropdown list). However whenever i test the form all it posts to my mailbox is name , email , inquiry .  Please how do i make the other fields get recognized / how do i get the details in the other fields to be posted to my mailbox.

Hi guys, I'm sending mail from php running on a cheap webhost with the following:

Code: [Select]
$to = 'name@domain.com.au';
$header = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$header .= "From: Name <noreply@domain.info>" . "\r\n";
$subject = "Interest registered";
$message = "<!DOCTYPE HTML.. a bunch of html";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);
As you can see I've set "from" in the headers. When I receive the email however, it says from: myusername@my.cheaphost.com on behalf of Name [noreply@domain.info]

I need to get rid of the on behalf bit as it looks completely unprofessional. I just want it to say from: Name [noreply@domain.info]

Obviously this is probably something to do with the setup of the server, some of which I have no control over. I have access to another mail server which I can use to send email, so I put this at the start of my code:

Code: [Select]
ini_set('SMTP', 'mail.myotherserver.com.au');
echo ini_get('SMTP');
Which returns mail.myotherserver.com.au however, when I use the mail function, it still comes from myusername@my.cheaphost.com on behalf of Name [noreply@domain.info]

Is there something I'm missing, is the mail function not tied to the SMTP value?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to create a script that allow me to update my product quantity from external csv file. I've done successfully the first part, update db.

But now i want to send one mail with results that are not in db. I check DB from ean, and update product quantity by ean. Sometimes, the csv file have some ean that are not in db, i want to receive one e-mail with this ean's.

Here is my code:
<?php 

// Connect to MySQL 
mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error()); 
mysql_select_db("dbname") or die(mysql_error()); 

#if first row of csv file is headings set $row to 1. 
$row = 1; 
#database primary table 
$table_to_update = "table_name"; 

#get the csv file 
$handle = fopen("http://www.csvfilewebsite.com/file.csv", "r"); 

#go through the csv file and print each row with fields to the screen. 
#and import them into the database updating only the price and quantity  
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 100000, ";")) !== FALSE) { 
    $num = count($data); 
    echo "<p> $num fields in line $row: <br /></p>\n"; 
    $row++; 
    for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) { 
        if ($c = 1) { 
        $ean13 = $data[($c - 1)]; 
        echo $ean13 . " SKU Assigned <br />\n"; 
        } 
        if ($c = 3) { 
        $quantity = $data[($c - 1)]; 
        mysql_query("UPDATE $table_to_update SET quantity='$quantity' WHERE ean13='$ean13'")  
        or die(mysql_error());  
        echo $product_quantity . " Imported for row $row in product $ean13 <br />\n"; 
        } 
        // would have to add an additional  if statement for each field being updated and know the order of the fields from your csv file 
        //echo $data[$c] . "Imported <br />\n"; 
         
         
    } 
} 

fclose($handle); 
echo "<h1>Update Complete.</h1>"; 
?> 

Now, how to check csv ean's that aren't in db, and send mail with this ean's?

Hope someone can help me.

Hi guys,

I have a problem with the $header variable. I am trying to extract the value from the $name method and included with the $email method.

<?php
session_start();

    }

    $db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
    if(!$db) {

die("Unable to select database");
    }

   function clean($var){

return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var));
    }
    $name = clean($_GET['name']);
    $email = clean($_GET['email']);

   mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);
echo "Thank you for sent us your email";
  }
 }
}
?>



Something got to do with this line:

$header = 'From: $name <-f $email>' . "\r\n";

My problem is I can see in my email that the sender name has been included with (unknown sender) while the email address are display as empty address. I am really not sure why I have got the blank sender name and with the blank sender address.


Do you know what the main problem is and what I need to change it with?

Any advice would be much appreciate.

Thanks,
Mark

I am testing my PHP script with post function to send emails,but the mail is not arriving in my inbox..?What may be the problem..?

Hey my name is Brandon, im quite new to php but im improving and I really want to get into web design soon.

Well lucky for you guys I was bored so i decided to create a Contact Us page.
Just so you know MY contact us requires the user to be logged in to use it otherwise it redirects them to the login.php page and outputs a error saying "you need to be logged in to access this page", however i changed this contact us page so the user does not have to be logged in and it just requires all the fields to be entered.
One thing I diden't add was a system to check if the email has a "@" sign in it, so you can be more confident that the email is real, I don't find this that important because if the user is leaving out a "@" sign then it's likely they are just wanting to send a fake email and they will do it regardless of a check or not.

Here's The Code.
<?php
   function mysql_prep($value) {
   $magic_quotes_active = get_magic_quotes_gpc();
   $new_enough_php = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string"); // i.e PHP >= v4.3.0
   if($new_enough_php){ // PHP v4.3.0 or higher
   if ($magic_quotes_active){ $value = stripslashes($value); }
   $value = mysql_real_escape_string($value);
   }else{ //Before PHP v4.3.0
   //if magic quotes aren't already on then add slahes manually
   if(!$magic_quotes_active){ $value = addslashes($value); }
   // if magic quotes are active then the slashes already exist
   }
   return $value;
}

   function redirect_to($location = NULL){
      if($location != NULL){
      header("Location: {$location}");
      exit;
   }
}   
?>

<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
// The form has been submitted
$errors = array();

// Perform validations on the form
$required_fields = array('title', 'email', 'message');
foreach($required_fields as $fieldname){
if(!isset($_POST[$fieldname]) || empty($_POST[$fieldname])){
$errors[] = $fieldname;
}
}

$field_with_lengths = array('title' => 20, 'email' => 50);
foreach($field_with_lengths as $fieldname => $maxlength) {
if (strlen(trim($_POST[$fieldname])) > $maxlength) {
$errors[] = $fieldname; }
}

// Set the needed variables here
$email = $_POST['email'];
$title = $_POST['title'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

if (empty($errors)){
// Their are no errors in the form
                  $headers = 'From: ' . $email . "\r\n" .

<title>Contact Us</title>

<body>

<form action="contact.php" method="post">
Title of message : <input type="text" name="title" maxlength="20" value="" /><br />
Your Email : <input type="text" name="email" maxlength="50" value="" /><br />
Message : <br /><textarea name="message" rows="20" cols="80"></textarea><br /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Contact Us" /><br />
</form>

Now in order for this to work you will need to have a domain or localhost will also do fine if you have it set up with a email system, some free domains will work as long as they have a email sending capability and php enabled.
Also one thing you will want to do is change "bcooperz@hotmail.com" in that code to your email so the users of your website are sending the emails to your email

Thanks, BcooperZ.

I have a html contact us page that i need to make functionable . the page is he http://www.saintgius...om/contact.html could someone show me what I need to add to it to make it work please.

I am trying to send the data entered in to the form to myself and to the user.

At the moment I am getting the data sent to myself but cant find the way to send it to the user.

I am using this code below

<?php

mail("webmaster@edgwaretown.co.uk", $subject, $message, $from);

?>

How can I get the user to get the data by email as well?

Thanks
Gary
