It would be a great thing to manage mail attachments through PHP classes. So here is the class code. This post gives you the code for mail attachemnts as well as an example script on ow to use it. Just download and enjoy!

<?
class mailer{
var $email_to;
var $email_subject;
var $headers;
var $mime_boundary;
var $email_message;

//sets up variables and mail email
function mailer($email_to,$email_subject,$email_message,$headers){
$this->email_to=$email_to;
$this->email_subject=$email_subject;
$this->headers = $headers;
$semi_rand = md5(time());
$this->mime_boundary = “==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x”;
$this->headers .= “\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n” .
“Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n” .
” boundary=\”{$this->mime_boundary}\”";
$this->email_message .= “This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n” .
“–{$this->mime_boundary}\n” .
“Content-Type:text/html; charset=\”iso-8859-1\”\n” .
“Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n” .
$email_message . “\n\n”;
}

//adds attachment
function attach($fileatt_type,$fileatt_name,$fileatt_content){
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($fileatt_content));
$this->email_message .= “–{$this->mime_boundary}\n” .
“Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n” .
” name=\”{$fileatt_name}\”\n” .
“Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n” .
$data . “\n\n” .
“–{$this->mime_boundary}\n”;
unset($data);
unset($file);
unset($fileatt);
unset($fileatt_type);
unset($fileatt_name);
}

//send email
function send(){
return mail($this->email_to, $this->email_subject, $this->email_message, $this->headers);
}

//extra functions to make life easier

//send email with imap
function imap_send(){
return imap_mail($this->email_to, $this->email_subject, $this->email_message, $this->headers);
}

//read file and add as attachment
function file($file){
$o=fopen($file,”rb”);
$content=fread($o,filesize($file));
fclose($o);
$name=basename($file);
$type=”application/octet-stream”;
$this->attach($type,$name,$content);
}

//read directory and add files as attachments
function dir($dir){
$o=opendir($dir);
while(($file=readdir($o)) !==false){
if($file != “.” && $file != “..”){
if(is_dir($dir.”/”.$file)){
$this->dir($dir.”/”.$file);
}else{
$this->file($dir.”/”.$file);
}}}}

}
?>

An example code on how to use it follows

<?
include(”mailer.class.php”);
$mailer=new mailer(”webmaster@localhost”,”does it work”,”yes”,”From: webmaster@localhost”);
$mailer->file(”example.php”);
$mailer->attach(”text/plain”,”see.txt”,”tada 2 attachments”);
$test=$mailer->send();
echo $test?”sent”:”error”;
?>
