I am using Andrew Rileys Formmail. I am trying to have an attachment as part of a form.

Code:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="../aupload/formmail.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">
<input type="hidden" name="file_name" value="userfile">
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file">
<input type="submit" value="OK">
</form>


I see the attachment is sent. Text files come through just fine. When I try to open a .jpg, all I get is an "X". If I send a .pdf and try to open it after its sent I get a message by the reader that says "file is damaged". How can I make sure the files attached are readable from the recipients(me) side?

Is there some setting I need to change on the server?

Thnx

lestat,

What you describe seems to be a bug in the script. We'll review it and give you more information ASAP.

It is probably because this FormMail script cannot handle attachments other than text. Try a different script.

iNaNimAtE: Are you positive about this :?: Would you have any suggestions :?: I really dislike "revamping" existing systems, but if I need to I will. :(

Please send your HTML form code to support@aprelium.com . We need it to test the script.

I am not positive about it; mainly because I do not know the script. But I am positive that some scripts don't handle attachments. So it may be that your script is one of them...
