Hi,
I am trying to write a script that attach's a file from the senders local drive and emails it to and address.
It kind of works but the file is either garbled or empty! and some files dont even attach or send the email.
The idea is that a visitor could send a log file from there system via email to our support centre via the web.
Here is the part of the script that should deal with the mail and the attachment.
you can try the code at this will email the same address that you put into the form.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Kind Regards, Paul Benn
