How to add image attachment within a form
 

I have created a form with my hosts form mail utility but want to include fields that allow image attachments. How can I do this?

HTML:
Some php code to deal with the input:

Howling Wulf,

I have tried your input field and submitted a form but the resulting output gives me a local file that I can't open.

ie: E:\\My Pictures\\2006-03-23, Rumbelinas II\\Rumbelinas II 001.jpg

since this file is on my computer only how could I open an image if somebody submitted one to me and it was located on their local harddrive, not a server?

cd34,

I do not understeand where I would put your code(s) in my form

The input field is put between the

tags, and you'll need code to handle the uploaded file. cd34's post has full details you need.

But where do I put cd34's code?

Generally, I would do something like

Of course, you might want other input fields, insert records into a database, etc, but, the very basic framework you need to upload an image and process it is right there.

So do I place the php code in a seperate file? Do I point my form action to this php file? Right now here is my form:

Attach Photo 1:
Attach Photo 2:

and here is my output:


Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted by
Unknown Stranger (nobody@servage.net) on January 29th, 2007

submit: Submit
email: nobody@servage.net
realname: Unknown Stranger





if I remove the enctype="multipart/form-data"

I at least get a return of an image pointing to a local file:

picture2: C:\\Documents and Settings\\Al\\My Documents\\Invoices\\inv23.jpg
submit: Submit
email: nobody@servage.net
realname: Unknown Stranger


I want people to upload files with their forms. Is this a server issue as the form is being pointed to a page controlled by them through the form action attribute?
