input type=submit - beginner's question

I'm trying to use such code:

Code: Select all

<form enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="uploaded_file" accept="application/msword, application/rtf" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="Submit">
</form>

Where does the uploaded file go?
How to send it as an attachment to the specified e-mail address?

Please help! Need it urgently

you need more in your form tag

look here...

see if that helps.

Hi, PixelLuv. I haven't found the script on that page... I need a simple, tiny script! And I can't find one

http://www.celerondude.com/php-uploader-v6 is a pre built flexible PHP Uploader sscript that is free. And from what I know you can set accounts on it, give different people different levels of access etc. At the very least you could open its files up and learn by example.

sorry man.

im not so sure it is tiny. ive not done it in years... ala classic asp, but at the time it was a pain.

perhaps this should be in a different forum depending on what middle tier language your server uses?

Thank you moojoo and PixelLuv, yes you are right probably. I had to ask in php forum as I'm using php.
And I need something really small and simple without all those special features and advanced flexibility.
I expect it to be about 10 lines big - 10 lines maximum

PHP Uploaders are generally pretty small to do what you need to do, but I am no PHP Guru.. Wish I could help more.

the guy who isn't mmw and is in the focus - me

i wanna look. but i am forbidden.

you draw very well btw

ups, don't know why... try to copy the address into the address bar of the browser (it works)
thank you.

Hello, ukgeoff, yes i've realized it isn't all that simple
The HTML part is clear for me. But I can't find a proper php handler - most of things are tooooo complecated. The scripts advertised on the net are full functionality software rather than small bits of code for very particular tasks.
I need a script to pick up an MsWord doc and send it to e-mail as an attachment. This is to let people upload there CVs on our job site and get them sent to our work e-mails.
Unfortunately i'm unable to write such code myself...
Keep looking

i purchased one when i had to do that. worked a charm.

Yes, we are buying some web software too but this problem came up very urgently. Doesn't matter we decided to leave it for now.

Have you seen the pictures? Can show you more (in fact I'm looking to share my joy with someone). Far away, in Vilnius, i've got to touch very cream of NY jazz (if i can put it this way )

i did get to look. awsome! how did you get to chill with those guys?

i have had the pleasure of spending time in NY and doing little more than checking out the jazz scene.

ive traveled a bit and i must say, the type of music you and i like is alive and well in NY. it amazing. here we get a few decent act passing through. there its every night. more music than you can manage.

email me and we can free this thread of side banter

Sure, it's something to talk about!
Let me get all my form troubles solved... and i'll write you.

Hi mmdesign,

What do you mean by 'you can't find a proper php handler'?

The only way you can send a file via email is as an attachment. Therefore you have to build a multipart email structure.

The code I pointed you to has everything you need. Just strip out what you don't want, incorporate it into your html page and jobs done or is the problem that you don't know which bits to take out and which bits to leave?
