[PHP] Create multipart email
I'm trying to attach an uploaded file to an e-mail which I receive in
Outlook. Neither the first part, nor the second part displays properly. The
header looks ok when displayed on the screen. What am I missing?
See code below.
function xmail($mailto, $from_mail, $from_name, $replyto, $subject,
$message, $origname, $tempfile, $filetype) {
$file = $tempfile;
$file_size = filesize($file);
$handle = fopen($file, "r");
$content = fread($handle, $file_size);
fclose($handle);
$content = chunk_split(base64_encode($content));
$uid = md5(uniqid(time()));
$name = basename($origname);
$header = "From: ".$from_name." <".$from_mail.">\r\n";
$header .= "Reply-To: ".$replyto."\r\n";
$header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"".$uid."\"\r\n\r\n";
$header .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\r\n";
$header .= "--".$uid."\r\n";
$header .= "Content-type:text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\r\n\r\n";
$header .= $message."\r\n\r\n";
$header .= "--".$uid."\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: ".$filetype."; name=\"".$name."\"\r\n"; // use
diff. tyoes here
$header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; file=\"".$name."\"\r\n\r\n";
$header .= $content."\r\n\r\n";
$header .= "--".$uid."--";
echo $header;
if (mail($mailto, $subject, "test", $header)) {
echo "mail send ... OK"; // or use booleans here
} else {
echo "mail send ... ERROR!";
}
}
// how to use
$my_name = "Guus";
$my_mail = "g...@activediscovery.net";
$my_replyto = "g...@activediscovery.net";
$my_subject = "This is a mail with attachment.";
$my_message = "Hallo,\r\ndo you like this script? I hope it will
help.\r\n\r\ngr. Olaf";
xmail("g...@activediscovery.net", $my_mail, $my_name, $my_replyto,
$my_subject, $my_message,$fileName, $fileTempName, $fileType);

Re: [PHP] Create multipart email
Thanks. I tried and it seems quite straightforward. However, I get the
message 'could not instantiate mail function'. Seemed to have something to
do with the 'to' address, but could not figure out what exactly. Also
searched the internet, but did not find the solution. Any suggestion?

[PHP] Encoding problem
I have a string with an n with a tilde. mb_detect_encoding says it's UTF-8. I set the http encoding to UTF-8 and also the internal encoding. However, I cannot produce proper output with echo $varwithtilde. echo $returnArray[$i]->address1.' has '.mb_detect_encoding($returnArray[$i]->address1) does NOT produce correct output in a browser or with the W3C validator, although it says the encoding of the var is UTF-8.

Re: [PHP] Encoding problem
The document IS UTF-8. The character does not seem to be. It comes from a
mySQL database. However, also the database settings are also UTF-8. The
field was entered into the database with phpMyAdmin. I tried it now local on
my test-system and remote, so the database itself does not seem to be the
problem. Could it be phpMyAdmin?

[PHP] How to set Content-type text/plain

[PHP] Convert UTF-8 to PHP defines
We use PHP defines for defining text in different languages. As far as I
know PHP files are supposed to be ASCII, not UTF-8 or something like that.
What I want to make is a conversion program that would convert a given UTF-8
file with the format
definetext1=this is a text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar text
definetext2=this is another text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar
text
into a file with the following defines
define('definetext1',chr().chr().chr()...).chr());
define('definetext2,chr().chr().chr()...).chr());
Not sure if I'm using the correct chr/ord function, but I hope the above is
clear enough to make clear what I'm looking for. Basically the output file
should be ascii and not contain any utf-8.
Any advise? The html_special_chars did not seem to work for Vietnamese text
I tried to convert, so something seems to get wrong with just reading an
array of strings and converting the strings and putting them in defines.

Re: [PHP] Convert UTF-8 to PHP defines
Thanks, but are you sure of that? I did some research a while ago and found
that officially PHP files should be ascii and not have any specific
character encoding. I believe it will work anyhow (did not try this one),
but would like to stick with the standards.

I don't use the higher range of characters often, but I do sometimes use
them for things like the graphical glyphs (½??, etc) I know I could do
those with regular text and the Wingdings font, but that's not available
on every computer, and breaks the semantic meaning behind the glyphs.

Re: [PHP] Convert UTF-8 to PHP defines
I would like if you stick to the original issue: can a PHP source file be in utf-8. It's not about the output, that is properly supported. Think it would be a good idea anyhow that PHP would support utf-8 source files as it seems utf-8 is going to be the de-facto standard for text files anyhow.
