I have PHP that takes input from a form and sends it as an email. However if no file is attached then i get the following errors:
How do I deal with that?
Errors:
Notice: Undefined index: uploaded_file in F:\CL2\sendemail.php on line 20
Notice: Undefined index: uploaded_file in F:\CL2\sendemail.php on line 28
Notice: Undefined variable: errors in F:\CL2\sendemail.php on line 53
Notice: Undefined index: uploaded_file in F:\CL2\sendemail.php on line 59
{"type":"success","message":"Thank you for contact us. As early as possible we will contact you.","attachement":"Couldn't attach the uploaded File to the Email."}
My HTML Code:
<form id="main-contact-form" class="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="sendemail.php">
<div class="col-sm-5 col-sm-offset-1">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Name *</label>
<input type="text" name="name" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email *</label>
<input type="email" name="email" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Phone</label>
<input type="number" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Company Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-5">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Subject *</label>
<input type="text" name="subject" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Message *</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" required="required" class="form-control" rows="8" style="height:125px"></textarea>
<label for='uploaded_file' style="margin-top:10px">Select A Photo To Upload:</label>
<input type="file" name="uploaded_file">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg" required="required">Submit Message</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
My Jquery Code:
// Contact form
var form = $('#main-contact-form');
form.submit(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
var form_status = $('<div class="form_status"></div>');
$.ajax({
url: $(this).attr('action'),
beforeSend: function(){
form.prepend( form_status.html('<p><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i> Email is sending...</p>').fadeIn() )
},
data: $(this).serialize();
}).done(function(data){
form_status.html('<p class="text-success">' + data.message + '</p>').delay(3000).fadeOut();
});
});
My PHP Code:
<?php
// ini_set('display_errors', 'On');
// error_reporting(E_ALL);

'message' =>'Couldn\'t send the Email at this Time. Something went wrong',
'attachement' =>'Couldn\'t attach the uploaded File to the Email.'
);

if($size_of_uploaded_file > $max_allowed_file_size )
