I am making a Mail Compose Page.
I want to give the user an option to attach a file. I also want to make the attachment button as an image which I already have.
I have made an image button but the image is acting like a submit button. But I want it to be an Browse button.
My form is:
<form method="post" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">
To: <span class="error">* <?php $receiverIdErr ?></span>
<select id="receiverId" name="receiverId">
<?php
$conn = connect();
$receiverIdQuery = "SELECT Email FROM Users";
$receiverIdResult = $conn->query($receiverIdQuery);
if($receiverIdResult->num_rows > 0) {
while($row = $receiverIdResult->fetch_assoc()) {
$Email = $row["Email"];
echo "<option value=\"$Email\">" . $row["Email"] . "</option>";
}
}
?>
</select>
<br /><br />
Subject: <input type="text" name="Subject" required>
<br /><br />
Body: <span class="error">* <?php $BodyErr ?></span>
<textarea name="Body" rows="10" cols="100" maxlength="300" required>
</textarea>
<br /><br />
Attachment:
<input type="image" src="paperclip4_black.png" width="20" height="20" name="myFile" id="myFile">
<br /><br />
<input type="submit" name="Send" value="Send">
</form>
And my PHP is:
<?php
$BodyErr = $receiverIdErr = "";
$Body = $Subject = $receiverId = $filePath = "";
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$Subject = test_input($_POST["Subject"]);
}
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
if (empty($_POST["Body"]))
$BodyErr = "Body is required";
else
$Body = test_input($_POST["Body"]);
}
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
if (empty($_POST["receiverId"]))
$receiverIdErr = "Choose a receiver";
else
$receiverId = test_input($_POST["receiverId"]);
}
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
if (isset($_FILES["myFile"]["name"])) {
$target_dir = "asset/attachments/" . time();
$target_file = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["myFile"]["name"]);
$uploadOk = 1;
$imageFileType = pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
if ($uploadOk == 0) {
$message = "Sorry, your file was not uploaded.<br />";
}
else {
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myFile"]["tmp_name"], $target_file)) {
$filePath = $target_file;
}
else {
$filePath = $target_file;
}
}
}
}
?>
