PHP Form With Attachments Tutorial

[RR456]

I'm trying to find recent tutorials for building a contact form using PHP that also has the ability to include attached files like docx or pdf when the user submits the contact form.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Are you utilizing a database or do you want one that attaches to an email?

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the reply. No, I'm not utilizing a database in that the attachment would be dropped in, I assume, a folder on our server for us to get access to in some manner. Hope that makes sense.

The PHPMailer library on GitHub can securely process mail with attachments and a good deal more.
