Send Mail with Multiple Attachment - Need Help

[deepaks85]

Dear All,

I want to send some data through a form with Multiple attachment in an HTML Format. I have tried it but it is not working for me. I am able to send data without attachment but with the code for attachment, I am not able to send anything. I get blank email.

Can you please help me on this?

Here is the html form:

Hi.

For complex mails like that, I would recommend that you abandon the mail() function altogether and start using one of the PHP mailer classes.

They are usually a lot easier to work with if you intend to do anything more than send text mails.

I would try either PHPMailer or Swift Mailer. See how that works out.
