how to attech a file with e-mail

Hai rahulcbr,
Create a file call mail_attachment.php
and paste the following code

-------------------------------
<?php
function mail_attachment ($from , $to, $subject, $message, $attachment){
    $fileatt = $attachment; // Path to the file
    $fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type
    $start= strrpos($attachment, '/') == -1 ? strrpos($attachment, '//') : strrpos($attachment, '/')+1;
    $fileatt_name = substr($attachment, $start, strlen($attachment)); // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment

    $email_from = $from; // Who the email is from
    $email_subject = $subject; // The Subject of the email
    $email_txt = $message; // Message that the email has in it

    $email_to = $to; // Who the email is to

    $headers = "From: ".$email_from;

    $file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
    $data = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
    fclose($file);
    $msg_txt="\n\nMail created using free code from 4word systems : http://4wordsystems.com";

    $semi_rand = md5(time());
    $mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x";

    $headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" .
            "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n" .
            " boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";

    $email_txt .= $msg_txt;

    $email_message .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" .
                "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
                "Content-Type:text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
               "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
    $email_txt . "\n\n";

    $data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));

    $email_message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
                  "Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .
                  " name=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
                  //"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
                  //" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
                  "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
                 $data . "\n\n" .
                  "--{$mime_boundary}--\n";


    $ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);

    if($ok) {
    } else {
        die("Sorry but the email could not be sent. Please go back and try again!");
    }
}
