Adding an attachment to the emailed form.

OK - so I've search through the forum, and can't find my answer.....

Is there any way to add an attachment to the resulting email which comes from the form.
I've a situation where I need potential customers to register (using a Chrono Form), and then when the resulting email gets sent to A)me, and B)the customer too, giving them a copy of the submitted information. I would also like to add an attached PDF 'information sheet' to this email sent to my customer.

I Would of thought another option in the ToolBox under the Setup Emails tab would do it.

Thoughts anyone?
Cliff.

Hi Cliff,

You can do it with this code in the OnSubmit Before box

<?php
$form_id = $MyForm->formrow->id;
$MyUploads =& CFUploads::getInstance($form_id);
$MyUploads->attachments[] = 'path_to_file/file_name';
?>

Fantastic.

Thanks for that Bob.
All works a treat.....

Being a complete PHP thicky!
One last question, what would be the syntax for adding more than one attachment?

Would it be :

<?php
$form_id = $MyForm->formrow->id;
$MyUploads =& CFUploads::getInstance($form_id);
$MyUploads->attachments[] = 'path/file' & 'path/file';
?>

One thing I will add here - (for other newbies/thickies :-) ) is that you don't need any leading / in the file path.
For instance if your file resides at http://www.mydomain.com/images/stories/myfile.pdf
you only need:
$MyUploads->attachments[] = 'images/stories/myfile.pdf'
on this line.

Hi Cliff,

Not quite so simple

<?php
$form_id = $MyForm->formrow->id;
$MyUploads =& CFUploads::getInstance($form_id);
$MyUploads->attachments[] = 'path_1/file_1';
$MyUploads->attachments[] = 'path_2/file_2';
?>

(Where path_1 & path_2 can be the same, or different).

Excellent - Thanks Bob.
