Howto: Attach a file with mail from form

Hi!

I'm trying to get my users to attach a local file to the mail they sending me from my page.

<B>My form code is:</B>

form method="POST" action="mail-annonse.asp" onsubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)" name="FrontPage_Form1" language="JavaScript"

input type="text" name="FromName" size="20"
input type="text" name="FromAddress" size="20"

input type="file" name="AddAttachment" size="20"

input type="submit" value="Send" name="B1"
input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"

<b>My asp code is:</b>

Session("FromName") = Request("FromName")
Session("FromAddress") = Request("FromAddress")

Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")

Mailer.FromName = Session("FromName")
Mailer.FromAddress = Session("FromAddress")
Mailer.RemoteHost = "smtpgw.activeisp.com"
Mailer.AddRecipient "joachim@obur.no", "joachim@obur.no" Mailer.Subject = "Annonsering på obur.no"

for each whatever in request.form
If instr(whatever,"mail-")=0 then
Mailer.BodyText = whatever & "=" & vbcrlf
Mailer.BodyText = request.form(whatever) & vbcrlf & vbcrlf
end if
next

if Mailer.SendMail then
Response.Write "The e-mail is sendt..."
else
Response.Write "The mail was not sendt. The error was " & Mailer.Response end if

Session.Abandon

<b>How can I get it to work? Can I use something like:</b>
Session("AddAttachment") = Request("AddAttachment")
<b>and</b>
Mailer.AddAttachment = Session("AddAttachment")
<b>or</b>
Mailer.Attachments.Add = Session("AddAttachment")

<b>Please help...</b>

Visit this thread for two different asp solutions. Both are FREE

You'll have to get the file to the server first, then attach it to the email. Once the email is sent, the file can be deleted. You won't be able to attach the file from the browser.

This was what I was looking for....

I'm trying it now, and I think it works great!

Again, thanx!
