Send exported jpeg from swf as an attachment

[Jasmina]

I have jpeg created from swf file and I want to send image as an attachment. This code works when the image $img is saved in folder images, but I want to attach it "on fly" without saving. What do I have to change to realize that ?


<?
// .... $img is created image from swf


$imagePathName="images/".$_POST['imageName'].".jpeg";

// I don't want to save it, I just want to use $img if that is possible
imagejpeg($img,$imagePathName , 90);




$fileatt = $imagePathName; // Path to the file
$fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type
$fileatt_name = "Picture.jpg"; // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment

$email_from = $_POST['user_email']; // Who the email is from
$email_subject = "Web Contact Form"; // The Subject of the email
$email_message = ""; // Message that the email has in it

$email_to = "name@domain.com"; // Who the email is too

$headers = "From: ".$email_from;



$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}\"";

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


$file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
$data = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
fclose($file);


$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($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";
unset($data);
unset($file);
unset($fileatt);
unset($fileatt_type);
unset($fileatt_name);



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

if($ok) {
echo "<font face=verdana size=2>The file was successfully sent!</font>";
} else {
die("Sorry but the email could not be sent. Please go back and try again!");
}


?>




Can someone help me?
Thanks

Howdy and Welcome... :)

If you want to send an attachment via mail() function, it requires a physical file location that PHP script can refer to... In other words, you have to save it somewhere so that PHP can reference the file...
