How to Send Email with Attachment in PHP?

Step 1: Create Email Form HTML

index.php

<div class="container">
	<h2>Example: Send Email with Attachment in PHP</h2>
	<div id='success_message' class='hidden'>		 
		 <h2>Your Mail Sent Successfully! Good Luck</h2>
		 <p><strong>You will be in touch soon.</strong></p>		 
	</div>	
	<form action='email_send.php' class="form-email" method="post" id="email-form" enctype='multipart/form-data'>		
		<div id="error">
		</div>
		<div class="form-group">
			<input type="input" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Your Name" name="u_name" id="u_name" />
			<span id="check-e"></span>
		</div>
		<div class="form-group">
			<input type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Your Email address" name="u_email" id="u_email" />
			<span id="check-e"></span>
		</div>		
		<div class="form-group">
			<input type="file" class="form-control" placeholder="File" name="file_attachements_doc" id="file_attachements_doc" />
		</div>
		<div class="form-group">
			<textarea cols="60" rows="5"  id="message" name="message" placeholder='Message'></textarea>
		</div>
		<hr />
		<div class="form-group">
			<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default" name="email_send" id="email_send">
			Send Email
			</button> 
		</div> 
	</form>	
</div>

Step 3: Implement Email Send with Attachment using PHPMailer

email_send.php

<?php
require 'PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
try {
	if(isset($_POST['email_send'])) {
		$sendMailObj = new PHPMailer;
		$sendMailObj->FromName   = $_POST['u_name'];
		$to_email = $_POST['u_email'];
		$sendMailObj->AddAddress($to_email);
		$sendMailObj->From       = "[email protected]";		
		$sendMailObj->Subject  = "send mail with attachment in php w3schools";
		$body = "<table>
			 <tr>
				<th colspan='2'>simple file attachment in php mail function</th>
			 </tr>
			 <tr>
				<td>User Name :</td>
				<td>".$_POST['u_name']."</td>
			 </tr>
			 <tr>
			  <td>User E-mail : </td>
			  <td>".$_POST['u_email']."</td>
			</tr>	
			<tr>
			  <td>User Message : </td>
			  <td>".$_POST['message']."</td>
			</tr>
			<table>";
		$body = preg_replace('/\\\\/','', $body);
		$sendMailObj->MsgHTML($body);		
		$sendMailObj->IsSendmail();
		$sendMailObj->AddReplyTo("[email protected]");
		$sendMailObj->AltBody    = "To view the message, please use an HTML CODE compatible email Display viewer!"; 
		$sendMailObj->WordWrap   = 80; 
		$sendMailObj->AddAttachment($_FILES['file_attachements_doc']['tmp_name'], $_FILES['file_attachements_doc']['name']);
		$sendMailObj->IsHTML(true);
		$sendMailObj->Send();
		echo 'The message has been sent.';
	}
} catch (phpmailerException $e) {
	echo $e->errorMessage();
}
?>

Step 2: Validate Email Form

form_validation.js

$('document').ready(function() { 
	(function() {
		$('form').ajaxForm({
			beforeSubmit: function() {			
				$("#email-form").validate({
					rules: {
						u_name: {
							required: true,
							minlength : 3
						},
						u_email: {
							required: true,
							email: true
						},
						file_attachements_doc: {
							required: true	
						},			
						message: {
							required: true
						}
					},
					messages: {
						u_name: {
						   required:"Please enter User name",
						   minlength: "Please enter a valid User name"
						},
						u_email:{ 
						   required: "Please enter your User email",
						   minlength: "Please enter a valid User email address",
						},
						file_attachements_doc: "Please Choose User Profiles",
						message: "Please enter message"
					},		     
				 });
				 var flag= $('#email-form').valid();
				 if(!flag){
					 return false;
				 }
			},			
			complete: function(xhr) {	
				$("#email-form").addClass("hidden");
				$("#success_message").removeClass("hidden");						
			}
		}); 	
	})();	
});
