[php] Send File Attachment from Form Using phpMailer and PHP

Hey guys the code below worked perfectly fine for me. Just replace the setFrom and addAddress with your preference and that's it.

<?php
/**
 * PHPMailer simple file upload and send example.
 */
//Import the PHPMailer class into the global namespace
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
$msg = '';
if (array_key_exists('userfile', $_FILES)) {
    // First handle the upload
    // Don't trust provided filename - same goes for MIME types
    // See http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php#114004 for more thorough upload validation
    $uploadfile = tempnam(sys_get_temp_dir(), hash('sha256', $_FILES['userfile']['name']));
    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) 
    {
        // Upload handled successfully
        // Now create a message

        require 'vendor/autoload.php';
        $mail = new PHPMailer;
        $mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'CV from Web site');
        $mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'CV');
        $mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer file sender';
        $mail->Body = 'My message body';

        $filename = $_FILES["userfile"]["name"]; // add this line of code to auto pick the file name
        //$mail->addAttachment($uploadfile, 'My uploaded file'); use the one below instead

        $mail->addAttachment($uploadfile, $filename);
        if (!$mail->send()) 
        {
            $msg .= "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
        } 
        else 
        {
            $msg .= "Message sent!";
        }
    } 
        else 
        {
            $msg .= 'Failed to move file to ' . $uploadfile;
        }
}
?>
