Well, that could be a backup plan. My supervisor doesn't want this to be a "two click" thing. He wants this to be able to take the data from one form and send the data + upload the file. I have already tried to do this, and it seems to work fine, but my supervisor doesn't like it.

I will try to my previous plan to work using javascript.

Ok- how about this...
Use formmail or a similar form to collect the data on the first page, then insert a "continue" button. Set the redirect page to the form that points to the upload script.

Good luck!

Well, my plan now is to use PHP to upload a file to a directory on the server, then have the front page extensions e-mail the form results.

I want to be able to do this without having the customer upload, then fill out the form. I want this to be able to act like a regular form, and have the ability to select a file. This file will be uploaded to the folder on my server, and the results (with all the fields) sent to my e-mail address.

I know that didn't make too much since, but hopefully you will understand.

If you think that this will work (or won't) please let me know.

100 MB? For that, you really should be setting up an anonymous FTP server and a /incoming/ directory... You can use a form to let people notify you when they upload a file, or you can probably set it to upload a file directly to the server. I'm not sure about the exact syntax for the form, but I know it can be done...

I didn't think that FP extensions would work, but I had to try.

As for the cgiemail, will it handle attachments? I couldn't find anything in there that said that it could handle them.

I have tried several cgi scripts, all of which failed to work.

I have even tried some C++ and some Visual Basic, but the farthest I got with those was 10MB attachments.

I need something that can handle file attachments of about 100MB.

If you know of one that will work, I would be very grateful if you would tell me about it.

If you're using the FP email function not sure if it can be done.

Why not rewrite the form to use cgiemail or something similar?

Sorry, Zimbabwe, I can't answer your question. Maybe someone else here can.
