Hi guys,


Ive been having a bit of an issue with php today and it has me totally stumped.

Hopefully someone on here can point out my mistake.

I have a function for sending an email with attachments. This works bar one small issue.
! is appearing in the email body and is screwing up part of the formatting


Below is the code:

PHP Code: function xmail($to, $subject, $text, $ref) {
        /* */
    $filepath = ../../images/uploads/.$ref./;
    $vmLink =;
    $vwLink =;
    if ($handle = opendir($filepath)) {
        while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
            if ($file != . && $file != ..) {
                $extArr = explode(., $file);
                $extStr = $extArr[1];
                if($extStr !=mov &&  $extStr !=wmv){
                    $files[] = $filepath.$file;
                }else{
                    $fileType = substr($file,15,4);
                    if($fileType == _vm_){
                        $link1 = http://www.domain.com/images/uploads/.$ref./.$file;
                        $vmLink = Movie link download: <a href=$link1>$file</a>  Right click Save Target as... <br />;
                    }
                    if($fileType == _vw_){
                        $link2 = http://www.domain.com/images/uploads/.$ref./.$file;
                        $vwLink = Wire-res link download: <a href=$link2>$file</a>  Right click Save Target as... <br />;
                    }
                }
            }
        }    
        $text.=<br />.$vmLink.$vwLink;
        closedir($handle);
    }
        /* */
    $b = 0;
    $fEmail = This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ;

    $mail_attached = ;
    $boundary = md5(uniqid(time(),1))._xmail;
    $add_header = MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=$boundary;
    if (count($files)>0) {
        for ($a=0;$a<count($files);$a++) {
            if ($fp = fopen($files[$a],rb)) {
                $file_name = basename($files[$a]);
                $content[$b] = fread($fp,filesize($files[$a]));
                $mail_attached .= --.$boundary.
                   .Content-Type: image/jpeg; name=$file_name\r
                   . Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
                   . Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file_name\r
                   .chunk_split(base64_encode($content[$b])). ;        
                   $b++;
                   fclose($fp);
            } else {
                echo none;
            }
        }
        $mail_attached .= --.$boundary. ;
           $mail_content = --.$boundary.
                  . Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1; format=flowed
                  . Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
                  . $text. .$mail_attached;
           $ok = mail($to,$subject,$mail_content,$add_header .FROM:.$fEmail,-fwebmaster@{$_SERVER[SERVER_NAME]});
        return true;
    }else {
        $sheaders      = MIME-Version: 1.0 ;
        $sheaders     .= Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 ;
        $sheaders     .= From: $fEmail ;
        $ok = mail($to,$subject,$text,$sheaders,-fwebmaster@{$_SERVER[SERVER_NAME]});
        return true;
    }
}
This is not all my code. More a miss-mash of years of editing.
Any takers?
