I am using the “jquery file upload plugin” in my website. The plugin give me a feature to download the file after uploaded it, and here’s the code
<td class="download">
<a href="{%=file.url%}" class="btn modal-download" title="{%=file.name%}" rel="{%=file.thumbnail_url&&'gallery'%}" download="{%=file.name%}">
<i class="icon-download"></i>
Download</a>
</td>
Now, I need to make user can send email with the downloaded url of the uploaded file, so I used a fancy contact form to send email by each uploaded file, and here’s the code
<td class="mail">
<div id="form-container">
<h1>Fancy Contact Form</h1>
<h2>Drop us a line and we will get back to you</h2>
<form id="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="fancymail/submit.php">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td width="15%"><label for="name">Name</label></td>
<td width="70%"><input type="text" class="validate[required,custom[onlyLetter]]" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$_SESSION['post']['name']?>" /></td>
<td width="15%" id="errOffset"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="email">Email</label></td>
<td><input type="text" class="validate[required,custom[email]]" name="email" id="email" value="<?=$_SESSION['post']['email']?>" /></td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="subject">Subject</label></td>
<td width="70%"><input type="text" class="validate[required,custom[onlyLetter]]" name="subject" id="subject" value="<?=$_SESSION['post']['subject']?>" /></td>
<!--<td><select name="subject" id="subject">
<option value="" selected="selected"> - Choose -</option>
<option value="Question">Question</option>
<option value="Business proposal">Business proposal</option>
<option value="Advertisement">Advertising</option>
<option value="Complaint">Complaint</option>
</select> </td>-->
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top"><label for="message">Message</label></td>
<td><textarea name="message" id="message" class="validate[required]" cols="35" rows="5"><?=$_SESSION['post']['message'] ?></textarea></td>
<!--efoula-->
<!--efoula-->
<td valign="top"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="captcha"><?=$_SESSION['n1']?> + <?=$_SESSION['n2']?> =</label></td>
<td><input type="text" class="validate[required,custom[onlyNumber]]" name="captcha" id="captcha" /></td>
<td valign="top"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top"> </td>
<td colspan="2"><input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Submit" />
<input type="reset" name="button2" id="button2" value="Reset" />
<?=$str?> <img id="loading" src="img/ajax-load.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="loading" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
<?=$success?>
</div>
</td>
Also the fancy contact form using a submit.php file to send the mail, and here’s the code
<?php
/* config start */
$emailAddress = 'email@example.com';
/* config end */
$url = "http://domain.com/files=" .$file_name ;
require "phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php";
require "../server/php/upload.class.php";
session_name("fancyform");
session_start();
foreach($_POST as $k=>$v)
{
if(ini_get('magic_quotes_gpc'))
$_POST[$k]=stripslashes($_POST[$k]);
$_POST[$k]=htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($_POST[$k]));
}
$err = array();
if(!checkLen('name'))
$err[]='The name field is too short or empty!';
if(!checkLen('email'))
$err[]='The email field is too short or empty!';
else if(!checkEmail($_POST['email']))
$err[]='Your email is not valid!';
if(!checkLen('subject'))
$err[]='You have not selected a subject!';
if(!checkLen('message'))
$err[]='The message field is too short or empty!';
if((int)$_POST['captcha'] != $_SESSION['expect'])
$err[]='The captcha code is wrong!';
if(count($err))
{
if($_POST['ajax'])
{
echo '-1';
}
else if($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])
{
$_SESSION['errStr'] = implode('<br />',$err);
$_SESSION['post']=$_POST;
header('Location: '.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
}
exit;
}
$msg=
'Name: '.$_POST['name'].'<br />
Email: '.$_POST['email'].'<br />
Download: '.$url.'<br />
Message:<br /><br />
'.nl2br($_POST['message']).'
';
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsMail();
$mail->AddReplyTo($_POST['email'], $_POST['name']);
$mail->AddAddress($emailAddress);
$mail->SetFrom($_POST['email'], $_POST['name']);
$mail->Subject = "A new ".mb_strtolower($_POST['subject'])." from ".$_POST['name']." | contact form feedback";
$mail->MsgHTML($msg);
$mail->Send();
unset($_SESSION['post']);
if($_POST['ajax'])
{
echo '1';
}
else
{
$_SESSION['sent']=1;
if($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])
header('Location: '.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
exit;
}
function checkLen($str,$len=2)
{
return isset($_POST[$str]) && mb_strlen(strip_tags($_POST[$str]),"utf-8") > $len;
}
function checkEmail($str)
{
return preg_match("/^[.A-z0-9_-+]+[@][A-z0-9_-]+([.][A-z0-9_-]+)+[A-z]{1,4}$/", $str);

Am trying now to post the download url of the uploaded file in the message of the mail, I tried to add it in ($msg= Download: ‘.$url.’), and I set the ($url = “http://domain.com/files=” .$file_name ; ), but when I received the mail I just received (Download: /file= “without the file name”).
I need to post the full url of the uploaded file in the mail. Any Help???

Answer
in submit.php $url = "http://exemple.com/files=" .$file_name ;
$file_name is undefined; you need to post this data from your form as well.
Answer Part 1: File.URL is not passed, or showed to the user
Assuming that <td class="download"> is in the same page of your form in <td class="mail">
add the value you want to use in your form with an hidden input
<input type="hidden" name="url" value="{%=file.url%}" />
in submit.php change
Download: '.$url.'<br />
for
Download: '.$_POST['url'].'<br />
your problem is that in your form you don’t post the related {%=file.url%} data.
Answer Part 2: $emailAddress = ’email@example.com’;
$emailAddress is assigned the string ’email@example.com’ overwrite the value of $emailAddress with $_POST[’email’]. (in this example i overwrite the value of $url and create a variable $usrname and assign them the $_POST equivalent )
Replace
$msg= 'Name: '.$_POST['name'].'<br /> Email: '.$_POST['email'].'<br /> Download: '.$url.'<br /> Message:<br /><br /> '.nl2br($_POST['message']).' ';
With this
$usrname = $_POST['name']; $emailAddress = $_POST['email']; $url = $_POST['url']; $msg= 'Name: '.$usrname.'<br /> Email: '.$emailAddress.'<br /> Download: '.$url.'<br /> Message:<br /><br /> '.nl2br($_POST['message']).' ';
