Zend_Mail : Excel attachment

[Thomas VEQUAUD]

Hi there,

I try to attach an Excel file to a mail via Zend_Mail... That works...
Document attached. But once downloaded : cannot open the document because of
a corrupted content. So, I suppose the issue comes from the PHP function
file_get_contents.

// Attachment
$infos = $form->attachment->getFileInfo();
$attachment = new
Zend_Mime_Part(file_get_contents($form->attachment->getFileName()));
$attachment->type = $form->attachment->getType();
$attachment->disposition = Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE;
$attachment->encoding = Zend_Mime::ENCODING_8BIT;
$attachment->filename = $infos['attachment']['name'];

// Send Email
$mail = new Zend_Mail(APPLICATION_ENCODING);
$mail->addAttachment($attachment);

I'm sure somebody met that problem before...

So, there was 2 mistakes... First, the type is not the MIME type of your
uploaded document : it's always an 'application/octet-stream', even for
plain text (because of \r\n, etc.). By consequence, you've to change the
encoding too : base 64.

$attachment = new
Zend_Mime_Part(file_get_contents($form->attachment->getFileName()));
$attachment->type = 'application/octet-stream';
$attachment->disposition = Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE;
$attachment->encoding = Zend_Mime::ENCODING_BASE64;
$attachment->filename = $infos['attachment']['name'];
