How to attach HTML file to email using content taken from DB in PHP?

How to send mail through PHP with an HTML file attachment? → The content of the HTML file (code) is located in a row in the database. Is there an easy way or free script for this? I do not want to store the file locally, I need to read it from the database and send it immediately as an attachment (not included in the body).

If you find it difficult to get the headers correctly, you can always use something like PHP Mailer instead of reinventing the wheel.

I like the pear.

<? include('Mail.php'); include('Mail/mime.php'); $text = 'Text version of email'; $html = '<html><body>HTML version of email</body></html>'; $file = './files/example.zip'; $crlf = "rn"; $hdrs = array( 'From' => ' someone@domain.pl ', 'To' => ' someone@domain.pl ', 'Subject' => 'Test mime message' ); $mime = new Mail_mime($crlf); $mime->setTXTBody($text); $mime->setHTMLBody($html); $mime->addAttachment($file,'application/octet-stream'); $body = $mime->get(); $hdrs = $mime->headers($hdrs); $mail =& Mail::factory('mail', $params); $mail->send(' mail@domain.pl ', $hdrs, $body); ?>

You can follow these instructions when sending email attachments. You just need to tweak your code to read a row from the database, and not read the contents of the file.
