How can multiple file uploads be implemented in PHPMail for sending attachments via email?
To implement multiple file uploads in PHPMail for sending attachments via email, you can use the PHP `$_FILES` superglobal to handle the uploaded files. You can iterate through the uploaded files and add them as attachments to the PHPMailer instance before sending the email.
// Loop through each uploaded file
foreach($_FILES['files']['tmp_name'] as $key => $tmp_name){
$file_name = $_FILES['files']['name'][$key];
$file_size = $_FILES['files']['size'][$key];
$file_tmp = $_FILES['files']['tmp_name'][$key];
$file_type = $_FILES['files']['type'][$key];
// Add the file as an attachment to the PHPMailer instance
$mail->addAttachment($file_tmp, $file_name);
}
// Send the email
if(!$mail->send()){
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent';
}
