<h2>Examples using phpmailer</h2>

<h3>1. Advanced Example</h3>

<p>

This demonstrates sending out multiple email messages with binary attachments

from a MySQL database with multipart/alternative support.<p>

<tr>

<pre>

require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new phpmailer();

$mail->From = "list@example.com";

$mail->FromName = "List manager";

$mail->Host = "smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com";

$mail->Mailer = "smtp";

@MYSQL_CONNECT("localhost","root","password");

@mysql_select_db("my_company");

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result))

{

// HTML body

$body = "Hello <font size=\"4\">" . $row["full_name"] . "</font>, <p>";

$body .= "<i>Your</i> personal photograph to this message.<p>";

$body .= "Sincerely, <br>";

$body .= "phpmailer List manager";

// Plain text body (for mail clients that cannot read HTML)

$text_body = "Hello " . $row["full_name"] . ", \n\n";

$text_body .= "Your personal photograph to this message.\n\n";

$text_body .= "Sincerely, \n";

$text_body .= "phpmailer List manager";

$mail->Body = $body;

$mail->AltBody = $text_body;

$mail->AddAddress($row["email"], $row["full_name"]);

$mail->AddStringAttachment($row["photo"], "YourPhoto.jpg");

if(!$mail->Send())

echo "There has been a mail error sending to " . $row["email"] . "<br>";

// Clear all addresses and attachments for next loop

$mail->ClearAddresses();

$mail->ClearAttachments();

}

</pre>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

<h3>2. Extending phpmailer</h3>

<p>

Extending classes with inheritance is one of the most

powerful features of object-oriented

programming. It allows you to make changes to the

original class for your

own personal use without hacking the original

classes. Plus, it is very

easy to do. I've provided an example:

<p>

Here's a class that extends the phpmailer class and sets the defaults

for the particular site:<br>

PHP include file: <b>mail.inc.php</b>

<p>

<tr>

<pre>

require("class.phpmailer.php");

class my_phpmailer extends phpmailer {

// Set default variables for all new objects

var $From = "from@example.com";

var $FromName = "Mailer";

var $Host = "smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com";

var $Mailer = "smtp"; // Alternative to IsSMTP()

var $WordWrap = 75;

// Replace the default error_handler

function error_handler($msg) {

print("My Site Error");

print("Description:");

printf("%s", $msg);

exit;

}

// Create an additional function

function do_something($something) {

// Place your new code here

}

</td>

</tr>

</table>

<br>

Now here's a normal PHP page in the site, which will have all the defaults set

above:<br>

Normal PHP file: <b>mail_test.php</b>

<p>

<tr>

<pre>

require("mail.inc.php");

// Instantiate your new class

$mail = new my_phpmailer;

// Now you only need to add the necessary stuff

$mail->AddAddress("josh@example.com", "Josh Adams");

$mail->Subject = "Here is the subject";

$mail->Body = "This is the message body";

$mail->AddAttachment("c:/temp/11-10-00.zip", "new_name.zip"); // optional name

if(!$mail->Send())

{

echo "There was an error sending the message";

exit;

}

echo "Message was sent successfully";

</pre>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</p>

</body>
