PHPMailer With AJAX Does Not Send Attachments

Question

I'm using PHPMailer on a simple contact form, and to submit that form I'm using jQuery AJAX. The contact form works as expected along with AJAX, and now that everything is working I'm tackling this issue.

File attachments aren't included in the email sent by PHPMailer when submitting the form via AJAX.

How can I also send attachments when submitting the form with jQuery AJAX?

You need to set headers of mail. Some of header examples are below:-

$header = "From: ".$from_name." <".$from_mail.">\r\n";
    $header .= "Reply-To: ".$replyto."\r\n";
    $header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"".$uid."\"\r\n\r\n";
    $header .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\r\n";
    $header .= "--".$uid."\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-type:text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\r\n\r\n";
    $header .= $message."\r\n\r\n";
    $header .= "--".$uid."\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name=\"".$filename."\"\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$filename."\"\r\n\r\n";
    $header .= $content."\r\n\r\n";
    $header .= "--".$uid."--";
