The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Php form to send email with 2 attachments..

Asked by Rev22only in PHP and Databases

hello

i am trying to submit a form and send email with 2 attachments..

I am attaching the code I am trying.
I am getting files to attach from the following code.. where file1 and file2 are the file input tags

$attachments[]=$_POST['file1']; // absolute file path here
$attachments[]=$_POST['file2'];

The code runs fine if the files are placed in root of the drive.. I think the file path is not posted
$attachments[0] holds only the file name but not the path..

How to make this work..
thanks..
