I'm having a problem, hope to get some suggestios on the same. Here it goes: I've an application where I need to read an html file stored on user's pc through my PHP script and send an email to specified addresses. Problem is how to read a file on user's pc as I cann't allow them to upload any file to my server. My script will also detect any pictures attached and embed those to the message.Ummm... NO. You can't just read a file on a user's computer. There is such a thing as security for most of us. :) The user needs to upload it, ftp it, or run their own server to give you access to it. -- ---John Holmes...
