Hi,

I followed the examples provided with the eForm snippet but my files don’t seem to be attaching. This is the response I’m getting in my inbox where I’m directing the form submit results:

Name: blah
Email address: [email protected]
CV attachment: s
Comments: blah blah blah

This is my chunk for the form:

<p><span style="color:#900;">[+validationmessage+]</span></p>
<form method="post" action="[~[*id*]~]">
    <input type="hidden" name="formid" value="feedbackForm" />
    <p><label accesskey="n" for="Name">Your Name:</label><br />
    <input type="text" name="Name" maxlength="60" eform="Your Name::1" /></p>

    <p><label accesskey="e" for="email">Your Email Address:</label><br />
    <input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="40" eform="Your Email Address:email:1" /></p>
    
    <p><label accesskey="c" for="comments">Comments:</label><br />
    <textarea cols="40" rows="10" name="comments" eform="Comments:html:1"></textarea></p>

     <p><label for="attachment">CV attachment</label>
        <input class="field" type="file" name="attachment" eform="Attachment:file:0:Only upload of text documents are supported:#LIST pdf,txt,doc " /></p>
     <p>
        Please enter the anti spam code below:<br />
     <img src="[+verimageurl+]" alt="verification code" border="1"/>
     </p>
     <p>
      <label accesskey="c" for="vericode">code</label>
      <input type="text" name="vericode" size="20" />
      </p>

<input type="submit" name="frmGo" value="Send CV" />
</form>

This is my chunk for the report:

<p>Below is the contents of a contact form sent from the Brisbane Recruitment website:</p>
<table>
<tr><td>Name:</td><td>[+Name+]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Email address:</td><td>[+email+]</td></tr>
<tr><td>CV attachment:</td><td>[+attachment+]</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td>Comments:</td><td>[+comments+]</td></tr>

</table>

Below is the content for the thankyou message:

<h3>Thank you for your CV submission</h3>
<p>Brisbane Recruitment will be in contact with you very shortly.</p>
<p>Below is a copy of your message:</p>
<table>
<tr><td><p class="MsoBodyText">Your name:</p></td><td><p class="MsoBodyText">[+Name+]</p></td></tr>
<tr><td><p class="MsoBodyText">Your email address:</p></td><td><p class="MsoBodyText">[+email+]</p></td></tr>
<tr><td><p class="MsoBodyText">the file you attached:</p></td><td><p class="MsoBodyText">[+attachment+]</p></td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><p class="MsoBodyText">Your comments:</p></td><td><p class="MsoBodyText">[+comments+]</p></td></tr>
</table>

Below is my snippet call:

<html><body><p>[!eForm? &formid=`feedbackForm` &to=`[email protected]` &tpl=`eFeedbackForm` &report=`eFeedbackReport` &thankyou=`eFeedbackThanks` &vericode=`1` &subject=`Web site feedback`!]</p></body></html>

Any help would be awesome!

Cheers,

Sarah

Try adding:
```
enctype="multipart/form-data"
```
into
```
<form method="post" action="[~[*id*]~]">
```
. Like:
```
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="[~[*id*]~]">
```
