Online collaboration depends on a communication mechanism for your web applications. This amounts to a situation where a user can break out of the relative URL scenario within most web applications, where navigation is controlled to designated places, or to stay within the same domain via relative URLs. Our favourite means of achieving this is via email. We do this a lot, but looking through our PHP mail means of doing this, we’d never written a generic “HTML Attachment” email. The web uses HTML web pages, so what could be a more useful generic communication tool than this. Today, we’ve upped the ante on genericity we hope by boiling our requirement, as far as an “HTML Attachment Email” goes, as it needing … To email address … mandatory Body HTML becomes an email attachment … mandatory (for today’s generic PHP communication tool) … we can make up any body text needed Subject line … optional (as we can make one up otherwise) CC email address … optional BCC email address … optional … and considering this list above, realized that data (that we make the rules up for) … containing < and > can be considered “Body HTML” data … and that, consecutively data … containing @ can be considered, respectively, To then CC then BCC email addresses … and so that leaves other data … containing none of < nor > nor @ can be considered as a user defined Subject line What is the implication of being able to tie down the data this way? It means we can remove the names of parent form fields as a thing that matters. We just … $phpcont=””; $to=””; $cc=””; $bcc=””; $subj=””; $getpostfound=false; foreach( $_POST as $name=>$val ) { $getpostfound=true; if (strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “<“) !== false &&^ strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “>”) !== false) { $phpcont=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); $pbits=explode(‘”data:’, $phpcont); for ($ii=1; $ii<sizeof($pbits); $ii++) { $phpcont=str_replace(explode(‘”‘,$pbits[$ii])[0],str_replace(” “,”+”,explode(‘”‘,$pbits[$ii])[0]),$phpcont); } } else if (strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “@”) !== false) { if ($to == “”) { $to=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); } else if ($cc == “”) { $cc=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); } else { $bcc=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); } } else { $subj=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); } } foreach( $_GET as $name=>$val ) { $getpostfound=true; if (strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “<“) !== false && strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “>”) !== false) { $phpcont=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val)))); $pbits=explode(‘”data:’, $phpcont); for ($ii=1; $ii<sizeof($pbits); $ii++) { $phpcont=str_replace(explode(‘”‘,$pbits[$ii])[0],str_replace(” “,”+”,explode(‘”‘,$pbits[$ii])[0]),$phpcont); } } else if (strpos(str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,strtolower(urldecode($val))))), “@”) !== false) { if ($to == “”) { $to=str_replace(“+”,” “,str_replace(“&lt;”,”<“,str_replace(“&gt;”,”>”,urldecode($val))));
