How To Send Mail With Attachment Using Js?

Can anybody tell me how to send mail with an attachment using JavaScript?

Solution 1:

You have two options to send email:

1. Use server side implementation to send email, access it in Javascript via XMLHttpRequest

2. Open the local email client from JavaScript and user can send email with pre-populated data.

   var link = "mailto:target@example.com"; 
    // In addition to this you can add subject or body as parameter . // For e.g. // "mailto:target@example.com?subject=test subject&body=my text"window.location.href = link;
   

Solution 2:

JavaScript is a client-side language. It is not concerned with (indeed, cannot) send e-mail, with or without an attachment. You'll need something server-side for that.

JavaScript can merely invoke the server-side script to send the e-mail, by requesting it, say, over AJAX, but it is not JavaScript which sends the e-mail.

This is akin to people mistakenly writing things like "I have some JavaScript which is getting some info from my database." It is not - it is requesting a server-side script which is getting the info from the database.

Solution 3:

With pure JavaScript, you can't send e-mails from the client. Remember, JavaScript is executed at the client (i. e. the user's browser).

Solution 4:

You can't send an email directly from Javascript. You could use it to do an AJAX call to send mail from whatever server side language you are using.
