I wrote a small program in php for a website this code allows a user to upload a file and it emails it to whomever we declare as the recipient. This code works great on my windows server but when I put it on the Linux based server in fails to read the Mime types. Please help with ideas. Victor J. Bozzelle
This is the windows code that works.
