File attachment to user confirmation mail / Upload button

    Hello,

    first of all, this tool is really awesome!

    Neverthless, I've got three questions:

    1. The user has to upload a file and I want to have it attached to my mail (which works fine) but not to the confirmation mail for the user. Is this possible? (I send a copy of the data the user submitted to him. I would prefer if there is no link to his attached file as well in the mail).
    2. I neither like the rounded shape of the upload button nor the text ;-) Is it possible to have a squared button? Moreoever the text says "Select Files". Is it possible to change that? The rest of the form is not in english. I know that this is possible by not using the advanced uploader but since I want to limit the size of the upload file I don't want to change that.
    3. I can choose if the user should get a message or be redirected to another page after submitting the form. Is it possible to display a message and be redirected after, let's say, 10 seconds?

    Thanks for your help!!

    Qu 3 - you can create your own "confirmation page" (can be any HTML page you wish to use) and then use the "meta-refresh" within that page to direct elsewhere. See below for information on META EQUIV. (this is an easy method to refresh a page, or redirect to another page after an elapsed time. I'm sure you could do the same with Javascript or even PHP).

    Anyway here's info on the meta refresh method.

    Q1 are you saying there's a link to the file as well as being an attachment or do you mean you don't want the user to receive the email with the very file he has just submitted. Not sure that's an option - the auto reply simply sends back to the user what he sent, including the file attachment.

    Q2 - found one reference to changing the select files button style, but not necessarily the text or language.

    I would have expected to find this in the languages.php file, but apparently not.

    Something like:

    $lang['file_select'] = 'your-label-here';

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Now I've got everything the way I want except that the button text is still english and says "Select Files". Would be great if someone knows how to change that. I can't find "Select Files" anywhere in the files :-/
