why??  you can't just rip the file off of the users machine as then you'd
be able to get at any file you knew the location of.  making use of the
file input type includes the file when the user submits the form.  then
have to parse this input, extract the file and all the other variables and
then send the email.

a good link on how to do this in pure script is at:

if you can install components on the server then software artisans' fileup
is one of the better ones.

all the job sites i've used (and that was quite a lot just a few months
ago) allow you to upload your cv which is then attached to any application
you make from the site.

i haven't seen any way of doing it the way you want to.
