Hi I could really use your help. This code works great, however if I dont attach any image or attach less than 3 images ( given my contact form has 3 file type input) the form doesn't gets submitted. What logic can I use to achieve that? so the code works even when no images are chosen or less than 3 or for that matter any amount? Thank you
