Adding File Attachment to Create note link in business card form

[vantagejuan]

Ok. So, I've been customizing the business card form because i want only minimal information to be put in when the contact is submitted. there is a "create note" link in the form and I would find this functionality to be very useful if there was a way to add an attachment to the note.

So, far, I've found that the 'getFormBody' function in modules/notes/noteformbase.php is what calls this form on the click of the link. I've added the html to add the upload file field to the form, but I can't get it to actually save the attachment. Can someone help me figure out how to get the form to actually save the attachment when clicking the save button? I would appreciate it very much.

Here's the code from noteformbase.php: the additions begin about 32 lines down

function getFormBody($prefix, $mod='',$formname='', $size='30',$script=true){
if(!ACLController::checkAccess('Notes', 'edit', true)){
		return '';
	}
	global $mod_strings;
$temp_strings = $mod_strings;
if(!empty($mod)){
	global $current_language;
	$mod_strings = return_module_language($current_language, $mod);
}
			global $app_strings;
			global $app_list_strings;

		$lbl_required_symbol = $app_strings['LBL_REQUIRED_SYMBOL'];
		$lbl_note_subject = $mod_strings['LBL_NOTE_SUBJECT'];
		$lbl_note_description = $mod_strings['LBL_NOTE'];
		$default_parent_type= $app_list_strings['record_type_default_key'];

			$form = <<<EOF
				<input type="hidden" name="${prefix}record" value="">
				<input type="hidden" name="${prefix}parent_type" value="${default_parent_type}">
<p>				<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
