What is Attachment in forums?

I want to know what is attachment in digital forums while posting a new thread. plz tell me about it in details.

 

When you make a thread with attachment see at the top of text box there a option is attach a file.

 

it is for uploading files. If you have any kind of doc, excel sheet or other non-executable files then you can upload it for other users.

 

It entails uploading a file from your local computer and attaching it to your post, just the same way you attach files to email messages.

 

If you want to post any document file or relevant image with your thread then you use this option in all most all the forums.

 

While making a thread you can add up images like an email attachment for reports, references

 

Thank you to all for telling about attachment in forums. Now i have known about it. I have no confusion about it.

 

Attachment is just uploading a file which is non-exe file. Member have to download that file to see what is inside that file. But image file can be seen without downloading.
