#31757 [Com]: $_FILES['userfile']['name'] returns entire directory with IE

ID: 31757 Comment by: fsolinas at it dot tiscali dot com Reported By: andrew at eiknet dot com Status: Open Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions Operating System: RH Linux 8 PHP Version: 4CVS-2005-01-30 (stable) New Comment: Reproduced after upgrading to 4.3.11-dev. I'm using php4-STABLE-200501210930 due to bug #31398. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-30 07:27:45] none at null dot xxx I don't think this is a bug in PHP, it's a questionable design feature of IE. PHP is just returning the unmodified filename supplied by the client as part of the upload process. If you wish to obtain just the filename you should probably use basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-30 01:01:27] andrew at eiknet dot com Description: ------------ While uploading a file using a script the $_FILES['userfile']['name'] variable returns the entire upload path, but only when using IE. The issue does not show up using Firefox. Using IE: $_FILES['userfile']['name'] -> C:\Documents and Settings\RARankin\Desktop\groupe_alliance_2004_gb.jpg Using Firefox: $_FILES['userfile']['name'] -> groupe_alliance_2004_gb.jpg Didnt happen before updating to 4.3.10+, I'm using a dev version due to compilation errors w/ GD in *.10. Error showed itself w/ phpBB's attachment modification. Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31757&edit=1
