getimagesize

little problem with getimagesize function. I have a form upload and want the images resized only if greater than 1024, if greater than 1024 then i want it to resized, the problem is i do not know if getimagesize is getting the form data: <FORM action="" encType="multipart/form-data" method="post" name="sendform"> <INPUT name=MAX_FILE_SIZE type=hidden value=10000000> <INPUT maxLength=128 name=image type=file ACCEPT="image/jpeg, image/jpg"> <INPUT name=Submit type=submit value=Submit> <INPUT name=Reset type=reset value=Reset> // some if's ....... $imagewidth = getimagesize($form_data); if($imagewidth[0] >= "1024") { $img_width = "1024"; } else { $img_width = "*"; } // rest of the script to resize....... so an i doing it the proper way of getting $form_data? cheers, - Sebastian
