Hi, I have two php pages that upload files to a mysql db. I do not know how
to change this code to accept more than plain text files. Specifically, I
would like to accept .doc and .xls files. Can anyone help? Thanks...Will
This is my upload form....
<body>
<h3> Upload a New File</h3>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="item_upload.php" method=post>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">
Upload this file: <input name="userfile" type="file">
<input type="submit" value="Send File">
</form>
</body>
</html>
This, I use to handle the uploaded file...
<?
if ($userfile=="none")
{
echo "Problem: no file uploaded";
exit;
}
if ($userfile_size==0)
{
echo "Problem: uploaded file is zero length";
exit;
}
if (!is_uploaded_file($userfile))
{
echo "Problem: possibles file upload attack";
exit;
}
$upfile = "../uploads/".$userfile_name;
if ( !copy($userfile, $upfile))
{
echo "Problem: Could not move file into directory";
exit;
}
echo "File uploaded successfully<br><br>";
$fp = fopen($upfile, "r");
$contents = fread ($fp, filesize ($upfile));
fclose ($fp);
$contents = strip_tags($contents);
$fp = fopen($upfile, "w");
fwrite($fp, $contents);
fclose($fp);
echo "preview of uploaded file contents:<br><hr>";
echo $contents;
echo "<br><hr>";
?>
