I would like in fact to make more precise my previous post. I would like in fact to restrict the file extension (and therefore the user possibility). My user should be able only to upload files with extension JPEG, BMP, GIF. How can i set those parameter ?
You can't control that without using a client-side technology like Java or ActiveX. It may also be possible to use Javascript in the onsubmit event on the form to check the file extension. If I may make a suggestion... don't over-complicate it. Trust your users to do the right thing on their side, help them by providing instructions, and validate what they've sent you in case they don't read them. -Stut
