Re: strpos

I always get strpos wrong. So typically in this case I would do something like: list($file,$ext) = explode('.',$yourimage); if ($ext != 'jpg' or $ext != 'jpeg') { error... } (More properly we should make sure jpg or jpeg are at the very end of the filename i.e. you probably don't like myfile.jpegold.gif so you would need: list($ext,$file) = explode('.',strrev($yourimage)); $ext = strrev($ext); $file = strrev($file); if ($ext != 'jpg .....etc. ) If $yourimage really is a reference to an image e.g. an uploaded image, you might like to run getimagesize() on it to see if it really, really is a jpeg and not just called .jpg or .jpeg see (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.getimagesize.php).
