Re: verify file types when uploading to server...

Oops... Hope this helps others, here is what I did: // This is your form... <form name="img1" method="post" action="done.php" target="box" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="img1" size="25"> <br><br> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="save"> &nbsp;&nbsp; <input type="reset" name="reset" value="reset"> </form> // this is the script to upload the file // Note: if you want to only upload certain file types... change the eregi('.jpg$ sting to whatever your file extension should be // Also the directory in question needs permissions set to 755 for it to work. <?php if ($img1_name != "" && eregi('.jpg$', $img1_name)) { @copy("$img1", "/path/to/directory/$img1_name") or die ("Could not upload file, please try again after making sure the file is less than 2mb in size and the file name correct"); } else { die("No file selected for upload, or the file was not the correct type. Please only upload .jpg files."); } ?> "Michael Andersson" <chrazy@hotpop.com> wrote in message news:20020418101359.53504.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > Maybe you want to share with the rest of us, or at least me how you did it? > :) > > /Micke > "Jas" <jlgerfen@hotmail.com> skrev i meddelandet > news:20020417220530.59416.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > > Nevermind... =) > > "Jas" <jlgerfen@hotmail.com> wrote in message > > news:20020417214352.28025.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > > > I am wondering if any one has a good idea on how to do checking based on > a > > > files extension, what I am trying to accomplish is to be able to upload > > > files to a webserver however I only want to have .jpg files uploaded. > If > > > anyone has a good way to do this please share. > > > Thanks in advance, > > > Jas > > > > > > > > > > > >
