"If no file is selected for upload in your form, PHP will return $_FILES['userfile']['size'] as 0, and $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] as none." Note that the situation above is the same when a file exceeding the MAX_FILE_SIZE hidden field is being uploaded. In this case $_FILES['userfile']['size'] is also set to 0, and $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] is also empty. The difference would only be the error code. Simply checking for these two conditions and assuming no file upload has been attempted is incorrect. Instead, check if $_FILES['userfile']['name'] is set or not. If it is, a file upload has at least been attempted (a failed attempt or not). If it is not set, no attempt has been made. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 92.70.188.98 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/104349 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104349 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/104349 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
