Note Submitter: michael at htmlland dot net ---- I have found on upload scripts or on file manipulation scripts that people can trick a classic file type filter: example: <?php $filename="bob.jpg.wav"; $bits= explode(".",$filename); $extention= $bits[1]; if($extention == "jpg"){ echo"Not correct"; exit; } ?> This returns the filename extention as jpg not wav. One way to change this is to use count() : example: <?php $filename="bob.jpg.wav"; $bits= explode(".",$filename); $extention= $bits[count($bits) - 1]; if($extention == "jpg"){ echo "Not correct"; exit; } ?> This returns the filename extention as wav not jpg.
