There's a strange issue with file uploading and mime types, it seems it depends of the browser.. With a file upload system, the above code will show differents results : echo "type : ".$HTTP_POST_FILES["image"]["type"]." name : ".$HTTP_POST_FILES["image_thb"]["name"]." tmpname : ".$HTTP_POST_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"]." size : ".$HTTP_POST_FILES["image"]["size"] ; where 'image' is an input (type='file') field. On IE, it gives : type : image/pjpeg name : apercuclip.jpg tmpname : /tmp/phpwYQzWO size : 5182 Ok, normal, let's try another On Netscape6 it gives : type : image/jpeg name : apercuclip.jpg tmpname : /tmp/php6jgmQR size : 5182 note that the mime type is now image/jpeg and not image/pjpeg On Opera6 : type : image/jpeg; name=\"apercuclip.jpg\" name : apercuclip.jpg tmpname : /tmp/php655KLf size : 5182 Still image/jpeg, but there's also a "name" value ! weird result.. So be careful with that while uploading file.. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+19091 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+19091 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+19091
