note 38079 added to function.move-uploaded-file

Hey! Why not using strrchr() to get file extension: <?php $ext = strrchr($_FILES['file']['name'], '.'); ?> or to get it without '.' at the begining: <?php $ext = substr(strrchr($_FILES['file']['name'], '.'), 1); ?> If you want to update file without any strang characters you can use: <?php move_uploaded_file( $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $dir . preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9_\-\.]/i', '_', $_FILES["file"]["name"]) ); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38079 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38079&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38079&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
