Re: HTML_QuickForm - Check of uploaded file using custom function

Hi! Steffen Gebert wrote:

i'm using HTML_QuickForm and HTML_QuickForm_Controller to build a mulit-page Wizard for sign-in in a community. in one of the steps users may upload one (at the moment, later more) image. So i want to check, if the uploaded file is really an image, so that my process-script will be able to save an scale it down. I've tried the following Code: $file =& $this->addElement('file', 'pic1', 'Your Pictore:'); $this->addRule('pic1', 'Not an image', 'function', 'CheckImage', 'validation'); But validation::CheckImage() is never executed. I've also tried to place the function in the HTML_QuickForm_Page and deleted the 'validation'- element of the rule, but it doesn't help.

I suggest to a) either check the return value of the functions that can throw errors (e.g. addRule) or set the global error handling: PEAR::setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_DIE); b) consult the documentation on rules: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.html.html-quickform.intro-validation.php
