There is a user note that specifically provides incorrect information about the $_FILES superglobal (see http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.files.php#106008). The post in question is: *ied3vil at gmail dot com* 02-Oct-2011 02:48<http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.files.php#106008> The [type] member of the array is the mime of the uploaded file. each file should have a mime that tells you what type of tile it is. it is NOT taken from the browser or extension. However, elsewhere in the manual, it is stated that the ['type'] member IS provided by the client and not provided from or checked by PHP. I have thus posted a note citing the part of the manual that says this, to keep people from making bad decisions based on incorrect information; if the incorrect note is removed, I have no problem with my note being removed as well. Thanks! -Jesse
