Re: mime_content_type remote file

Tx for the replies, I fixed the problem: solution: USE --> $filename = str_replace(" ", "%20",$_GET["image"]); NOT --> $filename = str_replace("%20", " ",$_GET["image"]); Best Regards <charles.wroth@exeter.ox.ac.uk> wrote in message news:4847F7D1.9852.117446E@charles.wroth.exeter.ox.ac.uk...

I had trouble with spaces in pathnames. I got round it by surrounding the whole pathname with quotes - an old Windows trick: $s = "'" . $PHP_SELF . "'"; #surround with quotes to allow for spaces in pathname echo "<hr><br>

        <form action=$s method=post>" . #use quotes

[ ...etc ] Not sure if it applies in your case, but if not maybe it'll give you an idea. On 5 Jun 2008 at 14:04, Joris Willekens wrote:

There is no problem when there are no spaces in the name. I can't prevent spaces in the filename, is there a workaround?

A 404 error only ever means the remote file cannot be found. Being as you're swapping out the encoded spaces, I'd be inclined to start with that as the possible cause - did you try the script with the encoding still in place? -----Original Message----- From: Joris Willekens [mailto:willekens@gmail.com] Sent: 04 June 2008 13:18 To: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-WIN] mime_content_type remote file Hello I am using following to determine the mime_type of a remote file $filename = str_replace("%20", " ",$_GET["image"]); echo "Filetype: ". mime_content_type($filename) .
