How to add restrictions on my little code?

[lobski]

Greetings.

 

I followed the PHP uploading tutorial, and I want to change a few things to it. First is to restrict the uploaded file to ONLY image files, such as jpeg, gif, png, etc.

 

I am following the tutorial here:

http://www.tizag.com/phpT/fileupload.php

 

So far I have this code:

 

 

 

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="250000" />

Select image to upload:

<input name="uploadedfile" type="file" />

<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />

</form>

 

What would I have to change to restrict the files to images?

The code you have posted is html, not php. If you want to insure your uploaded files are images you can use getimagesize, this will return false if given a filename which isn't an image.

Anyway, I pasted in the wrong one... Here's the correct code:

 

<?php

$target_path = "uploads/";

 

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);

 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {

    echo "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']).

    " has successfully been uploaded.";

} else{

    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";

}

?>

<?php

$target_path = "uploads/";

 

if(getimagesize($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'])) {

 

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);

 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {

    echo "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']).

    " has successfully been uploaded.";

} else{

    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";

}

 

} else {

  die("Was not a Image!");

}

?>

 

You can give that a try, however I don't think it is right.

I think that worked... Lastly, I would like to output the exact full URL of the file. Now I want to output 2 versions of the URL, a regular one, and a url with [/img] wrappers around it. How would I do this?  ???

wrappers ?

[lobski]

wrappers ?

Yeah, I just want it to output to the user:

 

http://www.awesome.com/uploads/image.jpg

 

&

 

[img=http://www.awesome.com/uploads/image.jpg]

 

I also forgot to ask, where should I put in size limitations?
