Restricting File Upload Types

[shanejeffery86]

Hey there guys.

 

I need to restrict file uploads to the following types:

 

.XLS and .CSV

 

How would I go about doing that?

 

Thanks.

First you would need to check the filetype based on its suffix with something like:

 

$suffix = substr($filename, strripos($filename, '.'));

 

then just check that matches the types you want (xls or csv) before carrying out the upload function.
