"application/x-msdownload",
"application/exe",
"application/x-exe",
"application/dos-exe",
"vms/exe",
"application/x-winexe",
"application/msdos-windows",
"application/x-msdos-program"
);

foreach($x as $b){

if ($_FILES['usefile']['type']==$b)die("You cannot upload exe files. I'm reporting you to the FCC!");

if (stristr($_FILES['usefile']['type'],'.exe'))die("You cannot upload exe files. I'm reporting you to the FCC!");

}
?>

How is it "not working?" Any errors?

 

Also, rather than using a loop to check the values in $x, why not just use the in_array() function?

 

<?php
if (in_array($_FILES['usefile']['type'],$x)) die('Nope!');
?>
