file upload if file uploaded statement

How do i determine that a file has been fully uploaded ? I want to create and if statement that says if this file has been uploaded then set a session Variable.

It depends on how you're doing the upload. If you're using a "move" command to a permanent folder after it loads to the temporary, it will return false if it fails, so you can use an if statement on the command itself.

 

Otherwise run a file_exists() at the target location to see if it was uploaded or not.

how does this look>?

 

$newname = uniqid("leg").$type1;
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['mailfile']['tmp_name'],
"../legalstorage/$getn/$newname")){
$_SESSION['setform']=true;
$_SESSION['pic']= 0;
header('Location: http://privatechatnow.com/currentwebsite/activation/upage.php?id='.$id);
}else{
$_SESSION['setform']=true;
$_SESSION['pic']= 1;
header('Location: http://privatechatnow.com/currentwebsite/activation/upage.php?id='.$id);
}

Doesn't matter how it looks, just if it works. But that will run the "else" portion of the statement if it doesn't upload properly if that is what you're checking for.
