[SOLVED] Need help in removing validation from upload files script

agron · May 20, 2009

I have this form in my website with one upload file field. I don't want the upload file function to be mandatory. Here I have included the .php code executing the form. Can anyone tell me what do I need to change in order not to have the upload mandatory. Here is my code:

<?php
// Receiving variables

@$pfw_ip= $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

@$name = addslashes($_POST['name']);

@$companyname = addslashes($_POST['companyname']);

@$address = addslashes($_POST['address']);

@$city = addslashes($_POST['city']);

@$stateprovince = addslashes($_POST['stateprovince']);

@$postalzipcode = addslashes($_POST['postalzipcode']);

@$country = addslashes($_POST['country']);

@$phonenumber = addslashes($_POST['phonenumber']);

@$phonenrextention = addslashes($_POST['phonenrextention']);

@$contactfax = addslashes($_POST['contactfax']);

@$email = addslashes($_POST['email']);

@$services = addslashes($_POST['services']);

@$servicenotinlistdescription = addslashes($_POST['servicenotinlistdescription']);

@$materialtype = addslashes($_POST['materialtype']);

@$materialnotinlistdescription = addslashes($_POST['materialnotinlistdescription']);

@$fileupload_Name = $_FILES['fileupload']['name'];

@$fileupload_Size = $_FILES['fileupload']['size'];

@$fileupload_Temp = $_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name'];

@$fileupload_Mime_Type = $_FILES['fileupload']['type'];

@$dimensionheight = addslashes($_POST['dimensionheight']);

@$dimensionswidth = addslashes($_POST['dimensionswidth']);

@$dimensionslength = addslashes($_POST['dimensionslength']);

@$dimensionsdia = addslashes($_POST['dimensionsdia']);

@$additionalcomments = addslashes($_POST['additionalcomments']);

function RecursiveMkdir($path)

{

if (!file_exists($path))

{

RecursiveMkdir(dirname($path));

mkdir($path, 0777);

}

}

// Validation

if( $fileupload_Size == 0)

{

header("Location: fail.html");

exit;

}

if( $fileupload_Size >10000000000)

{

//delete file

unlink($fileupload_Temp);

header("Location: fail.html");

exit;

}

if( $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/jpeg" )

{

unlink($fileupload_Temp);

header("Location: fail.html");

exit;

}

$uploadFile = "uploads/".$fileupload_Name ;

if (!is_dir(dirname($uploadFile)))

{

@RecursiveMkdir(dirname($uploadFile));

}

else

{

@chmod(dirname($uploadFile), 0777);

}

@move_uploaded_file( $fileupload_Temp , $uploadFile);

chmod($uploadFile, 0644);

$fileupload_URL = "http://website.com/uploads/".$fileupload_Name ;

//Sending Email to form owner

$pfw_header = "From: $email\n"

. "Reply-To: $email\n";

$pfw_subject = "h8";

$pfw_email_to = "email@email.com";

$pfw_message = "Visitor's IP: $pfw_ip\n"

. "name: $name\n"

. "companyname: $companyname\n"

. "address: $address\n"

. "city: $city\n"

. "stateprovince: $stateprovince\n"

. "postalzipcode: $postalzipcode\n"

. "country: $country\n"

. "phonenumber: $phonenumber\n"

. "phonenrextention: $phonenrextention\n"

. "contactfax: $contactfax\n"

. "email: $email\n"

. "services: $services\n"

. "servicenotinlistdescription: $servicenotinlistdescription\n"

. "materialtype: $materialtype\n"

. "materialnotinlistdescription: $materialnotinlistdescription\n"

. "fileupload: $fileupload_URL\n"

. "dimensionheight: $dimensionheight\n"

. "dimensionswidth: $dimensionswidth\n"

. "dimensionslength: $dimensionslength\n"

. "dimensionsdia: $dimensionsdia\n"

. "additionalcomments: $additionalcomments\n";

@mail($pfw_email_to, $pfw_subject ,$pfw_message ,$pfw_header ) ;

header("Location: success.html");

?>

I don't have a lot of .php knowledge so if someone will rewrite the above code and post it, would be really appreciated

Thank you very much in advance,

remove

// Validation
if( $fileupload_Size == 0)
{
header("Location: fail.html");
exit;
}

and

if( $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/jpeg" )
{
unlink($fileupload_Temp);
header("Location: fail.html");
exit;
}

and WOW @ @'s

agron · May 20, 2009

I would like to keep all the other validations like filesize and format, I just don't want it to be mandatory. How can I do that?

MadTechie · May 20, 2009

Okay, remove them but add

this

<?php
// Validation
if(!empty($fileupload_Name))
{
if( $fileupload_Size == 0)
{
	header("Location: fail.html");
	exit;
}
if( $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/jpeg" )
{
	unlink($fileupload_Temp);
	header("Location: fail.html");
	exit;
}
}
?>

this check to see if a file was used if it was then checks

It looks like it is working now. The only qustion I have is this: How do you fix this piece so that I have a 5 mgb file size limit:

// File Validation
if (! empty($_FILES['fileupload']['name'])) {

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['size'] == 0) {

header("Location: fail.html");

exit();

}

Thanks again

MadTechie · May 20, 2009

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['size'] == 0) {

to

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['size'] == 0 || $_FILES['fileupload']['size'] > 5242880) {

note

5000000 would be fine but 5MB in bytes is 5242880

agron · May 20, 2009

I am probably boring you with all these questions but what do I need to do if I want to have 4 extensions: jpeg, jpg, png, gif?

I did this but it isn't working:

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] != "image/gif" AND $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/jpeg" AND $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/png" ) {
unlink($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name']);

header("Location: fail.html");

exit();

}

I am probably boring you with all these questions but what do I need to do if I want to have 4 extensions: jpeg, jpg, png, gif?

http://php.net/pathinfo

MadTechie · May 20, 2009

Okay

change

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] != "image/gif" AND $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/jpeg" AND $fileupload_Mime_Type != "image/png" )

to

$validfiles = array("image/gif","image/jpeg","image/png","image/jpeg","image/x-png");
if (!in_array($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] ,$validfiles))

agron · May 20, 2009

Right now I have:

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] != "image/jpeg") {
unlink($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name']);

header("Location: fail.html");

exit();

}

and it is working only for "jpeg". I did try your fix but I am getting this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/..../public_html/form.php on line 46

and line 46 is far from the lines I changed

45) } else {
46) $fileupload_URL = "No file uploader";

47) }

I just need to add a couple of more extensions, jpg, gif, png that's all

Thanks again,

MadTechie · May 20, 2009

if ($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] != "image/jpeg") {
        unlink($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name']);
        header("Location: fail.html");
        exit();
    }

should be

$validfiles = array("image/gif","image/jpeg","image/png","image/jpeg","image/x-png");
if (!in_array($_FILES['fileupload']['type'] ,$validfiles)) {
        unlink($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name']);
        header("Location: fail.html");
        exit();
    }
