Bricktop Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hi yami007, You can't check for a file upload with the $_POST parameter, use is_uploaded_file instead and/or $_FILES instead. http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.is-uploaded-file.php http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.files.php Hope this helps.

Zane Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 file uploads are stored in the $_FILES superglobal... (instead of $_POST) it looked like this on the inside The format of this array is (assuming your form has two input type=file fields named "file1", "file2", etc): Array ( [file1] => Array ( [name] => MyFile.txt (comes from the browser, so treat as tainted) [type] => text/plain (not sure where it gets this from - assume the browser, so treat as tainted) [tmp_name] => /tmp/php/php1h4j1o (could be anywhere on your system, depending on your config settings, but the user has no control, so this isn't tainted) [error] => UPLOAD_ERR_OK (= 0) => 123 (the size in bytes) ) [file2] => Array ( [name] => MyFile.jpg [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] => /tmp/php/php6hst32 [error] => UPLOAD_ERR_OK => 98174 ) ) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/174581-solved-what-should-i-do-with-file-_postimage/#findComment-920069 Share on other sites More sharing options...
