Total PHP Failure

Recommended Posts

My code is a total failure. Any ideas?

 

<?php
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")) && ($_FILES["file"] ["size"] < 4000000))
  {
  echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />That means your picture is not right somehow...<br />";
  }
else
  {
  $i=1;
  while($i<=5000)
    {
    if (file_exists("./photos/" $POST['lname'] . "_" . $i . "_" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]]))
      {
      $i++;
      }
    else
      {
      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
      "photos/" $POST['lname'] . "_" . $i . "_" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
      $i=5000;
      }
    }
  }
else
  {
  echo "Invalid file... Only 4MB and jpeg/gifs allowed.";
  }

$con = mysql_connect(
  'localhost',
  'root',
  'password')

if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("submition", $con)

$sql = "INSERT INTO 'submition' ('fname','lname','address1','address2','city','stat_prov_reg','postal_zip','country','email','newsletter') VALUES ('"$POST['element_1_1']."' , '"$POST['element_1_2']."' , '"$POST['element_2_1']."' , '"$POST['element_2_2']."' , '"$POST['element_2_3']."' , '"$POST['element_2_4']."' , '"$POST['element_2_5']."' , '"$POST['element_2_6']."' , '"$POST['element_3']."' , '"$POST['element_7']."')";

mysql_query($sql) or die('Bad Query');

mysql_close($con);
?>

You have several syntax errors such as improper string concatenation, using $POST instead of $_POST, and extra/missing brackets.

 

:) And to detect all fatal syntax errors set error reporting to max.

..and your indentation. Change it. Also, you should construct variables where necessary. Like this:

 

  $i=1;
  while($i<=5000)
    {
    if (file_exists("./photos/" $POST['lname'] . "_" . $i . "_" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]]))
      {
      $i++;
      }
    else
      {
        .....
       }

 

Should be far cleaner and simpler:

 

$i=1;
while($i <= 5000){

$filename = "./photos/" $POST['lname'] . "_" . $i . "_" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];

  if(file_exists($filename)){
    $i++
  }else{
    .....
  }

}

 

note: not checked for syntax issues.

 

You should use the above structure because your code will be highly unmaintainable as you develop it and it becomes more complex.
