php form submittion problem with file and textarea

[Zerpex]

Hia,

 

I'm having a form, containing an image upload, a textarea and some other fields.

 

I have a fileupload, where I check if the upload thingy is empty, with

if(empty($_POST['image']))
{
    echo "Error";
}
else
{
    //Do the imageUpload here
}

 

using the empty, isn't working for some reason, it proceed to the else anyway.

 

Also, I have a textarea with name="productDesc", when I do:

<?php
var_dump($_POST);
?>

 

It doesn't return the textarea, and I can't see why it doesn't.

Also the textarea proceed to the 'else' in the if else in the following code:

Having a lot of questions these days 

 

Thank you guys!

Update, I figured out the image thing! I was using $_POST instead of $_FILES!

 

But still having the other problem with the textarea

can we see your form code aswell?

 

N/M - I see it's on the same page

In my head

 

if(empty($brandid) && empty($_FILES['image']) && empty($_POST['productDesc']))

 

should be true, if just one of them is empty (which the image and textarea) is at the moment, but it still returns false, so it proceed to the actual imageupload :/ it should do the error

nope, that code is checking if all three are empty, not if any one is empty, you need to use the or operator to check if any one is empty.
