I cant get to understand what am I doing wrong here. It keeps saying not a csv file . But I haved saved the file as csv file

 

if($_FILES["file"]["type"] != "application/vnd.ms-excel"){
die("This is not a CSV file.");
}
elseif(is_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'])){
//Connect to the database
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'xxxxxxxx';
$dbpass = 'xxxxxxxx';
$dbname = 'xxxxxxxx';
$link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die('Error connecting to mysql server');
mysql_select_db($dbname);

//Process the CSV file
$handle = fopen($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], "r");
$data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ";"); //Remove if CSV file does not have column headings
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
	$att0 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[0]);
	$att1 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[1]);
	$att2 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[2]);
	$att3 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[3]);
	$att0 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[4]);
	$att1 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[5]);
	$att2 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[6]);
	$att3 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[7]);
	$att3 = mysql_real_escape_string($data[8]);
	$sql = "INSERT INTO `tempusers` (
				`fname` ,
				`mobile` ,
				`center` ,
				`balcf` ,
				`used` ,
				`newbal` ,
				`summary` ,
				`date` ,
				`smssend` 

				)
				VALUES ('" . $att0 . "', '" . $att1 . "', '" . $att2 . "', '" . $att3 . "', '" . $att4 . "', '" . $att5 . "', '" . $att6 . "', '" . $att7 . "', '" . $att8 . "')";
	mysql_query($sql);
}
mysql_close($link);
echo "CSV file successfully imported.";
}
else{
die("You shouldn't be here");
}

what is the value of var_dump($_FILES); ?  According to filext.com, a csv can have types of:

text/comma-separated-values,

text/csv,

application/csv,

application/excel,

application/vnd.ms-excel,

application/vnd.msexcel,

text/anytext

 

you can create an array of those types, and check if the $_FILES['type'] is in_array of it.
