Need to modify upload script to add an allowed extension

[Lassie]

upload.phpI want to modify a script to add pdf as an allowable extension.

I have tried modifying the array of the $allowable extensions but pdf files are still rejected on upload.

Is there anything else in this script I need to modify?

 

these seem to be relevant parts

line 62

 

class qqFileUploader {

private $allowedExtensions = array();

private $sizeLimit = 10485760;

private $file;

 

function __construct(array $allowedExtensions = array(), $sizeLimit = 10485760){

$allowedExtensions = array_map("strtolower", $allowedExtensions);

 

$this->allowedExtensions = $allowedExtensions;

$this->sizeLimit = $sizeLimit;

 

line 134

$pathinfo = pathinfo($this->file->getName());

$filename = $pathinfo['filename'];

//$filename = md5(uniqid());

$ext = $pathinfo['extension'];

 

if($this->allowedExtensions && !in_array(strtolower($ext), $this->allowedExtensions)){

$these = implode(', ', $this->allowedExtensions);

return array('error' => 'File has an invalid extension, it should be one of '. $these . '.');// list of valid extensions, ex. array("jpeg", "xml", "bmp")

line 162

 

$allowedExtensions = array( "jpeg", "jpg", "png", "gif", "mp3", "ogg", "mp4", "webm", "ogv","pdf" );

Why are you defining the allowed extensions way after trying to use it?

What exact symptom or error do you get the leads you to believe that pdf files are rejected?
