mostafatalebi Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Hello everybody I have made an upload form. I need to limit the file-support to several types. PDF DOCX DOC ZIP RAR What shall I do? I search the whole net and reach at no specific result. How can I validate these specific files. Is pathinfo(PATHINFO_EXTENSION) enough? and if yes, how ?

requinix Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 How valid does it have to be? The extension is a good starting point. Otherwise the fileinfo extension can tell you the MIME type for a file (because the one given in $_FILES isn't trustworthy) but it takes a bit of work to set it up.
