[SOLVED] $match_found wont store the value

[clown[NOR]]

i'm currently messing around with file uploading, and i want to check if there's allready a file with the same name so it doesn't overwrite anything... but I couldn't get it to work.. so i diabled the whole upload part and tried to echo out the result...

 

this is the code

<?php
$path = "files/";
$full_path = $path . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
$file = basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
$match_found = false;

if (is_dir($full_path)) {
	if ($dh = opendir($full_path)) {
		while (($search = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
			if ($search == $file) { $match_found = $search; }
		}
		closedir($dh);
	}
}

if ($match_found) { echo "Found 1 match! (" . $match_found . ")"; }
elseif (!$match_found) { echo "No match found! (" . $match_found . ")"; }
?>

 

and all it returns to me is:

No match found! ()

 

any ideas?

looks like it's the $search string that's messing up here...

um, not sure but try $var = 1 OR 0 ## whatever

 

if ($var == 0) OR if($var == 1)

 

 

good luck

i fixed it now... i used the full path like

files/filename.jpg

 

not just the folder name =)
