upload form

I have the following upload form that I want to be able to browse images only. Is this possible or something I will have to implement through PHP?

 

<form action="image_upload_action.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<table width="350" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="box">
<tr>
<td width="246">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">
<input name="userfile" type="file" id="userfile">
</td>
<td width="80"><input name="upload" type="submit" class="box" id="upload" value=" Upload "></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

you can 'limit' the file type with the 'accept' attribute of the input

 

eg.

<input type="file" name="upfile" id="upfile" accept="gif,png,jpeg,jpg" />

 

However this is by no means to be trusted - most modern browses ignore it.

 

You could use some javascript to check but that relies on javascript being available...

 

Bottom line is you should ALWAYS check any user input before doing anything with it so I would advise you check this server side.
