Hey Guys,

 

Below is a snippet of my file upload script thats causing a problem. Everytime I try to upload a file it seems to fail and output the defined error of "The submitted file was invalid."

 

The file I am submitting is a jpg, 760kb. The file name is "pict0001.jpg". The script seems to work fine for smaller files but anything past 500kb or so just seems to fail. Anyone any ideas why . . . cause I am stumpted!

 

function generate_rand($l){
$c= "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
for($i=0; $i<$l; $i++)
{
$rand.= $c[rand()%strlen($c)];
}
return $rand;
}

$uploaddir = "user_images/";
$maxfilesize = 1048576; //1 megabyte
$filename = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
$filesize = $_FILES['userfile']['size'];
$filetmpname = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
$valid = array (".jpg",".gif",".png");
if ($filename) {
$error = "";
if ($filesize == 0) {
$error_file .= "The submitted file was invalid.<br />";

$execute = "no";
}
$type = strtolower(strstr($filename, '.'));
if (!in_array($type, $valid)) {
$error_file .= "The submitted file was of invalid type.<br />";

$execute = "no";
}
if ($filesize>$maxfilesize) {
$error_file .= "The submitted file was larger than a Megabyte.<br />";

$execute = "no";
}

Wow 5000 bytes? ;)

 

Than I can no longer help you anymore. I'm only able to solve problems that I have experienced myself (I'm not an expert). Well just wait a little, there are so many people here on this forum that know so much more than me that I'm pretty sure you will get it to work!

 

Kind regards,

Sebas.

Thanks . .just as you posted that I figured it out.

 

The problem was with the HTML

 

<input  type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="20000)">

 

should of been...

 

<input  type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1048576)">

 

It was causing a conflict! Thanks anyway!
