[SOLVED] Blank Submission code

[graham23s]

Hi Guys,

 

 

on my site i allow multiple files to be uploaded at once , but was wanting to put in some code so that if a black submission (no photos selected) was submitted the code would spit an error and exit

 

i have this:

 

     ## empty submission ################################################################
     if(empty($headshot1) || empty($headshot2) || empty($headshot3) || empty($headshot4) || empty($headshot5)) {
     
     echo 'EMPTY';
     include("includes/footer.php");
     exit;
     
     }

 

but this needs you to upoad all 5 at the 1 time, and some users might only want to upload 1,2 or 3 not the whole 5

 

this is easy enough with post data but this has stumped me.

 

thanks guys

 

Graham

so do you only want an empty message if all 5 are empty?

 

If this is the case then use AND (&&) instead of OR (||)

 

Currently your code will spit an error if any of the fields are empty because of the OR. Using the && will mean that if all 5 are empty you will get the error but not under any other circumstances

Not a problem.

 

If this has solved it go ahead and mark the topic as solved or you will get some of the rulebies on your case

done this for fun to cheek form input.

 

<?php

if(isset($_POST['submit'])){

        foreach($images as $a => $x){

           if(empty($x)){
           	
           	echo "<center>  <br>Sorry empty field $a <br> </center>";
           	
           }else{
           	
           	echo "<center> <br> field  $a sent: (Text Sent:  <font color='red'>$x</font>) <br> </center>";
           }

               	}   
        }  
       	
  ?>


<center>

<form method="POST" action = " <?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?> " >

<?php

for($i=0; $i<4; $i++){


echo"<br>Field number: $i<br><input type='text' name='images[]'>";
}
?>

<p></p>

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="post me!">

</form>

</center>
