dandan321 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Hello, I am having trouble with getting my uploader script to do what I need it to do. The uploader works fine. What I am trying to do is give an option to upload or not to upload. (this way if an image is present in the database, users would have a choice to upload or not.) I have two parts of code, html and php Any help in this would be great! HTML <html> <head></head> <body> <form action="test.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <br><br> Choose a file to upload:<br> <input type="file" name="file"><br> <input name="filec" type="checkbox" value="check" checked> Yes I want to upload a file<br> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"> </form> </body> </html> PHP <?php if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['submit']) { if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['filec'] != "check") { Header("Location: http://www.yahoo.com"); } else { if (!is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'])) { $error = "You did not upload a file!"; unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']); // assign error message, remove uploaded file, redisplay form. Header("Location: somepage.php?error=" . $error); } else { //a file was uploaded $maxfilesize=20000000; if ($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['size'] > $maxfilesize) { $error = "file is too large"; unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']); // assign error message, remove uploaded file, redisplay form. Header("Location: somepage.php?error=" . $error); } else { if ($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['type'] != "image/gif" AND $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['type'] != "image/pjpeg") { $error = "This file type is not allowed"; Header("Location: somepage.php?error=" . $error); unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']); //assign error message, remove uploaded file, redisplay form. } else { //File has passed all validation, copy it to the final destination and remove the temporary file: copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],"/hshome/martinar/martinarts.org/test/files/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name']); unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']); //print "File has been successfully uploaded!"; Header("Location: somepage.php?file=" . $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name'] . "&type=" . $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['type']); exit; } } } } } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62380-solved-help-with-uploading-script/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humpty Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Just as a sugestion until someone who knows what they are doing can answer, I would like point out that the file starts to upload when you submit. Perhaps if the EU doesn't want to upload a picture hide that file input using JS or on the second script maybe set the file size to 2bytes or something. (Sorry if i didn't understand the problem) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62380-solved-help-with-uploading-script/#findComment-310465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan321 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 Thanks for the reply, Though the problem I am having is that when the page is submitted its not reading the conditional code. If they check yes I want to upload, it should upload and if they uncheck it, the conditional code should take them to another page bypassing the upload. I want to see if my code is right.

dandan321 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 I figured it out. I am new to php. every time I was putting in = it was bypassing the if statement. What I needed to put in was == This script works but its backwords because its using non equal to != I put the != in right before I submitted the post.
