image upload filter

[emediastudios]

I have this code, it works very well foe me except one thing.

I want to filter the the uploaded image files to be either jpeg, jpg, gif or png.

Any ideas?

Heres the code, i have a image filter in my code but it does not work.

 

<?php 

//This is the directory where images will be saved 
$path = '../images/';

//This gets all the other information from the form 
$name=$_POST['name']; 
$suburb=$_POST['suburb']; 
$price=$_POST['price']; 
$content=$_POST['content']; 
$content2=$_POST['content2']; 
$uploadFile0=($_FILES['uploadFile0']['name']); 
$uploadFile1=($_FILES['uploadFile1']['name']);
$uploadFile2=($_FILES['uploadFile2']['name']);
$uploadFile3=($_FILES['uploadFile3']['name']);
$uploadFile4=($_FILES['uploadFile4']['name']);
$uploadFile5=($_FILES['uploadFile5']['name']);
$uploadFile6=($_FILES['uploadFile6']['name']);
$uploadFile7=($_FILES['uploadFile7']['name']);
$uploadFile8=($_FILES['uploadFile8']['name']);


// Connects to your Database 
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "************") or die(mysql_error()) ; 
mysql_select_db("gcproperty") or die(mysql_error()) ; 


//Writes the information to the database

mysql_query("INSERT INTO `employees` VALUES ('$name', '$suburb', '$price', '$content', '$content2','$uploadFile0', '$uploadFile1', '$uploadFile2', '$uploadFile3', '$uploadFile4', '$uploadFile5', '$uploadFile6', '$uploadFile7', '$uploadFile8')") ; 


$uploadNeed = $_POST['uploadNeed'];
// start for loop
for($x=0;$x<$uploadNeed;$x++){
$file_name = $_FILES['uploadFile'. $x]['name'];
// strip file_name of slashes
$file_name = stripslashes($file_name);
$file_name = str_replace("'","",$file_name);
$copy = move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadFile'. $x]['tmp_name'], $path . $file_name);

}



//filter extensions
function valid_ext($file_name)
{
$valid = array("jpeg","jpg","jpe","png","gif");
$extension = strtolower(substr(strrchr($file_name,"uploadFile" . $x),1));
if(in_array($extension, $valid))
	return TRUE;
else
	return FALSE;
}


//filter by size,
function valid_size()
{
if($_FILES['uploadFile'. $x]['name']['size'] > 1048576)
	return FALSE; //Over one mega
else
	return TRUE;
}


// check if successfully copied

if($copy){
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=property_added_successfully.php\">";
} else{
echo "$file_name The File(s) could not be uploaded!<br>The file must be under 1 meg and be of a valid extension type, (jpeg, ,jpe, jpg, png or gif!<br />
<br />
Please go back and try agian";
}
// end of loop
?>

maybe this will help

 

just change $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'] to $_FILES['uploadFile1']['name'] (your file field name)

 

<?php if (empty($_FILES["newsl_img"]["name"]))
	echo 'Please select a valid image';

if(!((ereg(".jpg", $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'])) || (ereg(".gif", $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'])) || (ereg(".swf", $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'])) || (ereg(".JPG", $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'])) || (ereg(".GIF", $_FILES['newsl_img']['name'])) || (ereg(".SWF",$_FILES['newsl_img']['name']))))
	echo 'Please select jpg, gif or swf file only';
?>
