smc Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Alright this is a really basic question but give me a little slack, its my 2nd day working with php :PHere is the code I'm using:[code]<?php$formurl = "/uploaded/";$linkurl = "/uploaded/$file_name";if($file_name !=""){copy ("$file", "./uploaded/$file_name") or die("Could not copy file");}else { die("No file specified");}?><html><head><title>Project Cold Fusion Upload Centre :: Upload Complete</title></head><body><h3>File upload succeeded...</h3><ul><li>Sent: <?php echo "$file_name"; ?><li>Size: <?php echo "$file_size"; ?> bytes<li>Type: <?php echo "$file_type"; ?></ul><a href="<?php echo "$linkurl" ?>">Click here to view your file</a></br><b>File Address:</b> <a href="<?php echo "$linkurl" ?>"><?php echo "$linkurl" ?></a></body></html>[/code]I want to be able to have something saying if file extension is equal to like, for example, mp3, exe, etc. then it won't allow it and will echo the message "Invalid file extension".Thanks for your help!

wildteen88 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Your if statement should be this:[code]if ($file_type == "image/jpg" || $file_type == "image/png" || $file_type == "image/gif")[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/8511-not-allowing-particular-file-extensions/#findComment-31376 Share on other sites More sharing options...
