Download question

[metalhead41]

I have an upload/download script working, I have one tiny little question though...

I know I can set php to only accept certain files, is there a way I can get it to append an image to the list of downloads depending on what file type it is?

Yes, you could try something like:

<?php

$file = "image.gif"; //The file

$imageTypes = array("image/png", "image/jpeg", "image/gif");

if( in_array("mime_content_type('$file')",  $imageTypes) )
{
    echo "<a href=\"path/$file\"> download </a>";
}

?>

Just tried this, but it doesn't seem to want to work. This is my current code:

<?php
include 'library/config.php';
include 'library/opendb.php';

$query  = "SELECT id, name FROM upload";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 0)
{
echo "Database is empty <br>";
} 
else
{
while(list($id, $name) = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
	{
		echo "got filename from db<br />";
	}
?>
<a href="download.php?id=<?=$id;?>"><?=$name;?></a><br />
<?php		
}
}
include 'library/closedb.php';
?>
