Re: [PHP] MAX_FILE_SIZE : warning
the problem with doing it on your server (you do it just to be sure though) is that the user has to wait for the form + file to be sent to your server before you can respond - this can be very slow ""JFL"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 9davlf$s63$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:9davlf$s63$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > When I set and a > user uploads a file bigger than 50 my script prints a warning. > > How can I use MAX_FILE_SIZE and avoid that warning so that I can print my > own error message to the user ? > > :) Jacob > -- > [ www.eksperten.dk ] Scandinavias biggest IT forum. > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] MAX_FILE_SIZE : warning
Jacob, When you upload a file, it appends a few of its own variables. One of them is size - assuming the file is a variable called $file: if ($file_size > $max_size) { echo $file_name . " was too big!"; } Also, you could check for Mime types. if ($file_type != "image/jpeg" || $file_type != "image/pjpeg") { echo "We only like jpegs!"; } As a footnote, 500Kb is 512000 bytes (1024 bytes in a Kb).

[PHP] MAX_FILE_SIZE : warning
When I set and a user uploads a file bigger than 50 my script prints a warning. How can I use MAX_FILE_SIZE and avoid that warning so that I can print my own error message to the user ? :) Jacob -- [ www.eksperten.dk ] Scandinavias biggest IT forum. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
