Need help with php image uploading form


iNko

Recommended Posts

Hello, iv found some guides on how to make this form with restrictions, but some of them are not working.

 

Problems that im having with this:

1) It uploads an image even if its size is bigger than the MAX_SIZE (it shows a message that the file size is too big but uploads anyway) (if i pick a file thats not jpeg/png/jpg/gif it wont upload tho).

2) When i press submit button w/o selecting any files, it gives me the message that file was uploaded. (do i need to add an 'else' in the if(isset) part?)

3) Dunno how to explain this, but when pick some non-image file and click submit, it gives me that the file type is bad (witch it should), however when i choose an image file right after this and click submit again (it says that type is bad again), if i pick same image file for the 3rd time and click submit it gives me the message that it was uploaded.

Same if i do it backwards:

I) pick image, submit - "file uploaded"

II) pick non-image, submit - "file uploaded"

III) pick non-image, submit -"bad type"

 

Heres the code that i have (i left it with comments, idk if i should have removed them or not):

<?php
//define a maxim size for the uploaded images in Kb
define ("MAX_SIZE","20"); 

//This function reads the extension of the file. It is used to determine if the
// file  is an image by checking the extension.
function getExtension($str) {
         $i = strrpos($str,".");
         if (!$i) { return ""; }
         $l = strlen($str) - $i;
         $ext = substr($str,$i+1,$l);
         return $ext;
}

//This variable is used as a flag. The value is initialized with 0 (meaning no 
// error  found)  
//and it will be changed to 1 if an errro occures.  
//If the error occures the file will not be uploaded.
$errors=0;
//checks if the form has been submitted
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) 
{
	//reads the name of the file the user submitted for uploading
	$image=$_FILES['image']['name'];
	//if it is not empty
	if ($image) 
	{
	//get the original name of the file from the clients machine
		$filename = stripslashes($_FILES['image']['name']);
	//get the extension of the file in a lower case format
  		$extension = getExtension($filename);
		$extension = strtolower($extension);
	//if it is not a known extension, we will suppose it is an error and 
        // will not  upload the file,  
//otherwise we will do more tests
if (($extension != "jpg") && ($extension != "jpeg") && ($extension !=
"png") && ($extension != "gif")) 
		{
	//print error message
			echo '<script type="text/javascript"> 
window.onsubmit=function(){alert("Blogas failo formatas!");} 
</script>';
			$errors=1;
		}
		else
		{
//get the size of the image in bytes
//$_FILES['image']['tmp_name'] is the temporary filename of the file
//in which the uploaded file was stored on the server
$size=filesize($_FILES['image']['tmp_name']);

//compare the size with the maxim size we defined and print error if bigger
if ($size > MAX_SIZE*1024)
{
echo '<script type="text/javascript"> 
window.onsubmit=function(){alert("Per didelis failo dydis!");} 
</script>';
$errors=1;
}

//we will give an unique name, for example the time in unix time format
$image_name=time().'.'.$extension;
//the new name will be containing the full path where will be stored (images 
//folder)
$newname="uploads/".$image_name;
//we verify if the image has been uploaded, and print error instead
$copied = copy($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $newname);
if (!$copied) 
{
echo '<script type="text/javascript"> 
window.onsubmit=function(){alert("Nepavyko ikelti failo!");} 
</script>';
$errors=1;
}}} 
}

//If no errors registred, print the success message
if(isset($_POST['Submit']) && !$errors )
{
	echo '<script type="text/javascript"> 
window.onsubmit=function(){alert("Failas ikeltas!");} 
</script>';
} 
?>

<!--next comes the form, you must set the enctype to "multipart/frm-data" 
and use an input type "file" -->
<form name="newad" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"  
action="">
<label for="file" id="label">Pasirinkti failą: </label>
<input type="file" name="image" id="file">
<input name="Submit" type="submit" value="įkelti" id="submit">
</form>

 

thx in advance

Where shall i start

 

1) DONT rely on the file type being the file extension.

list($origWidth, $origHeight, $fileType = getimagesize($myFile);

$standardFileTypes   = array(1    => 'gif',
                                          2    => 'jpg',
                                          3    => 'png',
                                          4    => 'swf',
                                          5    => 'pnd',
                                          6    => 'bmp', 
                                          7    => 'tiff', 
                                          8    => 'tuff',
                                          9    => 'jpc',
                                          10    => 'jp2',
                                          11    => 'jpx', 
                                          12    => 'jb2',
                                          13    => 'swc', 
                                          14    => 'iff',
                                          15    => 'wbmp',
                                          16    => 'xbm');
            
$fileExt = $standardFileTypes[$fileType];


 

 

2: You check if the file size is too big but you dont stop execution

 

if($var1 == $var2){
// If the condition is true, execute this
}

// Execute this, regardless of the above if statement

 

Check if file exists and not empty

if(isset($_FILES['field']['tmp_name']) && $_FILES['field']['tmp_name']['size'] > 0){

}else{
// Nothing to upload
}

thx for the fast reply, any ideas why the onsubmit() function isnt working properly?

 

it works with some delay, i have to do the same action twice for it to display (everything else works, it uploads the file just shows delayed message) the correct message

Why are you using JavaScript onSubmit()

 

This function is normally used when you want to track a submit on a form. not throughout the website.

 

If you want a simple echo at that point, use php echo, else just use JavaScript alert.
