PHP image upload .....HELP
I'm not sure what it is I'm doing wrong and please excuse the unoptimized code.
Here's the problem:
I'm trying to 1. upload and image
2. store the image name in the database according to the product id it is associated with
I have the name storage under control, but the image itself will not upload. It has the extension of .jpg, but when I try to print out the filetype
echo "Filetype: (".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].")";
The result is blank. I know the image must have a filetype, right?
The complete code is below.
-------------------------------------------------------------
$imagetypes = Array ("image/gif", "image/pjpeg", "image/jpeg", "image/djpeg");
if (in_array($_FILES['imagefile']['type'], $imagetypes))
{ upload }
else {
echo "Filetype: (".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].")";
}
The upload code isn't really necessary,since it never gets to taht point

Why don't you have your upload code posted? The code you have posted will post the filetype ONLY IF the upload fails. So if the filetype is not printed to the browser, it must mean that the upload if successful, but perhaps your script doesn't handle the uploaded file correctly.

well, everytime I attempt to upload the jpeg, it goes straight to the "Incorrect Filetype" portion of the code. I assumed that the upload portion isn't even being run.

Can you post your HTML to code?

1. You need to add enctype="multipart/form-data" to your tag...
2. In your HTML you have the 2 file fields named "imagefile1" and "imagefile2" but in your PHP code you're trying to get the filetype and filename of "imagefile" (without the 1 or 2 at the end).
