[PHP] How to upload a file
Posted: 2 Apr 2009, 16:48pm - Thursday

I would like to share this script to all since most of my friends ask how to create an upload script using PHP. Download the PHP script at;

  1. Main Download: simple_upload.zip
  2. Mirror 1: simple_upload.zip
Upload File Demo: http://www.cable21.net/camilord/simple_upload/index.html Modification according to your preferred setup Its default upload directory is uploads/ and to change this, just change the line 19; // set upload destination $uploaddir = "uploads/"; In the script, it is capable to validate allowed file types. As default, images files are only allowed to be uploaded. To change this, just edit the upload.php at line 37. // allowed file types $validMIME = array('jpg','jpeg','bmp','png','gif'); Just add any file extension you want to allow... Sample; // allowed file types $validMIME = array('jpg','jpeg','bmp','png','gif','doc','zip','pdf'); So I just allowed Document, Zip and PDF files... That's all.. I think everything is understandable.. hehehe.. Please read also the comments.
