trying to rename the files uploaded based on which form they come from on the html page afile,bfile etc. I have tried this php file a number of different ways. I can get it to work when I eliminate the large IF statement and make 6 separate files for uploading but I was hoping to make it one file This is what I believe makes it fail moving the global variables in to normal vars?
<?php
//This function separates the extension from the rest of the file name and returns it
function findexts ($filename)
{
$filename = strtolower($filename) ;
$exts = split("[/\\.]", $filename) ;
$n = count($exts)-1;
$exts = $exts[$n];
return $exts;
}
//This if statement assigns the new file name to a variable and displays a message.
if (file_exists($_FILES["afile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file1.";
$type = $_FILES ["afile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["afile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["afile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["afile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["afile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "afile";
echo "file1 Uploaded <br />";
}
elseif (file_exists($_FILES["bfile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file2.";
$type = $_FILES ["bfile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["bfile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["bfile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["bfile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["bfile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "bfile";
echo "file2 Uploaded <br />";
}
elseif (file_exists($_FILES["cfile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file3.";
$type = $_FILES ["cfile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["cfile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["cfile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["cfile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["cfile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "cfile";
echo "file3 Uploaded <br />";
}
elseif (file_exists($_FILES["dfile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file4.";
$type = $_FILES ["dfile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["dfile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["dfile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["dfile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["dfile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "dfile";
echo "file4 Uploaded <br />";
}
elseif (file_exists($_FILES["efile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file5.";
$type = $_FILES ["efile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["efile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["efile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["efile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["efile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "efile";
echo "file5 Uploaded <br />";
}
elseif (file_exists($_FILES["ffile"]["tmp_name"]))
{
$new = "file6.";
$type = $_FILES ["ffile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES ["ffile"] ["size"];
$error = $_FILES ["ffile"] ["error"];
$name = $_FILES ["ffile"] ["name"];
$tmpname = $_FILES["ffile"]["tmp_name"];
$names = "ffile";
echo "file6 Uploaded <br />";
}
//This applies the function to our file
$ext = findexts ($_FILES ['$names'] ['name']) ;
//This assigns the subdirectory you want to save into.
$targett = "forms/upload/";
//This combines the directory, the new file name, and the extension
$target = $targett . $new.$ext;
// makes sure image meets specs
if ((($type == "image/gif")
|| ($type == "image/jpeg")
|| ($type == "image/pjpeg"))
&& ($size < 2000000))
{
if ( $error > 0)
{
echo "Return Code: " . $error . "<br />";
}
else
{
echo "Thank You! <br />";
}
//saves uploaded file
if (file_exists("forms/upload/" . $name))
{
move_uploaded_file( $tmpname, $target);
echo $name . " Old File Over Written. ";
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file( $tmpname, $target);
echo "Stored in: " . "forms/upload/" . $name;
}
?>
Maybe is my elseif statement broken?
I have only been playing with this php stuff for about a week so if I'm way off mark here sorry for wasting your time.
Maybe if I try making 6 functions with the globals move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $target); than placeing them in the elseif statement it could work?
this is a copy of the working php page
<?php
//This function separates the extension from the rest of the file name and returns it
function findexts ($filename)
{
$filename = strtolower($filename) ;
$exts = split("[/\\.]", $filename) ;
$n = count($exts)-1;
$exts = $exts[$n];
return $exts;
}
//This applies the function to our file
$ext = findexts ($_FILES['afile']['name']) ;
//This line assigns a random number to a variable. You could also use a timestamp here if you prefer.
$new = "file1.";
//This assigns the subdirectory you want to save into... make sure it exists!
$targett = "forms/upload/";
//This combines the directory, the random file name, and the extension
$target = $targett . $new.$ext;
if ((($_FILES["afile"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["afile"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["afile"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg"))
&& ($_FILES["afile"]["size"] < 2000000))
{
if ($_FILES["afile"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["afile"]["error"] . "<br />";
}
else
{
echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["afile"]["name"] . "<br />";
echo "Type: " . $_FILES["afile"]["type"] . "<br />";
echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["afile"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["afile"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";
if (file_exists("forms/upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
{
echo $_FILES["afile"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["afile"]["tmp_name"], $target);
echo "Stored in: " . "forms/upload/" . $_FILES["afile"]["name"];
}
else
{
echo "Invalid file";
}
