Hi Jim, here's how I do it. I test for the file size on the processing page
as well, if it's too large I redraw out the upload form.
//test for file extension type if needed
//determine file size -- if too big ( greater 50kb) then redirect
$siz = filesize($userfile);
if ($siz >= 51200){
//redraw upload form
print "<font face='verdana' size='2' class='text_size_9'>The photo you
attempted to upload was too large in file size. Please ensure that the file
size does not exceed 50kb.</font>";
print "<form method='POST' action='photoupload.php'
enctype='multipart/form-data'><input type='hidden' name='MAX_FILE_SIZE'
value='51200'>
<input type='file' name='userfile' size='15' style='font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 8pt;'><input type='submit' name='submit' value='Upload'
style='font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8pt;'>";
print "</form>";
}
elseif ($siz < 51200)
{
$timestamp = time();
$userfile_name = $timestamp.$userfile_name ;
// copy the file being posted
if(copy($userfile, "/dir/dir/pics/". $userfile_name)){
print "<font face='verdana' size='2' class='text_size_9'>Your photo has
been uploaded and is viewable in the photo gallery.</font><br><br>" ;
}
else
{
print "<font face='verdana' size='2' class='text_size_9'>A problem was
encountered during your photo upload.</font><br>";
}
$patharola = "pics/". $userfile_name;
//connect to db
$connectionToDBid = odbc_connect("dgsff", "sdgsdfg", "sdfgsdfg");
//create query statement
$sqlr = "INSERT INTO PHOTO (golferid, photo, caption, datesubmitted) VALUES
('$sesgolferid' , '$patharola', '$caption', '$todaysdate' )";
//execute the sql statement (query) on the connection made
$resultset = odbc_do($connectionToDBid, $sqlr);
blah blah blah ...
Hope this helps you out, Joe :)
