FIle Uploads: Empty _POST And _FILES Arrays When File Too Large
Uploading of files.. AFAIU from the manual, if a file is larger than the size defined in the form or larger than upload_max_filesize in php.ini, that _FILES['file']['error'] should hold an INT error code. The file upload system is working fine if the file is smaller than the defined size, but if it's larger, then both the _POST and _FILES arrays are completely empty: array(0) { } I can obviously check to see if $_FILES is set and contains elements, but I was hoping for more specific error handling (reason as to why the upload failed). Has anyone else encountered this? Any info welcomed =)
Empty Variables And 4.21 (POST/GET)
With global variables set to on, I always had the following in my script to make sure variables had a default value: if (empty($var)) { $var = 1;} Now with 4.21, I changed it to: if (empty($_GET['var'])) { $var = 1;} The problem is sometimes I use GET and sometimes I use POST. With global variables on it didn't matter. Now it does. Is there a way to do this? When I try if (empty($_GET['var']) || empty($_POST['var'])), it doesn't work because one or the other will always be empty at any one time.
Query About Empty POST Arrays
I started programming in PHP recently and have a query about empty $_POST arrays. I can see two scenarios when this could happen. 1. When some tries to directly load the page to which data is being posted (for example, opening www.foo.com/xyz.php directly when a form action is xyz.php) 2. When the user clicks the submit button without entering anything. I am aware that Javascript validation can take care of the second case, but it's unreliable. What is the accepted way of handling the above situations on the server side? Do I just reload the calling page if the array is empty?
Cannot Read Information From Form Using POST Or GET ($_Post Is Empty)
I am having problems in my php code. I am relatively new to php but I know some basics. This is the problem: when i try to echo some information that is typed into form back to the screen i get absolutely nothing. It seems like $_POST['name'] is an empty string, along with $_POST and $_GET['name']. I looked around to see if someone else had the same problem and found that some people's code didn't work because of IE6. but i also tried mine on Netscape and i got the same problem. So why is $_POST empty after posting information. Even $_GET was empty. all of those returned empty echo $_POST; echo $_POST['name']; echo $_GET['name']; here is the code: the code was originially meant to send an email but i commented the if statement out to see why it wasn't working <html> <head><title>Feedback</title></head> <body> <?php // Handle POST method. //if ($_POST) //{ $name = $_POST['name']; $email = $_POST['email']; $comments = $_POST['comments']; // Compose simple text message: $message = "Message from $name ($email) Comments: $comments"; // Send message to bob@microsoft.com mail("email@email.com", "Feedback", $message);
Ftp_nlist Returns False For Empty Directory Instead Of Empty Array
In an application installed with PHP5 it looks like ftp_nlist() returns false if the directory is empty, instead of an empty array as it should according to the manual. On the original server with PHP4 it works as expected. Is this a bug, or an undocumented change in PHP5, or a setting that could be changed somewhere?
Each $_FILES
nothing shows up when I run this code from a form? I'm trying to cycle through what needs to be uploaded. I have 5 file inputs. echo "Values submitted via FILESbr /> "; reset ($_FILES); while (list ($key, $val) = each ($_FILES)) { echo "$key => $val<br /> "; }
Put $_FILES Into A Session
I'm trying to get my $_FILES arrays into a session because I want to move the files later to a specific directory (ie after I get a result_id from a sql insert). No problem putting the variables in a session but I can't move $_SESSION['userfile']['tmp_name'] anymore. $_SESSION['userfile']['error'] is 0 so I don't really see what could be the problem....
$_FILES/forms
Is there any way of setting the $_FILES array without actually uploading a file through http upload? I ask because I want to send a file that already exists on my server to be handled by my script that deals with normal uploads. The reason the file has to be sent in the $_FILES array is that this is how the upload script receives and processes files and it is zend encoded so I can't edit it!
$_FILES Superglobal: Where Is The Filename
$_FILES superglobal does not work for me, i use php 4.1.1 if i look in $_REQUEST i can finde the path to the uploaded file, but how do i get the name and mime type of that file? thanks for any help
$_FILES[] - Upload Variable Name
Is there a predefined variable name for a file when you are uploading to a server? I need to know the actual file name, Is there a way or will i have to use REGEX to parse out the name from the end of the path?
Can't Upload File To $_FILES
I'm trying to figure out why I can't upload a file in php. I'm trying it locally on a windows XP machine running Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.1. That is I am running the browser/server on same machine to test with. I also tried it on a remote linux server, though in that case I'm not sure what the s config settings where, except that it does have PHP and I get the same results. Are there any releevant apache settings ? I have not come accross any. Below is my script, results, and config settings. =------------------------------------------------------ <html> <body> <?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') { ?> <form enctype="mutlipart/form-data" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ?>" > <input type="file" name="document"/> <input type="submit" value="Send File"/> </form> </body> </html> <?php } else { echo "FILE="; print_r($_FILES); echo "</br></br>POST="; print_r($_POST); } -------------------------------------------------------- on a post I get an empty $_FILES object and something in the $_POST variable from the above prints: FILE=Array ( ) POST=Array ( [document] =feedblitz.txt ) # my php config file has these settings which I also verified with phphinfo() ; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads. file_uploads = On ; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not ; specified). upload_tmp_dir = "c:playsoaptest"; ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files. upload_max_filesize = 5M
Clearing Out The $_FILES Variable
I posted yesterday and no one answered; I"m wondering if this list is having tech difficulties.... I'm having trouble with my $_FILES variable. What my program does is allow a person to have an image file on their web page. So if there is an upload, it processes it (resizes it if need be). If they choose to keep their old picture, it isn't supposed to do anything, but it still seems to be passing in a $_FILES variable ANYWAY! I did some wrangling to have it process the image based on another field, a checkbox that is checked showing the existing image and it indicates to keep it if it's on ($processsimage="no") But why is it still passing in a value for $_FILES['thefield'] anyway when there isn't anything in that field for upload? It poses a problem when they are adding a page that might not have an image on it (it's a content manager). I hope someone can help with this perplexing problem. I can't go back to using globals as I am on a quest to get away from using globals because it's a security risk, and I've been hacked already, and my ISP would like me to change my evil, global ways and so would i!
$_FILES[var][size] Question
I'm uploading a file to the server - I check the $_FIILES[var][size] variable to check for exceeding a certain limit (250KB in this case) _ I notice that when I try to upload files of 500KB or 900KB [size] holds the value and I can check it - however, if I try to upload a 2300KB file [size] is 0 - does anyone know what might be causing this? Why doesn't that large of a file also get recorded in the [size] variable?
$_FILES Does Not Work On Windows
I'm having a PHP problem. Whenever I use the $_FILES superglobal to upload files via a form, it never seems to work when I run it on any Windows system. However, when I run it on my Mac, the image uploads just fine with the same script. What could the problem be?
$_FILES['uploaded_file']['type']
I want to check the file type so I can add condtion to my image resize script. I have read that $_FILES['uploaded_file']['type'] is unreliable. Is there another way to determin the file type of a file before making copies of it?
Help With Str_replace & $_FILES Arrays Need To Loop?
Ok I am trying to get these loops figured out I have 10 files being uploaded- $_FILES['pic1-10'] I need to run str_replace on all 10 to eliminate any oddities " ","%20" to clean up the filenames before inserting names in db. foreach ($_FILES as $n) { $name=$n["name"] str_replace( " ", "",$name) now how do I get it read back into $_FILES['pic1']['name'] and continure on to pic2?
Full Local Path Of $_FILES
When processing a standard file upload form, is it possible to save the full local path of the file? If there is an arror on the form, I want to re-display the file name in the field when it reloads. This data doesn't seem to get posted. All the local path info is stripped off.
Fill $_FILES Argument From XML Parser
I've a function asking for a $_FILES argument: function insertarticle($particle,......,$pUserID,$pOptions, $files){ in this function I do add the record and then save the files in a subdirectory specific on some datas. This function is used by my "insert" form, letting the user to select images files to upload with <FILE> html tag. The files to upload are then passed to the $files like this: insertarticle(1884,......,4,$Options,$_FILES); for mantainance purpose, I avoid as much as possible to have the same code in 2 different pages. Also, using actually this function to add a record in the database (quite complex code) and saving files from a form, and using the same function to add records from an XML parser, I can't send images files to the function. My parser can save the images files on the server's directory, but how to pass $files parameters in order to save those files ? It's there any way to take the string containing the base64 image code (I do actually save it locally) and put it in a $_FILES array for passing it to the function ?
Access The $_FILES Array Without A Re-loading?
My user is uploading an image file with a files variable (userfile) in a form. After he's selected his image file, I want to be able to display it so that he can see what he's about to upload. Is there anyway I can access the $_FILES arrray so that I can get $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] so that I can find his image file so that I can then display it? - e.g. using javascript with an onclick or mouseover event. Without having to reload the script or load a new script?
$_FILES['File']['type'] Returns Nothing
I have an MP3 Upload site, but when a user logs in and uploads a file, more than half of the time the MP3's MIME type returns absolutely nothing! I don't think it's the code, because some of the music uploads well, it's just about 65% has no MIME! Any explanation?
$_FILES From The Server - Not Local Machine
I'm just playing with someone else's code and was wondering how to get details of a file that's already uploaded to my server into the $_FILES super global. the code I have is: ...$uploadedFileName = $_FILES['filename']['name']; if($_FILES['filename']['size'] > $maxSize) {... all the checks are done using this and I just want to parse all this info without the user having any control / knowledge of it at all. It's for an image upload script which has been built already, but I want lots of differing quality thumbnails to be generated, but the current code keeps asking the user to input size variables and path details to upload a file from their local machine.
File Field Validation $_FILES??

Any Reason Why $_FILES['userfile']['error'] Wouldn't Be Populated?
I am in the middle of writing an image upload script and am limiting the size of uploads via upload_max_filesize. This all seems to be working well, and if I try and upload a bigger file then I get an UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE sat in $_FILES['userfile']['error']. All hunkey dorey. However, in my testing there are one or two large files that cause problems. PHP appears to abort the upload early as it should, but when my script runs, $_FILES isn't populated at all?! I have tried to narrow down the difference in these file but I can't seem to find anything definate. All the ones that fail are AVI or WMV files if that gives any clue, but even if I rename them to MPG (others of which work ok), and check the MIME type being sent up has also changed to mpg, then they still fail as before. I have sent bigger and smaller files all ok, so it's not size. I can't see anything in the filename itself that would cause problems.
$_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] Dirname Missing Trailing Slash
I've beat my head every way I can think of against this wall. Maybe someone here just knows the answer. I'm testing an upload class on my laptop WAMP server. When I run the test script, everything is fine. When I put together my own form and test uploading the same file, it fails because the $_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] value is missing the trailing slash at the end of the temp dir name, so that the temp name looks like this: c:/wamp/tmpphp11.tmp instead of: c:/wamp/tmpphp11.tmp as in the packaged demo script. I know that this value is set in php.ini. But that can't be the problem as everything works fine in the demo script. As far as I can discern, this value -- the temp dir name -- is handled internally by PHP and not affected by the script, so I can't even check the value and add the slash if it's missing. So my question: does anyone know why the trailing slash is being dropped in my script? I've tried every variation I can think of. I even tried to replicate my error in the demo script by changing some of its form settings. I can't get the two script to do the same thing with this $_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] value, even though everything else should be equal. All I can figure is that it has something to do with the forms' x/html settings. The only other significant different between the two scripts is that mine posts to itself and the demo to a separate page. Anyway, if you can answer this for me, you'd really make my day! :)
PHP Session Is Empty And Session File Is Empty
I am trying to save a SESSION variable which looks to succeed because right after I print it out to verify it. I do so as follows: session_start(); <snip> $_SESSION['security_code'] = $code; The problem is that I submit a form on the same page and I need to check if the $_SESSION['security_code'] == $_POST['security_code'] however this condition is always false because $_SESSION['security_code'] is empty. I also checked the security files that are created in the PHP 'save_path' directory and it appears to be creating an empty session file. Can anyone suggest anything here? Also prior to the condition, I also do a session_start() and that doesn't help either. I got this code from a open source area and on that web site, if I test it it works fine. On my localhost it does not work. I'm not sure if I'm missing some configuration or whether PHP 5.2.2 has problems with sessions.
Post And Redirect With Post Data
The solution we have though up is the following: 1. The user fills in data in a form and hits submit - This submits (POST) to another page (redirect.php) 2. redirect.php adds more POST data to POST and then submits all this POST data to another page (offsite [payment portal]) The reason why we have to do this is for someone who knows our to read html source code, could easily find the sucessful page which will then do the processing we need to do on our side. Which means freebeis.
PHP Post, Then HTML Post?
Using PHP, I want to POST or GET some variables to a second php page. This, I already know how to do. However, on the second php page, I want to use a simple, standard HTML form using the standard form-submitting method such as: <form action="https://orderpage.ic3.com/hop/orderform.jsp" method="post"> whereupon both sets of variables --- the earlier variables that were POSTed or GETted to the second page, along with the standard form variables derived within the second page --- will be POSTed to the above URL. In the second page, might I actually translate the received variables into actual HTML code? For instance, if my first page POSTed the variable xyz to the second page, then might the following code on the second page receive that variable and then include it when the second page's "Submit" button is pressed? <? $xyz=$_POST['xyz']; ?> <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="xyz" value="<?=$_POST['xyz']?>" > Or how, otherwise, might this be done?
