Hi I am new to php,
I had a form in my page to upload image and some data. And that image filed is not mandatory. I had done that script well and working well. But the problem is it always need a image ( that is not mandatory in my case ). The following is the code with me.. Kindly let me know which change i need to do for making that file field is not mandatory ...
$string = md5(microtime() * mktime());
$new = substr($type,0,1);
$ido = substr($string,0,6);
$id= $new.$ido;
$directory_self = str_replace(basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']), '', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
// make a note of the directory that will recieve the uploaded files
$uploadsDirectory = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $directory_self . "shopping/";
// make a note of the location of the upload form in case we need it
$uploadForm = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $directory_self . 'shopping.php';
// make a note of the location of the success page
$uploadSuccess ='shopping.php';
// name of the fieldname used for the file in the HTML form
$fieldname = 'file';
$errors = array(1 => 'php.ini max file size exceeded',
2 => 'html form max file size exceeded',
3 => 'file upload was only partial',
4 => 'no file was attached');
// check the upload form was actually submitted else print form
isset($_POST['Submit'])
or error('the upload form is neaded', $uploadForm);
// check for standard uploading errors
($_FILES[$fieldname]['error'] == 0)
or error($errors[$_FILES[$fieldname]['error']], $uploadForm);
// check that the file we are working on really was an HTTP upload
@is_uploaded_file($_FILES[$fieldname]['tmp_name'])
or error('not an HTTP upload', $uploadForm);
// validation... since this is an image upload script we
// should run a check to make sure the upload is an image
@getimagesize($_FILES[$fieldname]['tmp_name'])
or error('only image uploads are allowed', $uploadForm);
// make a unique filename for the uploaded file and check it is
// not taken... if it is keep trying until we find a vacant one
$md5 = md5(microtime() * mktime());
$string = substr($md5,0,5);
while(file_exists($uploadFilename = $uploadsDirectory.$string.'-'.$_FILES[$fieldname]['name']))
{
$string++;
}
$name = $string.'-'.$_FILES[$fieldname]['name'];
// now let's move the file to its final and allocate it with the new filename
@move_uploaded_file($_FILES[$fieldname]['tmp_name'], $uploadFilename)
or error('receiving directory insuffiecient permission', $uploadForm);
rename("shopping/" . $name, "shopping/" .$type."-".$name);
function error($error, $location, $seconds = 5)
{
header("Refresh: $seconds; URL=\"$location\"");

exit;
