Accepting Files

[riderz]

Who have the code to accept any files that get uploaded to site

when ppl upload pictures or downloads it must send a request for the owners to accept the incomming file

Use the vaildate rule... get it from a lava script

yup i coded this for my site, iv got a row called approved in the gallery table, when they upload it its set to default as 0, but when you validated it you set it to 1.

remember when you want to see the pic make sure u have it like WHERE approved = 1 so that it will only show images that hav been approved. this also helps to cut down on phpthumb memory, as you only have thumbs when you validate the picture onces its passed validation you dont need to place thumbs to view it....

[riderz]

so can staff view the file that get uploaded before validate it?

riderz, as crazybrumi said, WHERE approved = 0 is going to show you the non approved file. Then, and update to the table of downloads SET approved='1' WHERE id='$fileid' should work to Approve it.

Or even better. Create a secure up loader. All my sites has one which I coded myself.

why not share one then

if ($Submit){
if ($_FILES['image']['name']==''){
$error_msg = 'Please select a file';
$error = 1;
}

if (!$error){
$uploaddir = 'userimages/';
$file_name = rand(1,999).$_FILES['image']['name'];

if ($_FILES['image']['size'] >= 30721) {
$error_msg = "Your file is larger than 30KB.";
$upload_error = 1;
}
$file_type = "image";
$image_type = $_FILES['image']['type'];
$pos = strpos($image_type, $file_type);

if ($pos === false) {
$error_msg = "You cannot upload files of this type";
$upload_error = 1;
}

$file_info = getimagesize($_FILES['image']['tmp_name']);

if(empty($file_info)) {
$error_msg = "The uploaded file doesn't seem to be an image.";
$upload_error = 1;
}

if (!$upload_error) {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $uploaddir.$file_name);
// YOUR MYSQL QUERY GOES HERE
if ($res) $error_msg = "Your file was uploaded sucessfully";
else $error_msg = "Error occured, please try again";
}
}
}


That is just a simple uploader to make sure that only images is uploaded. You can go further and allow all file types but then hide the upload directory and or make files only down loadable. I do both.

If anyone want the any file type up loader with the only down loadable script, make me an offer. I am running a business after all.

PS : The script above is only the upload part and does not include the HTML/XHTML Form
