Uploader?

[cpugeek]

I am learning PHP ,and I am making a file uploader ,and I only want the following files allowed:

• .jpeg .jpe .gif .tiff .tif .png

The reason for the uploader is for a photo website gallerynote: the file should be restricted to 2 megabytes *any help appreciated

Try looking here http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp. There is a line there that grabs the content-type of the uploaded file:

$_FILES["file"]["type"]

You could check that value against a list of acceptable file types and decide whether or not you want to save the file or discard it.
