[Resolved] Validation of File Attachment in Form

[kilbey1]

I've got a handy-dandy form to allow a file upload. However, there's no validation to see if it's empty. I'm using code like

if ($name <= "")
	$warning = "Please enter your name."; 

to check for form fields. However, the filatt field never seems to be empty, either using EMPTY or "". IE:

else if (empty($fileatt)) 
	$warning = "Please attach your resumé."; 

allows my form to always be submitted. What should I use instead?

PS. Btw, can someone point me in the right direction for limiting to .doc, .txt or .rtf extensions on files?
