[Resolved] Why does form upload field always indicate 0?

[kilbey1]

I'm posting some code below, with code commented out, that is confusing the heck out of me. I'm attempting to validate if a file has been chosen for attachment in an email form, but it always returns 0 or none, no matter what type of file I choose. Can anyone point out my mistake?

	print_r($HTTP_POST_FILES);

// Read POST request params into global vars
$id      	= $_POST['id'];
//$to 		= "[e-mail]";
$to 		= "[e-mail]";
$subject 	= "Web Application: " . $_POST['jobinfo'] . " (" . $_POST['reqnum'] . ")";
$name      	= $_POST['name'];
$phone   	= $_POST['phone'];
$email 		= $_POST['email'];
$addlinfo 	= $_POST['addlinfo'];

// Obtain file upload vars
$fileatt      = $_FILES['fileatt']['tmp_name'];
$fileatt_size = $_FILES['fileatt']['size'];
$fileatt_type = $_FILES['fileatt']['type'];
$fileatt_name = $_FILES['fileatt']['name'];

$headers = "From: $name";


//Validate all fields are filled in first
if ($name <= "") {
	$warning = "Please enter your name."; 
}
else if ($email <= "") {
	$warning = "Please enter your email."; 
}
//else if ($fileatt_size == 0 || $fileatt = 'none') {
//	$warning = "Please attach your resum&eacute;."; 
//}

if ($warning) {// If we've set a message with a warning about their form entry... 
   echo $warning;
   appform();
}
else { //no warnings
	//now look to see what type of file is being uploaded
/*
	if($userfile_type != 'application/msword') { 
		echo "This is not a valid file type (not .doc).";
		exit;
	} else { 
		echo "This is a valid file type (.doc).";
		exit;
	}
*/   	

Thanks so much,

Ok, I changed this around. I have no idea what happened, but I reverted back to an older version. Now it's reverting to 'Please Attach Your Resume' even if I attach something - anything!

	print_r($HTTP_POST_FILES);

if ($name <= "") {
	$warning = "Please go back and enter your name."; 
}
else if ($email <= "") {
	$warning = "Please go back and enter your email."; 
}
else if ($fileatt_size == '0' || $fileatt = 'none') {
	$warning = "Please go back and attach your resum&eacute;."; 
}


if ($warning) {// If we've set a message with a warning about their form entry... 
   ?>
<table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">
<table width="">
<tr><td>   

<?php echo $warning; ?>
</td></tr>
<tr>
  <td>
    <div align="right">
      <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function back()
{    history.go(-1);
}
//-->
      </SCRIPT>
      <A HREF="javascript:back()"> <img src="images/buttons_back.jpg" alt="Back" width="41" height="17" border="0"> </A> </div></td>
</tr>
  </table>
   <?
}

if (!$warning) {	
...do stuff to send email through

Never mind, it's fixed. 🙂 Syntax was:
else if ($fileatt_size == '0' || $fileatt == 'none')

Thanks for testing it out,
