parse error, unexpected T BOOLEAN_OR in

[adammc]

Hi Guys,

I got the error below when running this code. I am trying validate that both files (picture & thumb) are jpg or gif images.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_BOOLEAN_OR in .....

// Validate the type. Should be jpeg, jpg, or gif.
		$allowed = array ('image/gif', 'image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/pjpeg');
		if (in_array($_FILES['picture']['type'], $allowed)) || (in_array($_FILES['thumb']['type'], $allowed))
		{



//  If all is ok begin picture uploading

Can anyone offer any advice, thank you 🙂

if (in_array($_FILES['picture']['type'], $allowed)) || (in_array($_FILES['thumb']['type'], $allowed)) 

Count parentheses: where does the if statement end? Not where you think it ends, where it does end. Hint: The || occurs after that point.

Thanks for the reply, a silly mistake :o

The error didnt occur when I ran the script again however...

If one of the files being uploaded is a gif or jpeg & the other is anything else (txt, pdf) it is not exiting the script?

Its going straight onto - // If all is ok begin picture uploading

I tried uploading 2 txt files and it exited the script fine!

Got it !!! 😃

I used "&&"

if (in_array($_FILES['picture']['type'], $allowed) && in_array($_FILES['thumb']['type'], $allowed)) 

thanks for your help in getting me there.
