uploading pictures into different folders

notaclue77

Hi everyone, this is probably a really simple thing to do but i'm struggling with it a bit. i'm trying to create a form containing a drop menu where by you can upload a picture and select from the drop down which folder you wish to put it in on your computer.

any suggestions would be great.

And after uploading let's check the content types. Mime tipe check is a good solution to check the files from users!

Make an upload folder,

and into 1     and    2    named folder:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<?
if ($_FILES AND $_POST["selectfolder"])
{
$selectfolder=$_POST["selectfolder"]; 
switch ($selectfolder)
{
case "1":
$target_path = "uploads/1/";
break; //e --> 1.php

case "2":
$target_path = "uploads/2/";
break; //e --> 1.php

case "":
$target_path = "";
break; //e --> 1.php
}

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']); 
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) 
{
    echo "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
} 
else
{
    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}
}
?>

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" />
Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" />
<br>
<select name="selectfolder">
  <option>Choose a folder</option>
  <option value="1">Christmas</option>
  <option value="2">New York</option>
</select>
<br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
