//$name = $_FILES["myfile4"]["name"];
$type = $_FILES["myfile"] ["type"];
$size = $_FILES["myfile"] ["size"];
$tempd = $_FILES["myfile"] ["tmp_name"];
$error = $_FILES["myfile"] ["error"];
if ($error > 0)
die ("Error uploading file code $error.");
else
{
if ($type == "image/png" || $size > 500000) //file conditions
{
die ("File exceeds maximum file size limit of 0.5mb, saving the file as a JPG or GIF will reduce the overall size of the file");
}

echo "Upload Completed";
