Is there any other method to upload audio files?..because it takes around 4 to 5 mins...

Hi ,

Thanks 4 ur reply...

it works fine for all (images, WMA)....when i change the below code..

$_FILES['tphoto']['type'] == 'audio/wma'

....

prob only for MP3 files...

if you check against that type only, its obvious that script will allow only that file type.
Maybe you are looking for "audio/x-mpeg-3" as file type.

Hi ..

I m sorry....

when i m write the if condition..its not working for all types..

if (($_FILES["tphoto"]["type"] == "audio/wma")){

with out condition it works fine except for MP3....

network18 15 Practically a Master Poster · Answer 8 · 2009-11-04T13:31:14+00:00

By using this "if loop " , you actually what is the file type, and if the file type is the specified one then allow the process else do something else.
I think why to use it, must be clear to you by this now.
And you saying when you not using this if loop you are able to upload all the files except the MP3, maybe with this MP3 file you are violating the file size limit.
echo your file element and post it's contents here with this file

try with another mp3 file having small size and post your entire code here.
and you seem to be confused, first decide which file types you want to restrict and which file types you want to allow.accordingly we will proceed with the code.

hi...

this is my code...its working fine for all(including MP3)...but upto 5MB files only uploaded..8,9,11MB files are not uploaded..

$aid =  mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['albumname']);
$song =  mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['song']);
$singers =  mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['singers']);
$tname = mysql_real_escape_string($_FILES["tphoto"]["name"]);
$ttmp_name = $_FILES["tphoto"]["tmp_name"];

 //Audio File Uploading....  
//if (($_FILES["tphoto"]["type"] == "*.MP3")){ //not working when i use if condition..
 $dir="../../music/$aid";
 move_uploaded_file($ttmp_name,"$dir"."/"."$tname");
 

$sql="insert into music_songs values('','$aid','$song','$singers','$tname')";
$res=mysql_query($sql)or die(mysql_error());
 
//}

network18 15 Practically a Master Poster · Answer 14 · 2009-11-04T15:43:59+00:00

Again you seem to be confused.This time you are having problem with all the file types.
The max size can be set in the php.ini as, search for "upload_max_filesize" .It may have default value of 2MB at the moment edit it to have whatever you like.

Yes, you can do that by function ini_set()-

//This is your new size
$new_size = '3M';
ini_set('upload_max_filesize',$new_size);

most of the properties in the php.ini can be set during runtime using ini_set() function.The new values last there till the script executes.
And don't worry, nothing is stupid, until you don't know it:)
its always good to clarify the doubts here.

Does it solve your problem..you can supress any warning with prefixing '@' to the function like @ini_set(), eventhough i never recommend doing that.

since you carrying the lots of data in post, your default value of '8Mb' for "post_max_value" is exceeded.
So you need to set this variable to the higher value too, in the similar way i told you set the max_file_upload.

$new_limit = '10Mb';
ini_set('post_max_value',$new_limit);

Hi

this is my code...

error_reporting(E_ALL^E_NOTICE);
 $new_size = '50M';
@ini_set('upload_max_filesize',$new_size);
 $new_limit = '20Mb';
 @ini_set('post_max_value',$new_limit);

@ini_set('upload_max_filesize',$new_size);

 @ini_set('post_max_value',$new_limit);

If the warning as below -

PHP Warning: POST Content-Length of 9484737 bytes exceeds the limit of 8388608 bytes in Unknown on line 0

it mentions that your post carries 9484737 bytes i.e. 9.04535MB of data.So setting new_limit to the 50MB is still not enough.
Increase it to fare enough as -

$new_limit = '100M';
