This is what i read in php.net

http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php

$_FILES

The mime type of the file, if the browser provided this information. An example would be "image/gif". This mime type is however not checked on the PHP side and therefore don't take its value for granted.

so in your condition

if($_FILES['txtFile']['type']=="application/pdf" && $_FILES['txtFile']['size']< ($upload_file_size*1048576)){

try removing the check for

i dont really think thats the rpoblem cos im doing the samething in another page as well and it works fine.its not going to this line even

if($_POST['submit'] && $_FILES['txtFile']['name'])

so that means its not reading the value from the field

hmm how about you give a try like this..

if (isset($_POST['submit']) && $_FILES['txtFile']['name'] != "")

thnx that worked:)
