Question

Here is my code

if ($_FILES['foto']['size'] > 200000) die ('file too big');
if($_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/pjpeg" ||
$_FILES['foto']['type'] !=="image/jpeg" || $_FILES['foto']['type']
!=="image/gif")  die ('file not allowed!');

no matter what i upload it always showing “file not allowed”. It works fine if i delete the file checking part.

I wonder where are the mistakes.

Thanks

var dump
string(10) “image/jpeg”

This is a contradiction (Always False):

$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/pjpeg" ||
$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/jpeg" || 
$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/gif"

Since for the whole statement to be true $_FILES['foto']['type'] Must be equal to “image/pjpeg”, “image/jpeg”, and “image/gif” at the same time.

You mean to be using && instead of ||, so you get:

$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/pjpeg" &&
$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/jpeg" &&
$_FILES['foto']['type'] !== "image/gif"
