I have an audio upload function that uploads music that the user selects. However, some of the files shows they are in the correct format, but the uploader says that the file I am trying to upload is not correct.
My CodeIgniter config is as follows:
$config['allowed_types'] = 'mp3|wav|m4a|wma';
I use the following to get the format of the audio:
$ext = end(explode(".", $_FILES["userfile"]["name"]));
When I echo $ext out, it shows mp3, but the uploaded returns with this error:
The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.
When I use an audio converter (I use Freemake) to convert the file to mp3 again, the uploader allows the file, so I am not sure if the file displays mp3 but is still the old format on the file system.
Any information/help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx in advance.
UPDATE
My PHP upload code looks like this:
$entry_num = $this -> input -> post('entry_num');
$location = $this -> input -> post('location');
$foldername = "./music/$location";
if (!file_exists($foldername))
{
mkdir($foldername, 0777, true);
}
$ext = end(explode(".", $_FILES["userfile"]["name"]));
$config['upload_path'] = $foldername.'/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'mp3|wav|m4a|wma';
$config['file_name'] = $entry_num.'.'.$ext;
$config['overwrite'] = TRUE;
$this -> load -> library('upload', $config);
if (!$this -> upload -> do_upload('userfile'))
{
$errors = array('error' => $this -> upload -> display_errors());
$return = implode(" ",$errors);
}
My View looks like this: HTML
<div class="control-group" id="load-music">
<label for="grouping_style" class="control-label">Load MP3 Music</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="file" name="userfile">
</div>
