POST method uploads
This feature lets people upload both text and binary files.
With PHP's authentication and file manipulation functions,
you have full control over who is allowed to upload and
what is to be done with the file once it has been uploaded.
PHP is capable of receiving file uploads from any RFC-1867
compliant browser.

upload_max_filesize,

PHP also supports PUT-method file uploads as used by
Netscape Composer and W3C's
Amaya clients. See the PUT Method
Support for more details.
Приклад #1 File Upload Form
A file upload screen can be built by creating a special form which
looks something like this:
<!-- The data encoding type, enctype, MUST be specified as below -->
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="__URL__" method="POST">
<!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field -->
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />
<!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array -->
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>
The __URL__ in the above example should be replaced,
and point to a PHP file.
The MAX_FILE_SIZE hidden field (measured in bytes) must
precede the file input field, and its value is the maximum filesize accepted by PHP.
This form element should always be used as it saves users the trouble of
waiting for a big file being transferred only to find that it was too
large and the transfer failed. Keep in mind: fooling this setting on the
browser side is quite easy, so never rely on files with a greater size
being blocked by this feature. It is merely a convenience feature for
users on the client side of the application. The PHP settings (on the server
side) for maximum-size, however, cannot be fooled.
Зауваження:
Be sure your file upload form has attribute enctype="multipart/form-data"
otherwise the file upload will not work.
The global $_FILES will contain all the uploaded file information.
Its contents from the example form is as follows. Note that this assumes the use of
the file upload name userfile, as used in the example
script above. This can be any name.
- $_FILES['userfile']['name']
-
The original name of the file on the client machine.
- $_FILES['userfile']['type']
-
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.
- $_FILES['userfile']['size']
-
The size, in bytes, of the uploaded file.
- $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']
-
The temporary filename of the file in which the uploaded file
was stored on the server.
- $_FILES['userfile']['error']
-
The error code
associated with this file upload.
- $_FILES['userfile']['full_path']
-
The full path as submitted by the browser. This value does not always contain a real directory structure, and cannot be trusted.
Available as of PHP 8.1.0.
Files will, by default be stored in the server's default temporary
directory, unless another location has been given with the upload_tmp_dir directive in
php.ini. The server's default directory can
be changed by setting the environment variable
TMPDIR in the environment in which PHP runs.
Setting it using putenv() from within a PHP
script will not work. This environment variable can also be used
to make sure that other operations are working on uploaded files,
as well.
Приклад #2 Validating file uploads
See also the function entries for is_uploaded_file()
and move_uploaded_file() for further information. The
following example will process the file upload that came from a form.
<?php
$uploaddir = '/var/www/uploads/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
echo '<pre>';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
}
echo 'Here is some more debugging info:';
print_r($_FILES);
print "</pre>";
?>
The PHP script which receives the uploaded file should implement
whatever logic is necessary for determining what should be done
with the uploaded file. You can, for example, use the
$_FILES['userfile']['size'] variable
to throw away any files that are either too small or too big. You
could use the
$_FILES['userfile']['type'] variable
to throw away any files that didn't match a certain type criteria, but
use this only as first of a series of checks, because this value
is completely under the control of the client and not checked on the PHP
side.
Also, you could use $_FILES['userfile']['error']
and plan your logic according to the error codes.
Whatever the logic, you should either delete the file from the
temporary directory or move it elsewhere.
If no file is selected for upload in your form, PHP will return
$_FILES['userfile']['size'] as 0, and
$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] as none.
The file will be deleted from the temporary directory at the end
of the request if it has not been moved away or renamed.
Приклад #3 Uploading array of files
PHP supports HTML array feature
even with files.
<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p>Pictures:
<input type="file" name="pictures[]" />
<input type="file" name="pictures[]" />
<input type="file" name="pictures[]" />
<input type="submit" value="Send" />
</p>
</form>
<?php
foreach ($_FILES["pictures"]["error"] as $key => $error) {
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
$tmp_name = $_FILES["pictures"]["tmp_name"][$key];
// basename() may prevent filesystem traversal attacks;
// further validation/sanitation of the filename may be appropriate
$name = basename($_FILES["pictures"]["name"][$key]);
move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, "data/$name");
}
}
?>
File upload progress bar can be implemented using Session Upload Progress.
