Hello, All -
I'm a big fan of the uploadForm available from this site. It's allowed me to provide limited front-end access for users, giving them the chance to upload images and files, etc. without having to negotiate the CMSB back-end.
There are, however, a couple of things I still need to fix. The most important amongst them are 2 show-stopping errors:
1) When someone tries to upload an image that is too big...
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 132907008) (tried to allocate 19204 bytes) in /homepages/cmsb/lib/image_functions.php on line 83
2) When someone tries to paste too much text into an info box...
MySQL Error: Data too long for column 'info2' at row 1 - in myFile.php on line 83 by mysql_update()
In both instances is there any way for me to intervene before the script goes bang?
:oS

Hi Perch
You can error checks on the file upload to stop the script if the file is too large. The relevant PHP function is this: http://php.net/manual/en/function.filesize.php
You can also check the string length of the info2 input and, again, stop the script if it exceeds a certain amount.
