In my site visitors can upload photos, and of course I have the typical
file type validation. I only allow files that are jpegs as seen in this
script, but when I attempt to upload jpegs with that same file type, it
gives me the error message I programmed if the content type is not
image/jpeg, but in he same error message, the system tells you what file
type it is if it isn''t image/jpeg, and my error read: "Only JPEG
files
are allowed. This file is image/jpeg ." I don''t get it. If the
system
confirmed it was an image/jpeg, then how come @file_type ==
''image/jpeg''
doesn''t return true, and return no error? What''s wrong with my
code?
@file_type = params[:account][:picture].content_type
if @file_type == ''image/jpeg''
# good
else
if @error == true
@error_content += '' Furthermore, only JPEG files are allowed. This
file is #{@file_type}.''
else
@error_content += "Only JPEG files are allowed. This file is
#{@file_type}."
end
@error = true
end
Thanks,
Ben
