Hi,
How can i check if the uploaded file size is not greater than 15mb?
Thank you in advance:)
Good morning,
You need to set the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size directives in your php.ini to the same values, anything above 15.
Depends on your host and if you have access to change the php.ini settings.
Kind regards,
cL.
yes, I already change to this size 40M,so it means max uploaded size is 40mb am i right?, so in my server script this is how i checked
if($_FILES['file']['size'] > ){
}
this is where is stock,how do i compare so that i can limit only to 15mb file size.
Thank you in advance.
I usually create a constant variable called MAX_FILE_SIZE and set it’s value equal to the maximum file size allowed (in Bytes) and then compare $_FILES[‘file’][‘size’] against the constant and see whether or not it is greater in size than the constant.
For example, you could change your code to this:
define("MAX_FILE_SIZE", 41943040);
if($_FILES['file']['size'] > MAX_FILE_SIZE)
{
//file too large in size, send them back to form or something else
}
else
{
//file size ok, proceed with form process.
}
You could always add a hidden field to your form containing that value.
Kind regards,

Hi can i aks how did you get this 41943040 ?
Thank you in advance.
Good evening,
That is the equivalent to 40M in Bytes.
This is how I came to that conclusion
