Up til today there has never been a RFC proposing the usage of such named form field, nor has there been a browser actually checking its existance or content, or preventing anything.
The PHP documentation implies that a browser may alert the user that his upload is too big - this is simply wrong. Please note that using this PHP feature is not a good idea. A form field can easily be changed by the client. If you have to check the size of a file, do it conventionally within your script, using a script-defined integer, not an arbitrary number you got from the HTTP client which always must be mistrusted from a security standpoint. In regards to the dud filename being sent, a very simple way to check for this is to check the file size as well as the file name.
Instead you have to walk the array and check every single damn entry - which can be quite difficult since the values may be nested if you use input elements named like "foo[bar][bla]". Seems like PHP just introduced you to yet another common pitfall.
I noticed that on PHP When uploading a file, it is common to visit the php. A possibly cause for this is that the upload was cancelled by the user pressed ESC, etc. Hope this helps someone. Any number that you specify above that results in a failed upload without any informative error describing what went wrong. Filestack is an advanced file upload API and service that securely stores files in the cloud.
Why use a third party like Filestack over building it yourself? By using a third party you no longer need to deal with the scaling, security, and maintenance that comes with building your own file upload system. This can free you up to focus on building other important parts of your application.
And you can get started for free. Filestack has a free plan that handles up to monthly uploads with 1GB storage and 1GB bandwidth. If you need to go beyond that amount, they offer pricing that scales with use. Go to their registration page and after you log in, get the API Key, which you will use in the later steps. For example, if they wanted to upload from a URL or from social media. Simply replace the contents of index. Then, open your page and then upload a file using the upload widget.
After uploading, you should be able to log into your Filestack dashboard and see your newly uploaded file:.
