Title: Detect PDF was uploaded
Post by: dtobias on February 21, 2007, 06:27:20 pm

Hello,

I need to be able to detect that the file uploaded was a PDF.  I have tried to use the is_document() function, but that does seem to apply to PDFs.  Is there a built in function to determine that the uploaded file was a PDF?

Thanks

is_document() should work for pdfs. If it doesn't then check if the mime type matches application/pdf

Thanks for the quick reply.  How do I check the MIME type?  Is there a single function to call that will return the MIME type?

Thanks

Either call cpg_get_type(filename) or examine the filename for yourself.
