forms - Secure PHP File Upload Script

Question

I have asked this question twice i think, but this is the first time i have gotten close to this. I am planning on allowing users to upload and download their files (.pdf, .doc, .exl, .ppt, .png, .jpg, .gif).

Will these tips be suffice:

Also, is there a script I can utilize, i am new to php.

Answer 1

a late response, but i think your script should be based on this: http://blog.insicdesigns.com/2009/01/secure-file-upload-in-php-web-applications/

it covers all aspects of security and explains all valid points. I hope this helps.
