Baisicly I'm using this filemanager script, and I want it to be able to accept photos, movies etc. By default it only accepts excel/word docs etc. I've modified the mimetypes accordingly, or so I've thought. But it still says that those file types are unaccepted. Take a look at the code and lemme know how you'd do it:

<?php
/*
* Filename: fileman_config.php
* Author: Adam Morton, adam@tux.appstate.edu
* Description: This file contains the configuration variables for the
* fileman module.
*/

/* Directory to store and retrieve uploaded files. Last forward slash is required. */
$upload_directory = "./mod/fileman/files/";

/* Maximum number of files allowed for upload at one time */
$max_batch_upload = 4;

/* Maximum file size in bytes */
$max_file_size = 200000;

/* Allowed file types for upload.
Default array:
$allowed_types = "application/msword, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/vnd.ms-excel, text/plain, application/pdf, application/x-zip-compressed";
Allows:
MS Word Documents, MS Power Point Presentations, MS Excel Documents, Plain Text Files, PDF Documents, and ZIP files.
*/
$allowed_types = "application/msword, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/vnd.ms-excel, text/plain, application/pdf, application/x-zip-compressed";

?>

wouldn't you just have to adjust this portion of the code?

here are some image types:

image/bmp
image/x-bmp
image/cmu-raster
image/x-cmu-raster
image/cur
image/x-cur
image/ico
image/x-ico
image/jpeg
image/x-jpeg
image/jpg
image/x-jpg
image/pcx
image/x-pcx
image/pict
image/x-pict
image/png
image/x-png
image/psd
image/x-psd
image/tga
image/x-tga
image/tif
image/x-tif
image/tiff
image/x-tiff
image/xbm
image/x-xbm
image/xpm
image/x-xpm

i don't know what the types for movies would be though....

I tried that actually, and I had a complete list of common mime types on this computer somewhere, although I'm loathe to find it now. But I ended up scrapping the damn script.

well, at least i tried to help you...
