[SOLVED] Generate error if $fileAttachment exceeds 2MB

[Masteries]

I'm trying to generate an error on the contact form if the user has uploaded a file that exceeds 2MB. I added the following line to ContactController.php:

 

 

else if ($fileAttachment['size'] > 2097152)
   $this->errors[] = Tools::displayError('File size exceeds limit');

 

Unfortunately, this did not work (but there was no "Internal 500 SERVER ERROR"). What am I doing wrong here?

did you debug this by displaying or recording what the $fileAttachment['size'] returns?

[vekia]

$fileAttachment['size'] by default does not exist

there is $file_attachment instead

 

you created $fileAttachment variable and assigned to it array of file details from Tools::fileAttachment('fileUpload') method?

Oh I see and yes that's what I did. I see that [name] and [error] exists, which class is responsible for these properties? I was thinking I can perhaps add a property as well.

function: fileAttachment is available in: classes/Tools.php

Thank you! Solved this by adding the following line in Tools.php (after line 2922):

$fileAttachment['size'] = $_FILES[$input]['size'];
