Not quite sure what's happening here on the user end... Does the user have to specify an "Upload Type" for the CFSwitch Expression variable? Then the validation is run against their choice and the file they are attempting to upload?

You could also add another switch that evaluates mime type ... Which I assume you are already doing, hence the need for the list. Kind regards, Martyn <cfswitch expression="#UploadType#" > <cfcase value="Image" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "gif,jpg" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="Flash" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "swf" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="PDF" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "pdf" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="Movie" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "mpg,mpeg,avi,mov,rm,ra,ram" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="Audio" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "mp3,wav" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="Zip" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "zip" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="File" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "csv,txt,xls,doc" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="MSWord" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "doc" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="MSExcel" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "csv,xls" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="MSPowerpoint" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "ppt" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="MSAccess" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "mdb" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="StyleSheet" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "css" ></cfcase> <cfcase value="FlashVideo" ><cfset lst_Extensions = "flv" ></cfcase> <cfdefaultcase><cfset lst_Extensions = "gif,jpg" ></cfdefaultcase> </cfswitch> <cfif ListFindNoCase(lst_Extensions,extension) > <cfset valid = true > <cfelse> <cfset valid = false > </cfif> <cfif valid EQ true > <!--- process ---> <cfelse> <!--- error ---> </cfif> -----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 25, 2006 12:50 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Mime Type for File Upload Need to specify the CFFILE "Accept" attributes for .doc and .pdf. What would those be? I know Accept = "application/msword" would accept Word docs, but would they be limited .doc filetype? And what about .pdf. application or text or ??? I want to limit uploads to .doc and .pdf only.
