Try this:

The only problem is that the file must complete the upload process, which
could be a pain...


<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="file" destination="tempdir"
nameconflict="MAKEUNIQUE">

<cfif file.clientfileext eq "gif">
        <cffile action="MOVE" source="#File.ServerDirectory#\#File.ServerFile#"
destination="directory\#file.clientfile#">
<cfelse>
        <cffile action="DELETE" file="#File.ServerDirectory#\#File.ServerFile#">
</cfif>

Subject: Advanced CFCATCH Exception Types


I would like to trap a CFFILE error using CFTRY/CFCATCH if the user submits
a bad file type. I only want to allow them to upload .gif files.

I can use the CFCATCH TYPE="Any" to trap it, but I was hoping that I could
trap specifically for a bad file type.

I noticed that there are a whole slew of "advanced" exception types starting
with COM.* listed in the documentation, but I can't find one for a bad file
type.

Can one of those advanced types or a regular type be used other than "Any"?

Thanks,
Dave.
