Validate That Input Type="file" Has Been Selected

Recommended Posts

I have a form with an input field of type="file" name="img1" id="img1".

 

When the form is submitted, I would like to make sure the user selected a file before my script continues.

 

I've tried:

 

 

if(!isset($_POST['img1'])){

$message="An image file was not selected.";

}

 

 

...but that isn't working.

 

What am I missing?
