I'm trying to upload a pdf file using the $_FILES built in array

It gets stalled at this point and displays the echo

if(!ereg("image",$_FILES['pix']['type']))
{
echo "<b>File is not a picture. Please try another
file.</b><br>";
include("illustup.inc");
exit();

This is the content of the $_FILES array
Array ( [name] => 000.pdf [type] => application/pdf [tmp_name] =>
C:\PHP\uploadtemp\php2D.tmp [error] => 0 [size] => 26596 )

is it the 'type' thats wrong or the "image", I'm assuming I'm missing
something in the mime type.

If I try to load a gif file using the same script, it works fine.

Thanks in anticipation

Stephen
