GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
hi i am using the imageshack api (xml) and i get an error when i try to
upload png and bmp files

the error i get it:
wrong file type :application/octet-stream

i dont know why cause gif and jpeg are ok..

i am using it in PHP via cURL

$data['key'] = API_KEY;
    $data['public'] = "yes";
    $data['xml'] = "yes";
    $data['fileupload'] = '@'.$dest; 

    $curl = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://www.imageshack.us/upload_api.php');
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 600);
    /*curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);*/
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
    $result = curl_exec($curl);
    curl_close($curl);

unfortunately, PHP/CURL does not allow to set a content type for uploaded file 
(the 
trick that possible in command line CURL: 
fileupload=@filename.png;type=image/png)

I suggest you to use PHP library from this project instead of CURL, it allows 
to set 
content type during the upload.

ImageShack.us used to guess which file type is uploaded.
Now it's unable to detect .png and .bmp
Here's what's returned when uploading a .png file

 Wrong file type detected for file guybrush-mi1-01.png:application/octet-stream
