I'm trying to achieve, an image based off file extension, i have searched the forum for hours and looked at examples, but none were similar to mine.
i am using php, and CCS5
switch ($Container->file_name->GetValue())
{
case ".gif":
case ".jpg":
$image = "image/picture.jpg";
break;
case ".pdf":
$image = "image/acrobat.jpg";
break;
case ".doc":
$image = "image/document.jpg";
break;
default:
$image = "image/noFileType.jpg";
}
$Container->file_name->SetValue($image);
the code above just displays the default image. it would work like that if i knew the file name exactly, but i dont.
is there a way to use: case " *.jpg ": ... ?? an asterisk to be ALL then ext ??
i know that this is a regular expression for file types, and i can add more...
/^.*\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)$/i
or
preg_match('/^.*\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)$/i');
how could i format the case statement to only check extension, ( i might have about 30 file types)
should i just store the reg expr in a var, then call it in the case statement ??

You can use regex, but I think there is simpler way..
Check php.net for explode function, or for strpos and substr functions
To make it even easier I would set it up like so:
1. use explode to get the extension part
2. on server have N amount of files all named so: gif.jpg, jpg.jpg, png,jpg, pdf.jpg
3. Finally just set the name of $image to YOUR_EXPLODED_EXTENSION.jpg
4. Check if file_exists on server and if not use
$image = "image/noFileType.jpg";

Thanks Lucius, your right, EXPLODE is the way to go.
explode it to 2 vars
1.) filename
2.) extension
then use case->imageType
how would i use EXPLODE in this example, outside the switch or in a case statement ??

I correct myself 
Use this: $ext = pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
Use it before switch and then switch $ext.

i tried Lucius, what am i doing wrong....
//Custom Code @21-2A29BDB7
$checkExt = explode(".", file_name); // file_name is the name of my label
switch ($Container->file_name->GetValue($checkExt))
{
case ".pdf":
$image = "images/acrobat.png";
break;
case ".gif":
$image = "images/image.png";
break;
case ".exe":
$image = "images/application.png";
break;
case ".docx":
$image = "images/word.png";
break;
case ".zip":
$image = "images/zip.png";
break;
// if none display this
default:
$image = "images/info.png";
}
$Container->file_name->SetValue($image);
//End Custom Code
it only displays the default image

i looked at the code for get original filename, can i use and modify this code in my event ?
//Get Original Filename @21-10353880
$control_value = $Component->GetValue();
$original_filename = CCGetOriginalFileName($control_value);
$Component->SetValue($original_filename);
//End Get Original Filename
ok, now i got it to display just the extensions... ?
like this...
$control_value = $Component->GetValue();
$original_filename = CCGetOriginalFileName($control_value);
$path_parts = pathinfo($original_filename);
$Component->SetValue($path_parts['extension']);

** I DID IT !! - (all by myself..  )
here's my final code and steps...
change label to image control, then BeforeShow->Custom Code
//Custom Code @21-2A29BDB7
$control_value = $Component->GetValue();
$original_filename = CCGetOriginalFileName($control_value);
$path_parts = pathinfo($original_filename);
$ext = $Component->SetValue($path_parts['extension']);
switch ($Container->file_name->GetValue($ext))
{
case "gif":
case "png":
$image = "images/image.png";
break;
case "pdf":
$image = "images/acrobat.png";
break;
case "docx":
$image = "images/word.png";
break;
case "zip":
$image = "images/zip.png";
break;
default:
$image = "images/page_white_text.png";
}
$Container->file_name->SetValue($image);
//End Custom Code
now it takes the extension, and displays the correct image.
After i finish up what i am working on, i'm gonna create a thread that will help ALL of you. (You will thank me..)
imma change it to image link, and when clicked open file in new window.
*** my question is, the uploaded files are in: .. files/ $filename
what would the href type and source be ??

$control_value = $Component->GetValue();

switch ($Container->file_name->GetValue($ext))
