                $image=$_FILES['uploadgallery']['name'];// name given in input type
                $ext=substr(strchr($image,'.'),1);//it breaks the string in part so that format can be matched
                if($ext!='jpg' && $ext!='jpeg' && $ext!='png' && $ext!='gif' && $ext!='JPG' && $ext!='JPEG')
                {
