where,
$_FILES['file']['type'] is used to return the type of uploaded file.
move_uploaded_file() is used to upload the file.
You want to know about upload files in php.
if($type=='image/jpeg' || $type=='image/png' || $type=='image/gif' || $type=='image/pjpeg' ) is used to check the file type whether it is image or not. If it is image, then it is stored. Otherwise, it is not upload and also stored.

$up=move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],dirname($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']).'/oops/upload/image/'.$name);
$q=mysql_query("insert into image values('','".$name."')");
if($up && $q)
{
echo'image uploaded and stored';
