Client specify an image > path in a web form. > 1. This mailing list is for the development of PHP, not for questions about how to use it. Any further questions along this line should be directed to php-general@lists.php.net. 2. Have you looked at the manual: http://www.php.net/manual/html/features.file-upload.html That section covers file uploads pretty well. About the only thing that is not covered there is how to allow the user to specify the image path, which you can do with a simple text field. Just make sure you check what then enter before you use it. You wouldn't want them to upload a new copy of /etc/passwd, for example. You will also need to make sure that upload_tmp_dir in your php.ini file is set to a directory writable by the user your web server runs as. (usually nobody) See: http://www.php.net/manual/html/configuration.html IF you still have questions after reading up on this in the manual, please direct them to the php-general list.
