This is blatantly wrong. PHP does not automatically remove any uploaded .tmp file from the temporary directory. PHP 5.3.1 and 5.3.6 were tested specifically to confirm this behavior is not as documented. Test script: --------------- test.php, placed on website: <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input name="myfile" type="file" /> <input type="submit" /> </form> Expected result: ---------------- While monitoring the temporary directory, essentially nothing should happen. Actual result: -------------- Each click of the Submit button causes an additional file to be added to the temporary directory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54951&edit=1
