Hi, the files themselves are available in the $_FILES array, but it's not as simple as that. may i recommend you start by copying the Examples 18-1 and 18-2 from this page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php Once you've got THAT code working smoothly and understand what's happening, THEN start modifying it to a 3-file form. I'd personally push forms through using POST method rather than get whenever possible -- especially when dealing with files... the manual does it this way too :) Justin on 12/01/03 12:18 PM, Kyle Babich (php@kyle.sent.com) wrote: > I just broke skin with php and I'm learning forms, which I'm not good > with at all.
