Don't you need to use $HTTP_POST_FILES array because you have register_globals off? Amanda McComb wrote:

I am having a problem with uploading a file from a form. I changed the permission on the directory, but I am still getting an error. Here is my error: Copy failed./home/vencel/www/images/apt/company_logo/14Update Failed! It looks like it's not finding the file type.

<FORM METHOD="post" ACTION=<? echo $PHP_SELF ?>> <table> <TR> <td colspan = 2><B>Use the <i>Browse</i> button to locate your file on your computer or local network.</B></td></tr>

                    <tr>
<td>Company Logo File:      </td><td><input type="file" name="photo"

size="30"></td></tr> <tr> <td colspan=2 align=center><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Add"></td> </tr> </table> </FORM> Any ideas?
