Re: Whats wrong here?

Yes, it is a form field. I actually have a form that is prone to user error. I have an upload file field and then a file name field. This allows the end user to screw up, but with my limited php ability I was just trying to get something to work. The end goal is to upload a file to a certain directory and retain the original filename. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Walsh" <TWalsh@achieversusa.com> To: "'Shane McBride'" <php@riversidedesigns.net>; "Php-General" <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Friday, September 08, 2000 2:52 PM Subject: RE: [PHP] Whats wrong here? > Shane, > > Is $image an uploaded image from an html form? > > If that is the case then $image is the system pointer for the file... > $image_name is the actual name of the file which was uploaded. > > HTH > > Tom Walsh > http://www.designgeek.com > > > $new_file_name = > > '/services/webpages/t/h/thebackcarecenter.com/public/admin/'.$image; > > > > What did I do wrong here?
