Re: File uploads and handling

[embarrassment] Thanks all. Of course it was a dumb thing I was doing. I didn't give the absolute path when "moving" the uploaded file. I got it to work though! [/embarrassment] ~Philip On Oct 28, 2004, at 9:40 PM, Robby Russell wrote:

I have a form to upload a file from a user's computer to the server. I want to then modify the file, and then let the user save it back. However, I am having troubles opening the file. It says it doesn't exist. Any suggestions? ------- if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['name']))

     $handle = fopen($_FILES['userfile']['name'], "r");

     echo $filename . " was not uploaded properly";

In the above you are only referencing the *filename* and not the actual uploaded file itself.

but somehow it's not uploading. Ideas?

Read manual > Handling file uploads to see how it all works.

Yeah, that was not useful at all. That's what I originally looked at. If anyone has some "code" that shows how to reference the actual file, then that would be helpful. I have pulled my hair out long enough over this one. I did try this, but nothing changed (b/c it's just an array): if (is_uploaded_file(_FILES['userfile']))

     $handle = fopen($_FILES['userfile'], "r");

Tips would be wonderful. Thanks!
