Re: Can I use $_REQUEST for file uploads?

Hi, Thanks for the reponse. I tested again, but it was not the problem with ENCTYPE. I am getting file with $_FILES. I think this is due to CGI configuration if not with php.ini. Because when I check the version by using "PHP -v" command, it shows "4.3.10 (cgi)" but when check that using phpinfo() function, it is showing as PHP 4.2.2. Why the difference? I am working in that view to find the solution. Currently I got a temporary solution. I am jsut copying from $_FILES to $_REQUEST at the very begining of the script. Because I can't change all the scripts now. Thanks, S.Srinadh.
