Sorry my message was cut off. Yes I want to scale to 300 x 200px before I upload the image to my folder. Here is my code so far. thanks, H. $imageinfo = getimagesize($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']); echo $x=$imageinfo[0]; echo $y=$imageinfo[1]; $newwidth = 300; $newheight = 200; // Load $thumb = imagecreatetruecolor($newwidth, $newheight); $source = imagecreatefromjpeg($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']); // Resize imagecopyresized($thumb, $source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight, $width, $height); // Output $myimage = imagejpeg($thumb); $target_path = "../property_images/$property_id/".basename( $_FILES['userfile']['name']); $img_url= $property_id."/".basename( $_FILES['userfile']['name']); if(move_uploaded_file($myimage, $target_path)) { /* echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['userfile']['name']).

    " has been uploaded";*/

} else{

    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
} 

After resizing the image you will have the newly created JPEG data (binary) in the $myimage variable, not a file(name). So you actually have to do something like: file_put_contents($target_path,$myimage); This will put the content in the $myimage variable ( the resized JPEG data) into the target path. Note that you should also check if the uploaded file is a supported image, so do something like : if($source = @imagecreatefromjpeg($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) { // file is a supported image type, resize it and save it } else { // unsupported image file or not an image file at all, // display some error here } Note: file_put_contents is a PHP5 only function, use fopen,fwrite,fclose for PHP4.
