Firstly, what is the filesystem that you're using, and the operating system. Windows filesystems are very limiting on what characters you can use. If you have it working with another file, have you tried renaming that to use characters which you think are causing the problems? Lastly, what exactly is the error code returned from the $_FILES array? Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
