Re: upload _ safe_mode

Hi! There are a few more options these days and php4.0.5 will be even friendlier safe mode file uploading (so I hear from reliable sources.) Through some discussion in #php , this use was proposed (by onki) : $tmp_name = $HTTP_POST_FILES["userfile"]["tmp_name"]; move_uploaded_file ($tmp_name, "/home/httpd/html/upload/example.zip"); chmod("/home/httpd/html/upload/example.zip", 0644); And it worked! move_uploaded_file is the key here. Haven't personally tried it as the safe mode server I have access to is 4.0.2 and it is a .3 function. What I do/have done is get/got a script called chuid from here : http://www.srparish.net/scripts/ It must be installed by sysadmin. Then, users do something like this : ... <input type="file" name="file"> ... passthru ("chuid $file 1033"); @copy("$file", "/path/to/uploads/$file_name") or die ("could not copy file $file_name"); Something like that. The above is the users uid which can be echo'd in shell like this : echo $UID Regards, Philip Olson http://www.cornado.com/ be outside the box.
