Re: PHP File Uplaod Path

Dhaval, You really do not nee to be concerned about the temp directory, but if you are, you can wite a little script (if your not the sysadmin) to find this out. Actually it tells you a ton of useful info. Here it is: <? phpinfo(); ?> Name it phpinfo.php or whatever you like, upload it to the server and view it. I believe that PHP knows where to look to find the temp file. As far as moving the file once its uploaded, here you go: File to create the upload: (show_upload.php) <html> <head> <title>Upload a File</title> </head> <body> <h1>Upload a File</h1> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="do_upload.php"> <p><strong>File to Upload:</strong><br> <input type="file" name="img1" size="30"></p> <P><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload File"></p> </form> </body> </html> File to do the work: (do_upload.php) <? if ($img1_name != "") { copy("$img1", "/your/directory/path/$img1_name") or die("Couldn't copy the file!"); } else { die("No input file specified"); } ?> <html> <head> <title>Successful File Upload!</title> <body> <h1>Success!</h1> <P>You sent: <? echo "$img1_name"; ?>, a <? echo "$img1_size"; ?> byte file with a mime type of <? echo "$img1_type"; ?>.</p> </body> </html> This is taken from Julie Meloni's website.
