Re: image file prob

For starters, PHP throws away any uploaded files when the script finishes to avoid a denial of service attack where somebody can overflow your /tmp by uploading over and over. You have to copy the files in the first script, and pass *those* locations on to your next page. -- Visit the Zend Store at http://www.zend.com/store/ Wanna help me out? Like Music?
