An alternative way I have used to ensure unique filenames during uploads is to assign each user a value, a username if that is applicable, or just a random number. Create the filename using a user's specfic value and also a timestamp, as logically a single user cannot be submitting more than 1 file at a time. This may seem a little unnecceassry however, if you are expecting a large upload quantity of files it will improve the processing time for each upload, imagine cycling through the loop written below for 100 or even 1000 files and checking each file exists. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 172.141.127.195 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68177 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68177 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68177 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
