OH LORDY - READ THIS if you are separating your php script into separate files for organizational and/or size purposes. If you are using require() or include() and using file upload functionality within a function make sure you declare $HTTP_POST_FILES as a global within your function: <?php function finally_functional_function() { global $HTTP_POST_FILES; yaddi yaddi yadii return 0; } ?> because it just doesnt work without it regardless of what the documentation says about the variabvle always being global. This should save you 28 years+ of life. I know that when i started this it was 28 years ago,..and now finally I have solved the problem - dont be another victim!
