Those of you looking for how to copy an uploaded file should look for this function instead: move_uploaded_file() It's described and explained under Handling File Uploads in the PHP manual (item 18). Advantages: - Secure: No worry, it won't copy anything but a file that was just uploaded - Bypasses safe mode and base_dir securities (the function is totally safe, no danger) - Takes care of deleting the file (actually it moves it, as the name implies) Tom :) -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.copy.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26859 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26859 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26859
