Be sure to be careful with the $_FILES['userfile']['name'] array element. If the
client uploads a file that has an apostrophe in the filename it WILL NOT get set to the full name of
the file from the client's machine.
For example, if the client uploads a file named george's car.jpg the
$_FILES['userfile']['name'] element will be set to s car.jpg because PHP appears
to cut off everything before the apostrophe as well as the apostrophe itself.
This did not happen in some of the previous versions of PHP but I know that it happens in version
4.3.10 so watch out for this.
I thought this was a bug so I submitted it but it turns out that it is a "security
measure"
