note 52157 added to features.file-upload

I had some problems with uploading files because of the path .So to save you some problems. if you get an error like "failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ..." it's likely because your not specifing the full path of the directory you want to upload.In other words you need to specify the full path and not the relative path in the second parameter. Here is a small function to upload stuff. The files get their new name via last index from a database. <?php $name_tmp = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']; //read temporay filename $name = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name']; //read initial filename if(is_uploaded_file($name_tmp)){ $ext =explode('.', $name); $ext = $ext[count($ext)-1]; //get extension of uploaded file $index=getLastIndex();//costum function $path_parts = pathinfo(__file__);//get path info of curent php script $dir = $path_parts['dirname']."\\uploads"; //full path of upload directory $new = $dir."\\".$index.".".$ext; if(move_uploaded_file($name_tmp,$new)) echo "File transfer succesfull."; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+52157 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52157&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52157&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52157&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52157&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52157&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+52157&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
