Re: Moving an uploaded file keeps failing

I encountered the same problem recently while working on my sites Fan Art section. There's a small error in the PHP manual which solves your problem. With the move_uploaded_file(); function, in the end string you need to put the actual file name as well.. e.g: $filename = $_FILES['userfile']['name']; $path = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/fanart/art/".$uid2."/".$filename; $tmpname = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']; move_uploaded_file($tmpname, $path); So in your case it would be: move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "/".$_FILES['userfile']['name']); I believe this should solve the problem, other wise i just pointed out something to fix ^^; - Daniel "TheHeadSage" Spain Founder of Voidsoft.
