Upload files with PHP [Resolved*3]

**NoteMe** · Apr 17th, 2004, 11:29 AM

And here we go again. More or less just me asking questions here now...

I found an example in my Beginning PHP4 book from wrox on how to upload files to the server. But the explenation is a bit hard to understand. Here is the code

PHP Code:


<?

//file_upload.php

$archive_dir = "./bildebox";

function upload_form() {

   global $PHP_SELF;

?>

<FORM METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="MULTIPART/FORM-DATA" 

   ACTION="<? echo $PHP_SELF ?>">

   <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="action" VALUE="upload">

   Upload file!

   <INPUT TYPE="FILE" NAME="userfile">

   <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="SUBMIT" VALUE="upload">

</FORM>

<?

}



function upload_file() {

   global $userfile, $userfile_name, $userfile_size, 

         $userfile_type, $archive_dir, $WINDIR;



   if(isset($WINDIR)) $userfile = str_replace("\\\\","\\", $userfile);

   

   $filename = basename($userfile_name);

   

   if($userfile_size <= 0) die ("$filename is empty.");



   if(!@copy($userfile, "$archive_dir/$filename"))

      die("Can't copy $userfile_name to $filename.");

   

   if(!isset($WINDIR) && !@unlink($userfile))

      die ("Can't delete the file $userfile_name.");



   echo "$filename has been successfully uploaded.<BR>";

   echo "Filesize: " . number_format($userfile_size) . "<BR>";

   echo "Filetype: $userfile_type<BR>";

}

?>

<HTML>

<HEAD><TITLE>FILE UPLOAD</TITLE></HEAD>

<BODY>

<?

if($action == 'upload') upload_file();

else upload_form();

?>

</BODY>

</HTML>

In my "public_html" folder, I have a folder called "klubbny", in that folder I have two folders. One called "oppdater" where I have this page, and one called bildebox, where I want to upload the file to.

What am I doing wrong here. I am getting the message:

Can't copy f.gif to f.gif.

Am my link in the top:

$archive_dir = "./bildebox";

wrong...should I write the whole path, or what. Not getting the path system here completly.

Thanks ØØ
