First off, I am very much a novice when it comes to PHP so talk to me like I am an idiot [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /]

I have a script that uploads a file to my webserver and places a link to it in the database (MySQL)
It stopped working recently and if I remember correctly nothing has changed on my webserver

php-4.3.9-3.9.i386
mysql-4.1.12-3
httpd-2.0.52-22

Here is the script:

[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--]if(!empty($_FILES["userfile"])) {
$uploaddir = "/home/www/fisher/docs/seminarphp/admin/photos/"; // set this to wherever
//copy the file to some permanent location
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["userfile"]["tmp_name"], $uploaddir . $_FILES["userfile"]["name"])) {

echo("file uploaded");
} else {
echo ("error!");
}
}
$picturename = $_FILES["userfile"]["name"];
mysql_query("UPDATE reserve SET picture='http://www.mywebserver.com/seminarphp/admin/photos/$picturename' WHERE uid='$rvar_choose'");[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]

I don't see "File Uploaded" or "error"...

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kyle

Here is the form that gets filled out to add a new Speaker to our Seminar database:

I am not sure if it makes a difference, but you should process the upload before output to the browser.

There is also a function is_uploaded_file()

It will return true if a the file was uploaded
