what i ment for example to  echo 'www.link.com/file.com/whatever.zip'";

Yeah, after you've uploaded it you have the filename so you could just go:

 

echo "http://www.link.com/file/".$_FILES['filebox']['name'];

 

Once you have uploaded the file, you should have the directory and the name of the file. It shouldn't be too hard to echo out the address of the file.

Once you've "uploaded" the file you MUST use move_uploaded_file() because in it's original uploaded format it's nothing more than just a tmp file which will get deleted shortly thereafter.
