Here's my code

            <form method="post">
            <table>
              <tr><td colspan="2"><b>Add new system</b></td></tr>
              <tr><td align="right">System name:</td><td><input type="text" name="name"></td></tr>
              <tr><td align="right">System Logo:</td><td><input type="file" name="file"></td></tr>
              <tr><td colspan="2"><input name='add_system' type='submit' class='button' tabindex='3' value='Add new system'/>
                <?php
                  if(isset($_POST['add_system'])) {
                      if($_POST['name']=="") { echo "<span class='dbstatusRED_text'>System name was left blank!</span>"; }
                      else {
                          include 'library/config.inc.php';
                          $conn=mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die('Error connecting to mysql');
                          mysql_select_db($dbname);
                          
                          $countquery=mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(name) as count FROM systems WHERE name='$_POST[name]'") or die(mysql_error());
                          $count=mysql_fetch_array($countquery);
                          if ($count['count']>0) { echo "<span class='dbstatusRED_text'>'$_POST[name]' already exists in the database!</span>"; }
                          else {
                              if(isset($_POST['file']) && $_POST['file']!="") {
                                  if($_FILES['file']['error']>0) { echo "<br><span class='dbstatusRED_text'>Error: " .$_FILES['file']['error']. "</span><br>"; }
                                  else {
                                      echo "<br>Upload: " .$_FILES['file']['name']. "<br>";
                                      echo "Type: " .$_FILES['file']['type']. "<br>";
                                      echo "Size: " .($_FILES['file']['size'] / 1024). " Kb<br>";
                                      echo "Stored in: " .$_FILES['file']['tmp_name']. "<br>";
                                  }
                              }
                          }
                          //$insertquery=mysql_query("INSERT INTO systems (name) VALUES ('$_POST[name]')") or die(mysql_error());
                          echo "<span class='dbstatusGREEN_text'>'$_POST[name]' added to the database!</span>";
                          
                          mysql_close($conn);
                      }
                  }
                ?>
              </td></tr>
            </table>
            </form>
