PHP - Problem with POST files

[koanzen1940]

Hi everybody,

 

I have a server (lets call it S_1) running IIS and PHP over Windows 2008 and I'm trying to make an ftp from that server to a second server (lets call it S_2) through the users connected to de S_1 via http (website).

 

The clients go to S_1 through a browser (where is the web application) and they charge a picture file that should be transfer from their computers to de S_2.

 

The method used to send the file is POST, but the problem is that when I retrieve the PATH information of the file (using a client connection), It shows the file name but not the path. However, when I make the same test but openning the website from the same S_1, then it sends the file and the path complete.

 

The input that I use to locate the file is:

<input name="archivo" type="file" id="1"/>

 

The code I'm using to retrieve the file information is:

$_POST["archivo"]  ## Using PHP

 

I really appreciate all the help that you can give

Use $_FILES not $_POST when retrieving uploaded files from a file form field.
