[SOLVED] More upload issues


Box

Recommended Posts

I seem to be having multiple issues with this.

 

		//deal with the uploaded file
		if($_FILES['attachment']['name']) {
			$target_path = "../attachments/";

			$target_path = $target_path . mysql_insert_id(); 

			if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['attachement']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
			    echo "The attached file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). 
			    " has been uploaded<br />";
			} else{
			    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!<br />";
			}
		}
		//stop dealing with the uploaded file

 

I am wanting the file to be named whatever the new auto id row is to stop any duplicate files being uploaded etc and this is a bit neater than a timestamp. when I echo'd: $_FILES['attachment']['name'] and $target_path . mysql_insert_id(); they came back empy but $_FILES['attachement']['tmp_name'] gives the temp filename. The code never actually enters the if statement (I commented it out and tested the code inside the if statment to check if that was sound but ran into the above problems)

 

Any ideas? Im hoping for something simple :)

 

thanks
