PHP Upload Script Help

[eatfishy]

Below is a script that I have to upload files onto my website. The message shows that image is uploaded, but when I check folder, I don't see any images in there. I am not getting any error messages either. Please help me. Thanks.

 

 

<?php

include("Session.php");

//prepare a form similiar to this and have it call the below file

//echo '<form action="image_upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">';

//echo 'Click the Browse button to find the file you wish to upload';

//echo '<input type="file" name="imagefile">';

//echo '<input type="submit" name="upload" value="upload">';

//echo '</form>';

Well, you should start by reading the manual: http://us.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php

 

Next, I don't see this defined anywhere:

$web_location=$web_dir.$imagefile_name;

You don't specify anywhere what $imagefile_name is so it is just checking if the directory exists more than likely.

When you do assign a value to $imagefile_name, you need a slash and it would look something like this:

$web_location="$web_dir/$imagefile_name";

 

That should at least get you to the point where you'll start getting error message that will show you what to fix next.

Thanks for the fast response. I have read the PHP manual, but it wasn't too clear to me on subject about uploading with login. I figured out what the problem was, which really is the configuration of the php.ini setting. I need to change the temp directory in the php.ini and also include that temp directory in my ftp directory path. Hope this helps others as well.
