Hi,

Try making the changes that above user has mentioned.

Otherwise try this below script that works for my project

	

<input type='file' name='filename' size='25'>
<input type='hidden' name='action' value='fileupload'><br>
<input type=submit value='Upload File'>";

<?php

//Catching the variable value for upload script and setting the maximum upload size of a file.
$action = $_POST["action"];
$max_size = "1048576"; // Max size in BYTES (1MB)

if ($action == 'fileupload')
{
	if ($_FILES["filename"]["size"] > $max_size) die ("<b>File too big!  Try again...</b>");

		$location="./files/";
		copy($_FILES["filename"]["tmp_name"],$location.$_FILES["filename"]["name"]) or die("<b>Unknown error!</b>");
		$xlsfilelocation=$location.$_FILES["filename"]["name"];								
		echo "<b><br><br>File Uploaded.</b>";
		// for debug -->  $filename --> ".$destination."/".$filename_name."</h2>";
}
?>

Regards,

Abhishek
