SWFupload (help with PHP part of the upload)

[gordon.c]

Hi

 

I am using SWFupload plugin and I need the upload directory to change dynamically.

 

The php code for this plugin is

 

<?php
$uploaddir = "./uploads/";
$file = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['uploadfile']['name']); 
$size=$_FILES['uploadfile']['size'];
/* ... */
?>

 

What I need is to put into the first line something similar to

 

$uploaddir = "./uploads/".$_REQUEST['current_selected_directory'];

 

so that files will be uploaded to current directory or directory I choose at the moment.

 

I tried to use $_REQUEST[] variables which apparently can not be read by the script, I also tried $_SESSION and even $_COOKIE. None of these variables is being read by the script.

 

Do you have any way how to solve this?

 

Thank you

Files handled by PHP are all temporarily uploaded the the upload_tmp_dir (PHP.ini setting), its the programmers' job to move them to a location of their choosing.  As it turns out there's a handy function for moving uploaded files around named move_uploaded_file.  Also, for future reference files are uploaded to a server via a HTTP POST method in most circumstances. 

move_uploaded_file( $_FILES["uploadfile"]["tmp_name"], $CustomPath . $filename);

Thx for reply, but I was kinda asking something else :-)

 

I need to know how to pass to the plugin some additional variables, please read my question again.
