Perad Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 [code] $numoffile = 1; $file_dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/files/new/"; if ($_POST) { for ($i=0;$i<$numoffile;$i++) { if (trim($_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i])!="") { $newfile = $file_dir.$_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i]; move_uploaded_file($_FILES['myfiles']['tmp_name'][$i], $newfile); $j++; } } } [/code]I am the master of finding snippets of code :P. Anyway this is an upload script that i found which will allow the admin to add files to articles.What is $_FILES? I tried googling to find it but it takes out the $ out of search terms. I tried php.com but that just took to something else called "files"Could you tell me what it does? Can i use it to get the file extension and file size of an uploaded file?

obsidian Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 [url=http://us3.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.files]This page in the manual[/url] deals with using predefined variables such as $_FILES. You can also find information on exactly how to do what you're after on the [url=http://us3.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php]Handling file uploads[/url] page of the manual.Good luck!

arianhojat Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 if u have a html form which wants uploading...u add html form inputs where its type is set to 'file' which will browse to the file on your computer to upload (also if u want to upload in your form, dont forget to add enctype="multipart/form-data" to <form>).Example of html input:<input type="file" name="filename[]" /> Note: u can just use name="yourfilename", but i use an array in my example, (name="yourfilenames[]"), since my user can upload many things in same form, then when u submit, php can access the file(s) uploaded with $_FILES array...so in my php i loop through the $_FILES array and if their are no errors for that file which was uploaded, i move each from temporary upload folder on the server to a directory. But if u r only uploading 1 file, u dont need to loop over it to just move the 1 file.Here is some background on what could be in that Array... http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,106408.msg428434.html#msg428434Code Example:[code]<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /><title>TEST</title></head><body><?phpif( isset($_POST['submitForm']) ){ echo "SUBMITTING<br/>" ; foreach ($_FILES["filename"]["error"] as $key => $error) { if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) { $uploaddir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'\\testFolder\\uploads\\'; $tmp_name = $_FILES["filename"]["tmp_name"][$key]; $name = $_FILES["filename"]["name"][$key]; if( !move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, "$uploaddir$name") ) echo 'Couldn\'t Move File.'; else { echo "Yay Uploaded: tmp_name=$tmp_name, name=$name, type=$type, size=$size<br/>" ; } } else echo 'Couldn\'t Upload File'; } }//submitted?><form name="upload" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>">File to upload: <br/><input type="file" name="filename[]" /><br/><input type="file" name="filename[]" /><br/><br/><input type="submit" name="submitForm" value="Submit" /></form></body></html>[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/25303-_files/#findComment-115363 Share on other sites More sharing options...
