Problems Copying File To A Newly Created Directory

[TecTao]

I can not get the copy() function to work.

 

It is a two step process.  First creating a new directory in the root of the web site.  This works fine.  The new directory name is an ID number for a member.  The second step is copying an index.php file from the directory where the page resides that completes this function.  The new directory is passed in the post from a previous page and the index.php file resides in the same directory.

 

code where $webpage is the ID passed from the previous page:

 

$webpage = $_POST[ 'webpage' ];

mkdir("/home/thissite/public_html/thisdomain.com/$webpage");

$NewDirectory = $webpage;

copy('index.php', '/home/thissite/public_html/thisdomain.com/$NewDirectory/index.php');

error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);

 

I can't really make head or tails of what the error log indicates

 

[26-Jun-2012 11:49:53] PHP Warning:  copy(/home/zipclick/public_html/marketingteammates.com/$NewDirectory/index.php) [<a href='function.copy'>function.copy</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/zipclick/public_html/marketingteammates.com/_ZABP_merchants/webpage/webpage_enter_submitted.php on line 23

 

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Look at the syntax highlighting of your copy() arguments. Variables are not interpolated within single quotes.

Thanks for pointing that out.

changed code is now

 

copy("index.php", "/home/zipclick/public_html/marketingteammates.com/". $NewDirectory ."/index.php");

 

works fine. Thanks
