Upload Script

[Fallen_angel]

I am having a little trouble with my upload script , it will work fine provided the script is in the same folder as the uploads folder , however as soon as I move it into the admin section of my site which is where i want it it stops working ,  I have tried to play with the $destfile variable in the script bellow but what apears to be correct to me simply isn't workign so If somoen coudl have a look and tell me where i am goign wrong i would really apreciate it

[code]<?php
//
// did the upload succeed or fail?
//
if ($_FILES['avatarfile']['error'] == UPLOAD_ERR_OK)
{
  //
  // verify (casually) that this appears to be an image file
  //
  $ext = strtolower(pathinfo($_FILES['avatarfile']['name'],
                            PATHINFO_EXTENSION));
  switch ($ext)
  {
    case 'jpg': case 'jpeg': case 'gif':
    case 'png': case 'bmp':
      break;  // file type is okay!
    default:
      throw new InvalidFileTypeException($ext);
  }

  //
  // move the file to the appropriate location
  //
  $destfile = '../foldername/uploads/' . basename($_FILES['avatarfile']['name'] );
  $ret = @move_uploaded_file($_FILES['avatarfile']['tmp_name'],
                            $destfile);
  if ($ret === FALSE)
    echo "Unable to move user photo!<br/>\n";
  else
    echo "Moved image to uploads directory<br/>\n";
}
else
{
  //
  // see what the error was.
  //
  switch ($_FILES['avatarfile']['error'])
  {
    case UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE:
    case UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE:
      throw new FileSizeException();
      break;

    case UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL:
      throw new IncompleteUploadException();
      break;

    case UPLOAD_ERR_NO_FILE:
      throw new NoFileReceivedException();
      break;

    default:
      echo "say what?";
      break;
  }
}
?>[/code]

I know the script itself works fine as I can use it if they are within the same directory so I am pretty sure i have to be doign somethign wrong on the $destfile  line

thanx in advance to anyone that can help out

How silly of me I should have explained the dir structure aswell

home
          webappfolder
                            uploads  < ~~~~ files need to go here
                            .Admin  <~~~~~ script is run in here

Still having a bit of trouble with this , have played a little more with it now , but still it just won't work and i can't understand why

thanx again to anyone that can help

You need to post the error otherwise people will not know what to look for in your script.

dunno. try using copy(). i prefer to use copy(). also in there is $destfile supposed to be:
[code=php:0]$destfile = '../uploads/'.$_FILES['avatarfile']['name'];[/code]
thats if the script is located in the Admin folder.

[Fallen_angel]

$destfile = '../uploads/'.$_FILES['avatarfile']['name'];thats if the script is located in the Admin folder.


worked thanx allot !!  I coudl have sworn I tried that and it failed before but live and learn i guess

thankyou again
