move_uploaded_file function issue

[tomtimms216]

I am trying to upload an image from a form however it keeps saving with the image name twice.

 

move_uploaded_file($_FILES["artwork_1_image"]["tmp_name"],$target_path . $artist_last_name . '_1_' . $_FILES["artwork_1_image"]["name"]);

 

my image name is boston_smiley.jpg, so I want to store it in my directory with a prefix variable $artist_lastname_1_{{ the file name }}. What I am getting is

 

boston_smiley.jpgJohnson_1_boston_smiley.jpg instead of Johnson_1_boston_smiley.jpg

 

anyone know what's the deal!

I reckon that boston_smiley.jpg is still on the end of $target_path.

 

Just echo $target_path, so you can see what it actually is.

Thanks denno020, I forgot that i was appending to the variable up in my code and forgot to remove it. Thanks for the time.
