Image upload script issue

[aelouch]

Hello

 

I am trying to get the following script to work for uploading images to my websites images folder but keep getting the following error.

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/a9865238/public_html/uploads/upload.php on line 3

 

===============================================================================================

upload.html

===============================================================================================

 

<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

File: <input type="file" name="filename" />

<input type="submit" value="Upload" />

</form>

 

===============================================================================================

upload.php

===============================================================================================

<?php

$folder = “/home/a9865238/public_html/images/”;

if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_$FILES['filename']['tmp_name']))  {   

    if (move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_$FILES['filename']['tmp_name'], $folder.$HTTP_POST_FILES['filename']['name'])) {

         Echo “File uploaded”;

    } else {

         Echo “File not moved to destination folder. Check permissions”;

    };

} else {

     Echo “File is not uploaded.”;

$name=$_FILES['file']["name"];

$path=$_FILES['file']["tmp_name"];

$destination="upload/".$name;

 

move_uploaded_file($path,$destination)?"file moved":"file not moved";

}; 

?>

You are using fancy quotes

 

$folder = “/home/a9865238/public_html/images/”;

 

Change the quotes

$folder = "/home/a9865238/public_html/images/";

You have to pay attention to the correct quotes when copying code from websites.

This

$HTTP_POST_$FILES

should be

$HTTP_POST_FILES

Well, technically $HTTP_POST_FILES has been depreciated, you should review the following:

There was more, also you don't need a semicolon after the curly braces.

 

 

<?php
$folder = "/home/a9865238/public_html/images/";
if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_$FILES['filename']['tmp_name']))  {   
    if (move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_$FILES['filename']['tmp_name'], $folder.$HTTP_POST_FILES['filename']['name'])) {
         Echo "File uploaded";
    } else {
         Echo "File not moved to destination folder. Check permissions";
    }
} else {
     Echo "File is not uploaded.";
$name=$_FILES['file']["name"];
$path=$_FILES['file']["tmp_name"];
$destination="upload/".$name;
 
move_uploaded_file($path,$destination)?"file moved":"file not moved";
}
?>
