check your coding, $tmpname isnt a variable. you havent given it any value.

[corillo181]

well i dont trust my eyes any longer so it still not wokring is it something i dont see?
[code]
<?php
include_once'../includes/db.php';
//get variable

$dir='../music/hmp/';
$filesize = $_FILES['sfile']['size'];
$filetype = $_FILES['sfile']['type'];
$filename = $_FILES['sfile']['name'];
$tmpname = $_FILES['sfile']['tmp_name'];
$pos = strrpos($filename, '.');
$newname = $song . substr($filename, $pos);
$filepath = $dir . $newname;

$result=copy($tmpname, $filepath);
if(!$result){ echo " a problem occur";
}
?>
[/code]

nothing?

[The Little Guy]

are you using:
[b]enctype="multipart/form-data"[/b]
in your form tag?

[corillo181]

yeah i am

the problme is in the code right there.

[The Little Guy]

is "[b]sfile[/b]" the correct name attribute from the form?

[JasonLewis]

and where is $song variable defined?

[corillo181]

yes it is..

like i said.. this code i took it from one of my already working codes.. i have it as a gallery in a website..

i just never used it to upload music..i was trying to see if it works with music but is not working.

[code]
<form action="../phpscripts/muls.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="ulmusic" id="ulmusic">
  <table border="0">
   
    <tr>
      <td>song_name</td>
      <td><label>
        <input name="song" type="text" id="song" />
      </label></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td><label>song:</label></td>
      <td><input name="ulfile" type="file" id="ulfile" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="UpLoad" /></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
[/code]
[code]<?php
include_once'../includes/db.php';
//get variable

$dir='../music/hmp/';
$filesize = $_FILES['sfile']['size'];
$filetype = $_FILES['sfile']['type'];
$filename = $_FILES['sfile']['name'];
$tmpname = $_FILES['sfile']['tmp_name'];
$pos = strrpos($filename, '.');
$newname = $song . substr($filename, $pos);
$filepath = $dir . $newname;

$result=copy($tmpname, $filepath);
if(!$result){ echo " a problem occur";
}
?>[/code]

[The Little Guy]

No its not...

[code]<?php
include_once'../includes/db.php';
//get variable

$dir='../music/hmp/';
$filesize = $_FILES['ulfile']['size'];
$filetype = $_FILES['ulfile']['type'];
$filename = $_FILES['ulfile']['name'];
$tmpname = $_FILES['ulfile']['tmp_name'];
$pos = strrpos($filename, '.');
$newname = $song . substr($filename, $pos);
$filepath = $dir . $newname;

$result=copy($tmpname, $filepath);
if(!$result){ echo " a problem occur";
}
?>[/code]

[corillo181]

nah i gave you the wrong code it still the same
[code]
<form action="../phpscripts/muls.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="ulmusic" id="ulmusic">
  <table border="0">
   
    <tr>
      <td>song_name</td>
      <td><label>
        <input name="song" type="text" id="song" />
      </label></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td><label>song:</label></td>
      <td><input name="sfile" type="file" id="ulfile" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="UpLoad" /></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
[/code]
[code]
<?php
include_once'../includes/db.php';
//get variable
$song=$_POST['song'];
$dir='../music/hmp/';
$filesize = $_FILES['sfile']['size'];
$filetype = $_FILES['sfile']['type'];
$filename = $_FILES['sfile']['name'];
$tmpname = $_FILES['sfile']['tmp_name'];
$pos = strrpos($filename, '.');
$newname = $song . substr($filename, $pos);
$filepath = $dir . $newname;

$result=copy($tmpname, $filepath);
if(!$result){ echo " a problem occur";
}
?>
[/code]

[JasonLewis]

hmmm... just querying, but shouldnt [code=php:0]$result=copy($tmpname, $filepath);[/code] be [code=php:0]$result = copy($filename, $filepath);[/code]

and why not try move_uploaded_file(), see if that makes a difference.

[corillo181]

tried that already..

i still get the not uploaded result.

man i tried anytihng it wokrs with picture but not with music why is that ?

Hi there,

Here is a brilliant file upload script i used for my tafe project, i tested it and it can upload just about any file format you just need to get rid of the file format restrictions up top

Here is the link: [url=http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp]http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp[/url]
