Notice: Undefined index: file in...

Been having a few problems, I'm using PHP 5 and IIS 5

I'm following a tutorial in a book for creating an uploading facility. The two files are:

uploader.htm

<html><head><title>File Uploader</title></head>
<body><h3>File Upload</h3>
Select a file to upload:<br>
<form action="uploader.php" method="post" enctype="multiparty/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file" size="45">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Upload File">
</form>
</body></html>

and uploader.php

<?php
if( $_FILES['file']['name'] != "" )
{
copy ( $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],
"C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/" . $_FILES['file']['name'] )
or die( "Could not copy file" );
}
else{ die( "No file specified" ); }
?>

<html><head><title>Upload Complete</title></head>
<body><h3>File Upload Succeeded...</h3>
<ul>
<li>Sent: <?php echo $_FILES['file']['name']; ?>
<li>Size: <?php echo $_FILES['file']['size']; ?> bytes
<li>Type: <?php echo $_FILES['file']['type']; ?>
</ul>

<a href="<?php echo $_FILES['file']['name']; ?>">Click here to view the file</a>
</body></html>

uploader.htm works fine but when I click upload it gives me this error:

"Notice: Undefined index: file in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\uploader.php on line 2
No file specified"

Does anyone have any idea why it's doing this? I got this tutorial to work last week and for no reason it's stopped working :-( Thanks!

I *think* this is because u used

<form action="uploader.php" method="post" enctype="multiparty/form-data">

but ment to be

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

So that is multipart instead of multiparty.. Give that a go and see if that solves it :0
