[SOLVED] very simple upload script?

[aximbigfan]

Hi,

 

The only thing that really confuses me in PHP is uploading. Coudl someone show me, bit by bit a very simple script? I don't need filtering, and thing fancy like that.

 

Every tutorial I have foudn wants to put in all these filters (can't be larger than XX, can't be .XXX, can't be...) and that just confuses me to death.

 

The reason  why I don't want filtering, is because I am going to be using it internally only, ie it's only me.

From php.net  http://us3.php.net/features.file-upload

 

the form:

<!-- The data encoding type, enctype, MUST be specified as below -->
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="__URL__" method="POST">
    <!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field -->
    <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />
    <!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array -->
    Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
    <input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>

 

Then the script:

 

<?php
// In PHP versions earlier than 4.1.0, $HTTP_POST_FILES should be used instead
// of $_FILES.

$uploaddir = '/var/www/uploads/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);

echo '<pre>';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
    echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
    echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
}

echo 'Here is some more debugging info:';
print_r($_FILES);

print "</pre>";

?>

I think this code will be very simple for you to do the uploading.Other validations can be done in the JavaScript also.
