EKsparky Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I've got a basic upload script The idea is that you upload a picture to an album So i keep the script in galleries dir now in that dir there are other folders each of these is an album examlpe folder1 folder2 folder3 now my script works fine if i just upload to galleries but when i try to add an album var to the path it goes wrong It still up loads the picture but places it in galleries folder and rename the picture Example i upload ME.jpg it will appear in the galleries folder as folder1ME.jpg Heres my code <h3>File Upload</h3> Select a file to upload:<br> <form action="uploader.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="file" size=50> <br> Choose album: <input name="choose_album" type="text"><br> <input type="submit" value="Upload File"><br> </form> <?php $A_path = $_POST['choose_album']; if($_FILES['file']['name'] !="") { copy ($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], "galleries/$A_path".$_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 $_FILES['file']['type']; ?> </ul> <?php echo ''.$A_path.''; ?> <a href="<?php echo 'galleries/$A_path'.$_FILES['file']['name']; ?>">Click here to view file</a> </body> </html> Now echo $A_path near the bottom will infact echo album name so i was thinking maybe i am missing some punctuation in the 2 lines with the path Thanks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/93517-upload-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

deansatch Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Just out of curiosity, would move_uploaded_file() not be a better function for what you are trying to do?
