returns an empty string. Help please. below is the code:
<form entype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="patientinfoform.php3">
<input type="Hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="409600">
Image Left Ear: <INPUT TYPE="File" NAME="leftear" SIZE="20"><BR>
Image Right Ear: <INPUT TYPE="File" NAME="rightear" SIZE="20"><br>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="submit" VALUE="Submit Form">
</form>
<?php
//display uploaded file name and path
print("local file: $leftear_name<br>\n");
//copy uploaded file to a better dir than tmp
$move_dir = '/php/earshots/';
copy( $leftear_name, $move_dir . $leftear_name) ;
copy( $rightear_name, $move_dir . $rightear_name) ;
//afirm that the info has been added
echo "$firstname $lastname 's information has been submitted for review" ;

Uploaded files are always placed into a temporary directory and deleted when your script is done executing. If you want the files to be somewhere else, you have to move them yourself:

@copy($form_imagefile, $newpath_and_file_string);
@unlink($form_imagefile);

My TMPDIR is not setup by my hoster for PHP (it's null). Uploading doesn't work... what can I do?
