Using copy to upload files

[Anon]

I thought I understood this but I guess not...

Through a form I want to select a file on my hard drive and upload it to my server.

Here's my code:

$path = "server path/images/";
if ($gif_file != "") {
@copy($gif_file, $path)
or die("Couldn't copy the file.");
}
"gif_file" is the file I selected on my HD

The "images" dir has been chmod to 777

I'm guessing I'm missing an upload component -

Any help ?

On this site there's a great upload script

"http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/bealers20000904.php3

all you have to do is change the path

Hope that helps

Another great script ids here:
http://blazonry.com/scripting/upload-size.html

It allows You to resize the images. It is only for jpg

To me it looks like you have an '@' where there should be one and I think PHP requires an absolute address in the upload as opposed to a variable

Don't forget to put the enctype and the max_file_size into your form. It should look something like this:

<form action="load.php" method="post" ENCYTPE="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
