simple problem, please advise 'parse' er

iriedodge

I am learning PHP, and I am using pretty much texbook examples but I am getting an error from this code, for the life of me I can see nothing wrong. Please advise 😉

this line is the trouble spot

copy ($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['tmp_name']),

this is the error

Parse error: parse error in /home/users/s/staffing/public_html/p/savefile.php on line 22

full code below

if ($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['size'] <= 0)

{
print "We did not recieve your file ";
print "either the file was larger than 2MB or you ";
print "did not enter a filename, if you are having ";
print "difficulties, or need to send us a file larger ";
print "than 2MB contact us at help@whitedotgroup.com ";
}
else
{

copy ($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['tmp_name']),
($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['name']);
print " Thank you for sending us your file we will deal with it promplty ";
print "-White Dot Group";

}

I think it should be:

copy ($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['tmp_name'], $http_post_files['uploadedFile']['name']));

Ops, not the last ")"..

copy ($http_post_files['uploadedFile']['tmp_name'], $http_post_files['uploadedFile']['name']);

I appreciate your help, but I am getting the same error, and that is exactly what is in the book. Any other ideas over welcome.

Exactly the same error? How does your code look now? I'm asking because I find it interesting that PHP didn't notice anything was wrong until right at the very end. This usually means that a } or ) or " or ' is missing from somewhere, but all the ones I see look paired off properly.

Unless line 22 is your copy(), in which case some lines are missing from your post.

Here is the code verbatim. The error is on line 24 now, simply because of spacing. you can see it in action. at http://users.npsis.com/~staffing/p/upload.html

Thanks Again In Advance For Assistance.
