uploading files

[weekender]

I'm having some trouble... i have an upload form which passes a file upload to script upload.php, which contains the following

<?php
    if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {
	printf("Filename: %s",$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tempname']);
	move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "/home/sites/site57/web/painthero/");
}   else {
	print"Error! File not uploaded!";
}
?>

This is just a simple move command, to a directory which is chmod'd to 777, but i keep getting the following errors...

Warning: Unable to create '/home/sites/site57/web/painthero/': 
Is a directory in /home/sites/site57/web/painthero/upload.php on line 4

Warning: Unable to move '/tmp/phpkFQMgI' to 
'/home/sites/site57/web/painthero/' in 
/home/sites/site57/web/painthero/upload.php on line 4

Please help! i'm getting desperate...

You must include the filename of which to move the image to, not just the directory.

$name = $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name'];
move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "/home/sites/site57/web/painthero/$name");

Note: Reading the manual makes for easier coding.
