[Resolved] Newbie with simple file_exist question !

[ErocM]

I have the following code:

<?

if (file_exists($superdat)) {die(print "The file $filename already exists.  Rename it and send it up again.");}


if ($superdat_name != "") 

{copy("$superdat", "/home/em/public_html/upload/files/$superdat_name") or 

die("Couldn't copy file.");

} else 

{die("No input file specified.");}

?>

I get this everytime regardless if it exists or not.

The file test.txt already exists. Rename it and send it up again.

I am new to PHP and I am just creating a simple way for printscreens to be sent up. This did work till I added file_exists also.... Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks,
ErocM

try it with

file_exists("/home/em/public_html/upload/files/$superdat_name")

you need to give the full path and name to the file on the server
