File upload issue -- works in some places, not in others!

JasonC221

I'm attempting to utilize an upload script I wrote. Here's the situation:

The script works fine. I can successfully upload things at my house (56k, firewall) and at school (broadband of some sort, more than likely firewall). But at work, I can't upload a thing.

At work, I select the file(s) I want to upload and click on the button to submit the form. It goes to the page that handles the actual upload and does nothing. The files don't get uploaded.

I've narrowed it down to something wrong with my computer at work. So my question is - has anyone experienced this? Is it a firewall issue (I tried two different software firewalls and no firewall at all)? Is it some sort of cable-modem issue? Any ideas?

FTP uses port 21 - check it isn't being blocked.

Or try a different browser (or resetting the settings of the one you're using).

It's not using FTP (although I'm using FTP as a work-around right now), it's using a multipart post form.

I'm going to try a different browser but I haven't had a chance yet. Any other ideas?

Does the ['error'] code change to something other than 0 when at work?

Simply do print_r($_FILES) and see if any of the file information is different between your requests at work and home (like the error code).

I assume the problem has to do with the browser so trying different browsers is a good idea.
