Pic Upload Help!

[MoldRat]

I am making a file uploader and this is what I have so far:

if ($submit){
if ($type=='text'){

if (strlen($avtext) >= 36) {
echo "Your custom title is more than 36 characters long.<br>Please go back and fix it.";
exit;
}
$avtext=htmlentities($avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;b&gt;","<b>",$avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;/b&gt;","</b>",$avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;i&gt;","<i>",$avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;/i&gt;","</i>",$avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;u&gt;","<u>",$avtext);
$avtext=eregi_replace("&lt;/u&gt;","</u>",$avtext);
$newav=$avtext;
}

if ($type=='image'){



	            if (copy($avurl, "avatars/".$username."-".$avurl_name)) {
        $avurl_location = "avatars/";



		$avurlsize=getimagesize("avatars/".$username."-".$avurl_name);
		if ($avurlsize[0] == 0 OR $avurlsize[0] >= 61 OR $avurlsize[1] == 0 OR $avurlsize[1] >= 61 ) {
        echo "Your image is over 60 pixels, or nonexistant.";
        echo "<br>Please go back and fix this.";
        exit;
      }
	  $newav="<img src='avatars/".$username."-".$avupload_name."'>";
}

}

if ($type=='upload'){



	            if (copy($avupload, "avatars/".$username."-".$avupload_name)) {
        $avupload_location = "avatars/";

        //Deletes file in TMP directory
        unlink($avupload);

		$avupsize=getimagesize("avatars/".$username."-".$avupload_name);
		if ($avupsize[0] == 0 OR $avupsize[0] >= 61 OR $avupsize[1] == 0 OR $avupsize[1] >= 61 ) {
        echo "Your image is over 60 pixels, or nonexistant.";
        echo "<br>Please go back and fix this.";
        exit;
      }
	  $newav="<img src='avatars/".$username."-".$avupload_name."'>";
	  }

}
echo "Success.";
mysql_query("UPDATE `users` SET tittext='$newav' WHERE username='$username'");

Whenever I try to upload a pic, it says

Warning: Unable to open 'C:\Documents and Settings\Scott\Desktop\hi.gif' for reading: No such file or directory in /usr/home/sites/www.damakalaka.com/web/overboards/change3.php on line 99

Bump

Exercise: read the error message, try and rephrase it in your own words. What might it mean? Does it suggest what the problem is? Could someone work out a solution from it? [5 pts]

[MoldRat]

It means it cant read from the remote computer, but I had used it before and it worked. I cant figure out how to get it to upload.

[Weedpacket]

Right, and where is the script looking for the file you're wanting to read?

[MoldRat]

On the computer?

[MoldRat]

Anyone know? I need help fast.

[MoldRat]

GODAMIT!
I really need help!
If you dont want to help me dont post, I need HELP to FIGURE IT OUT. If I could SOLVE it I wouldnt ask for HELP, WOULD I?

[MoldRat]

Gah **** this never mind. If no one wants to help I guess ill just stop wasting my time.

[martincrumlish]

Maybe if you had some manners people might help you.

Firstly, which line is line 99 where the error occurs?

[martincrumlish]

You could do it with FTP:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<?PHP echo $PHP_SELF ?>" method="post">
<table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
  <tr> 
    <td>Image:</td>
    <td><input name="userfile" type="file"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload Image"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>
<?PHP

//web1
if (isset($submit)){
//your host IP address
    $conn_id = ftp_connect("10.***.***.***"); 

// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, username, password); 

$source_file = $userfile;
//path to upload directory
	$path = "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/yourdirectory/";
	$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $path.$userfile_name, $source_file, FTP_BINARY);
	echo "Upload complete<p>";
	ftp_quit ($conn_id); 
}
?>

This code works for me and then you could just integrate the rror checking you have in your existing script.

Try removing all the spaces out of your paths

...and wonder why it's trying to read a file on a Windows desktop when it's running on a Unix server.
