[Resolved] I need so much help! (upload script)

Dax

first of ALl, im sorry i dont have time to look for a post like this one.

I have a PHP book, and im very new, in the book it gives me a nice simple script: (which i edited to my own needs)

########book script################

<?

if ($img1_name != "") {

@copy("$img1", "http://www.atba.us/uploadbin/img1_name")
	or die("Couldn't copy the file.");

} else {

die("No input file specified");

}

?>

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Successful File Upload</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<H1>Success!</H1>

<P>You sent: <? echo "$img1_name"; ?>, a <? echo "$img1_size"; ?> 
byte file with a mime type of <? echo "$img1_type"; ?>.</P>

</BODY>
</HTML>

###########end of book script###############

i had made a form and named the input="file" and named it img1, the script didnt copy. and all i did was change the @copy to my website, and i changed the message it gives when succesful.

And then i thought of finding another script online, so i downloaded, a little script package, BUT It was sooooo confusing!! (CHECK OUT THE ATTACHMENT)

it has 2 php scripts, ones like a class (i have no idea what that means) and other is an example php, so i made this... here is the address where i uploaded it to: http://www.atba.us/uploadbin/attachment.php , now try to upload something there... it gives an error!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME, THX FOR YOUR TIME, GREATLY APPRECIATED! 🙁

Here is the source code for attachment.php (http://www.atba.us/uploadbin/attachment.php)

Also what does HTTP_Post_files mean??? Also how can i change this script so that it uploads to the directory http://www.atba.us/uploadbin ????

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Upload logo</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
<p>Upload your company logo to our directory:</p>
<? 
require ("clsUpload.php"); 
$upload = new Upload(&$HTTP_POST_FILES); 
$upload->maxupload_size = 2000000; // 2,000,000 bytes, or 2mb 

$myroot = "http://www.atba.us/uploadbin/";

$field1_filename = $upload->getFileName("file1"); 
if ($upload->save($myroot,$field1_filename ,true)) 
{ 
echo "Upload save sucessful.<BR>"; 
} else{ 
echo $upload->errors; 
} 
if ($upload->saveAs("new_".$field1_filename,$myroot,"file1",true)) 
{ 
echo "Upload saveas sucessful."; 
} else{ 
echo $upload->errors; 
} 
if ($upload->isPosted) 
{ 
echo "<BR><BR><b>Some details about the upload:</B><BR>"; 
echo "Filename: ".$upload->getFileName("file1")."<BR>"; 
echo "Mime type: ".$upload->getFileMimeType("file1")."<BR>"; 
echo "File size: ".$upload->getFileSize("file1")."<BR>"; 
} 
?> 
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> 
<input type="File" name="file1"> <br>
<input type="submit" value="upload"> 
</form>
</body>
</html>

Use the super globals array $_FILES ...

Try this...

<? 

if ( $_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'] != '' ) {

@copy( $_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], $_FILES['img1']['name'] )
    or die( 'Could not copy the file.' ); 

} else { 

die( 'No input file specified' );

} 

?> 

<HTML> 
<HEAD> 
<TITLE>Successful File Upload</TITLE> 
</HEAD> 
<BODY> 

<H1>Success!</H1> 

<P>You sent: <?=$_FILES['img1']['name']?>, a <?=$_FILES['img1']['size']?> 
byte file with a mime type of <?=$_FILES['img1']['type']?>.</P> 

</BODY> 
</HTML>
